My Genealogy Weekend - 7-8 May 2016

This was not a big genealogy weekend, due to Padres and other activities.

1)  Saturday, 7 May 2016:

*  Went off to the Men's breakfast at 8 a.m. and home by 9:30 a.m.  Read email and blogs, and noted that Surname Saturday - BRIGGS (England to colonial New England) posted.  Wrote the SNGF post, then off to Costco for Mothers Day flowers.  Linda liked them.

*  Added to the Best Of and NGS posts, had lunch, and took a nap.  Online at 3 p.m. to read, note that Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - A Favorite Photo of Your Mother and check Ancestry.

*  We left at 4 p.m. for El Pollo Loco to get Linda's dinner, then took the trolley to Petco Park, in our seats by 5:20 p.m.  Padres lost 6-3 to the Mets, so now 13-18.  Draft.  Home by 10 p.m.

*  Read a bit, but didn't journal.  Got a good nights sleep for once.  Genealogy this day was 3.5 hours.

2)  Sunday, 8 May 2016:

*  Read email and blogs while watching TV, went off to church at 9:30 and home by 11:30 a.m.  Wrote the Ancestry and FamilySearch posts, then got the CVGS Newsletter done and out to the reviewers.  Noted that Best of the Genea-Blogs - 1 to 7 May 2016 posted.

*  Went in at 1:40 p.m. to watch the Padres game, dozed a bit, and read the paper.  Padres lost 4-3 to the Mets, so 6-4 on the homestand and 13-19 overall.  Off to Chicago.

*  We left after 5 p.m. for Lolita's for dinner, then to Ralphs to shop, and home by 6:30 p.m.  Noted that Added or Updated Databases at Ancestry.com - Week of 1 to 7 May 2016 posted.

*  Worked on the Amanuensis transcription, but interrupted by the home improvement discussion big time.  The garage issue is coming to the forefront.  Finished the Amanuensis Monday post finally.

*  Added to the new Best Of post, checked Facebook, and wrote this post.  Genealogy today was 3.5 hours.
