My Geneaholic Thursday - 9 October 2014

It was a stay at home Thursday, and I got al ot done with no baseball games on TV.  Cooler too, hit about 80F today.

*  Read email and blogs, then wrote Treasure Chest Thursday - Post 235: 1755 Marriage Record of Norman Sever and Sarah Read.  

*  Practiced the Probate presentation - came in right at 60 minutes.  Probably 10 minutes too long, but I did some edits during the practice.  Will talk faster...that always works, but isn't ideal.  I need to find my benchmarks so I can tell where I am during the talk.

*  Worked on Finding NYGBR Images Using PERSI on FindMyPast.com before and after lunch, but didn't post it until after the Mocavo Hangout.

*  Watched the videos for Preserve the Pensions and wrote Watch Videos Highlighting the Preserve the Pensions (War of 1812) Digitizing Effort.

*  Worked on the 52 Ancestors post and set it for Friday morning.  Checked Facebook and Google+ and Twitter.  Answered some email.  Add to the Best Of post.

*  Went in at 5 p.m. to eat dinner and watch TV, read the paper, then washed the dishes. 

*  Online at 6:30 p.m. to read, add some slides to the Fun talk, and then worked in the database adding content and sources.  Got through the Her surnames.

*  Checked Facebook for Audrey news (she is adapting...), read email and blogs, and wrote this post.  Genealogy today was 12.5 hours.  Whew!  Longest day in awhile.
