My Genealogy Sunday - 31 December 2017

Well, this is it for 2017.  An interesting year in many ways.  Genealogy wise - it was a year of no major ancestral discoveries, but a lot of little ones.  This was not a big genealogy day.

*  Read email and blogs while watching Meet the Depressed.  They were.  Went off to church at 9:30 a.m. and home by 11:20.

*  Transcribed the two probate record pages for Amanuensis Monday.  Noted that Randy's Best Genea-Musings Posts for 2017 posted.

*  Went in at 12:30 p.m. to eat lunch, and watched football, and read the paper.  Watched the Chargers game - they beat Oakland 30-10 in hopes of a playoff berth - they finished 9-7.  However, none of the three things that had to happen did, so they didn't make the playoffs.  Oh well.

*  Online at 4:45 to read, and proofread the transcription.  Noted that Best of the Genea-Blogs - 24 to 30 December 2017 posted.

*  Went in at 5:15 to watch TV news, finish up cooking and eat dinner, then washed dishes.  

*  Online at 6:30 p.m. to read, noted that Added or Updated Record Collections at FamilySearch.org - Week of 24 to 30 December 2017 posted, then wrote the Happy New Year post and the Amanuensis Monday post.  

*  Went in at 8:15 to watch the ball drop at 9 p.m. and read my book.  Boring - the ball drop, not the Patterson book.

*  Online at 9:05 p.m. to check Facebook, then wrote this post.  Genealogy today was 4.0 hours.
