My Genealogy Day - 1 July 2015

The first day of the second half of 2015.  Where does the time go?  I look at my list of blog posts and see that I've written 489 so far this year on Genea-Musings - about 2.6 per day.  I look at the list and say to myself "how does that happen?"  Well, I get up, read, write, research, enter data, and repeat all day long until I go to bed.  The exception is lunch, dinner, and Padre games.  When you spend 8-10 hours a day doing this you can write 2.6 posts a day!

*  Read email and blogs, and wrote Visiting the Statue of Liberty -- Post 366 of (Not So) Wordless Wednesday.  Wrote Free Access to the Revolutionary War Collection Through July 15th and set it for later.

*  Worked on the syllabus for the OASIS class and got them done.  Still have to do the presentations.  There are always changes every quarter.  New websites appear, etc.

*  Left at 11:10 for McDonalds for lunch, then to the library to sit in on John's group and get a book, then to the CVGS Bored meeting, and it was.  Got home by 2:40 p.m. and watched the end of the Padres game.  Got a good doze too.  Pads lost 7-90 to Mariners, so now 37-43 and off to St. Louis and Pittsburgh now.  That should be fun.

*  Online at 3:30 p.m. to read, and worked a bit on the industry stats but couldn't find what I wanted.  Drat.  Wasted an hour and a half.

*  Went in at 5:20 p.m. for dinner and watch TV, then put out the trash.  Online at 6:10 p.m. to read, write Search 13 Colonies Vital Records on Ancestry.com FREE Through July 5 and then wrote four posts on the CVGS blog and started the July newsletter.  Took a break at 8 to show Linda how to use Gmail.  A lost cause I fear.  

*  Checked Facebook and had very few posts in my feed for some reason.  Maybe a reboot will help.  Or not.  Read blogs, then added to the Best Of post.  Wrote this post.  Genealogy today was 11.0 hours.
