My genealogy day - 27 October 2011

The days of October are falling faster than the leaves off the trees, it seems...and the hurrier I go, the behinder I get, it seems.

*  Read email and blogs, checked Ancestry to see if my free subscription was registered yet (no...), and wrote Treasure Chest Thursday - Alma Seaver's 1962 Autopsy Report.

*  Got into FTM 2012 again, and made a nine generation book - failed again.  Wrote Exploring Family Tree Maker 2012 - Post 12: How Big a Book Can It Make?  The answer seems to be at least six or seven generations with lots of notes, and maybe eight.  I think it's funny that nobody but Russ and Caroline seems to care...but I will press on!  It's good blog fodder, if nothing else.

*  Decided to work on my FORUM column that's late, and got quite a bit done today.  Need to proof it again and do a little more research. 

*  Checked in on Ancestry.com subscription and I'm good to go after nudging the AARP lady.  Sent Class 1 handout to the students, and called the two that didn't attend Class 1.

*  Wrote RootsTech 2012 Genealogy Conference Video and then Off My Chest: Give Me One Column for Reading Online Magazines.

*  Added the Bradstreet data from the Eva Kempton Volume 2 book to the database, and sourced appropriately. 

*  Went in at 5:30 p.m. to watch the ball game,m eat dinner, read the paper, read NGSQ, and start a new book as the game went on for over 4.5 hours.  Good game.  Got the dishes done between innings.

*  Online at 10 p.m. to read, add to the Best Of post, check Facebook and write this post.

Genealogy today was 9.0 hours.
