My Semi-Genealogy Weekend - 4-5 November 2017

Well, the weekend kind of flew by without much happening.  My football teams won every game they played, though.

1)  Saturday, 4 November:

*  Dropped Linda off, home to read, left for Marie Callenders at 7:50 for 8 o'clock breakfast, I was late.  We finished Genesis finally.  Only 8 months or so.  On to Exodus.  I get to do that.  Picked up Linda at 9:45 and to the store for groceries.  Home by 10:20 a.m.

*  Noted that Surname Saturday -- HALE (England to colonial New Jersey) posted and wrote Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - What Genealogy Resource Are You Thankful For?

*  Answered email, added to the Best Of post, and had my nap.  Had lunch.

*  Online at 1 p.m. to read, then worked in FS Family Tree for awhile matching folks with RootsMagic profiles.  

*  Wrote the Ancestry and FamilySearch posts.  TreeShared the RootsMagic database.  Worked on the CVGS Newsletter, and sent it to the reviewers.

*  Watched football, had dinner and read the paper.  Set the clocks back an hour.  Online at 6 p.m. to read, work some more in FSFT, and look at MyHeritage DNA matches.  Worked on the Bible study outline.

*  Went in at 7:30 p.m. to watch the SDSU game - Aztecs beat San Jose 52-7.  No worries!  Came in during the second half to read AJs book, Facebook, etc.  Genealogy today was 5.0 hours.

2)  Sunday, 5 November:

*  Read email and blogs before church, left at 8:15 for the 8:30 service.  Home by 9:45 a.m.  Finished up the Best Of post, then worked on the Bible study outline.  Left at 10:45 for my meeting at church and home by 11:45.

*  Watched football, read the paper, had lunch, and dozed in the recliner.

*  Online at 1 p.m. to note that Best of the Genea-Blogs - 29 October to 4 November 2017 posted, then worked on the Amanuensis transcription and blog post for Monday. 

*  Finished up the CVGS newsletter.  Worked a bit in AncestryDNA matches adding notes.  I've lost about 6 matches with Hints due to the new privacy policy.  

*  Went in at 4 p.m. to watch football, but back online to check Facebook and answer email.  Went in at 5 p.m. to eat dinner and watch TV news.  

*  Online at 6 p.m. to note that Added or Updated Ancestry.com Databases - Week of 29 October to 4 November 2017 and Added or Updated Record Collections at FamilySearch.org - Week of 29 October to 4 November 2017 posted.

*  Emailed the CVGS newsletter.  Worked in Ancestry Hints adding content and sources.  Resolved about 250 Hints.  Checked Facebook.  Wrote this post.  Genealogy today was 7.0 hours.
