My Genealogy Sunday and Monday - 2 and 3 April 2017

These were not full genealogy days for different reasons.  The weather was nice too - high around 75 and sunny.  The mouth is feeling OK, have the check-out-the-root-canal appointment on Tuesday.

1)  Sunday, 2 April:

*  Read email and blogs while watching Meet the Depressed, and then off to church at 9:40 a.m. Home by 11:30 a.m.

*  Wrote and posted Updated information on Family Tree Maker 2017 Release, and finished up the Best Of blog.  Went in to eat lunch, read the paper and watch TV.  Took a nap watching game shows.

*  Online at 2 p.m. to read, started the new Best Of post, and noted that Best of the Genea-Blogs - Week of 26 March to 1 April 2017 posted.  Checked Facebook.  Transcribed the probate records for Monday.

*  Went out at 4 p.m. to mow the rest of the back yard - knee high weeds and grass.  Whew.  Came in at 5 p.m. to cool off and watch TV, have dinner, and wash dishes.

*  Online at 6:30 p.m. to read, noted that Added or Updated Databases at Ancestry.com - Week of 26 March to 1 April 2017 posted, and wrote the Amanuensis Monday post.  

*  Answered email, added to the Best Of post, and checked Facebook.  Watched WDYTYA the Jessica Biel episode.  Genealogy this day was 7.0 hours.

2)  Monday, 3 April:

*  Dropped Linda at the Y, home to read email and blogs, picked her up at 8:45 a.m. and home before 9.  Joined the Mondays With Myrt hangout and talked a bit about RootsMagic sync features.  

*  Added to the Best Of blog, noted that  Added or Updated Record Collections at FamilySearch.org - Week of 26 March to 1 April 2017 and Amanuensis Monday -- 1692 Probate Record for Abigail Young (1628-1692) of Eastham, Mass. posted. Took a nap, and had lunch, and checked email and blogs before 1 p.m.

*  Went in at 1 p.m. to watch the Padres/Dodgers game from L.A.  Padres lost 14-3 so we're 0-1 on the season.  It was worse last year, we lost 16-0 in the opener to the Dodgers.  Pitching will suck this year, I fear.

*  Online at 4 p.m. to write Found - Sarah (Knapp) Auble (1818-1904) Death and Burial Records.  Checked Facebook and answered email.

*  Went in at 5 p.m. to eat dinner, and did dishes, then watched the NCAA basketball championship.  Read email and blogs at halftime.  NC won 71-65 but it was closer than that.  

*  Online at 8:40 p.m. to write the Treasure Chest post for Tuesday, then added to the Best Of post and wrote this post.  Genealogy this day was 6.5 hours.
