This was a pretty full genealogy day. It was cooler again today - high in the mid-70s here, I think. Woke up with no pain but a tender lower left side and a cut in my lip crease from all the tubes and stuff.
* Dropped Linda at the Y, came home to read, picked her up, and home by 9:10 a.m. Noted that Visiting St. Joseph, Michigan in 2011 - Post 434 of (Not So) Wordless Wednesday posted. Read blogs, added to the Best Of post, and answered email. Lay down to rest my eyes at 10:40 a.m.
* Awoke at 11:30, so went without lunch and got to the library by 11:50 a.m. for the CVGS Research Group. We had a good meeting. Home by 2:30 p.m.
* Read email and blogs, then worked in GenealogyBank awhile finding Seaver obituaries. Looked at Ancestry Hints and saw Eva Jones, so tracked her cause of death in San Diego down in GenealogyBank and found her second husband too. Wrote Every Little Bit Helps - And Creates Another Challenge. Checked Facebook.
* Went in at 5:30 p.m. to eat dinner, read the paper, watch TV and put the trash out.
* Online at 7 p.m. to read, wrote the Treasure Chest post, then worked in the Ancestry Hints on the Amos Underhill tree to add content and sources to my database. Sources now at 77,344.
* Checked Facebook, and wrote this post. Genealogy today was 9.5 hours.

My Semi-Genealogy Tuesday - 11 October 2016
Well, this day didn't turn out the way I planned. The dentist visit was a disaster.
* Dropped Linda at the Y, home to read email and blogs, picked her up, and we went to the store, and home by 9:40 a.m. Noted that Treasure Chest Tuesday -- 1930 U.S. Census for the Dykkesten Household in Chelan County, Washington posted.
* Tried to nap, but had to leave at 11 a.m. for the dentist office. In the chair by 11:30, they were supposed to fix my loose crown on #18. After an X-ray, they found decay and decided I needed the tooth pulled. They suggested an implant or a bridge. I decided on the bridge, so they took the crowns off #17 and #19 too. Then they pulled #18 (it took almost an hour since the tooth was short and soft by that time). Then they put a bone graft in the hole, sewed it up, and gave me a temporary bridge. I left just after 3 p.m. with a prescription and a big bill. Stopped at the pharmacy for my medicine, then home by 4. I missed lunch, so had some apple sauce to tide me over. My mouth was sore, and my lip where the tools rubbed on the corner.
* Online to read email, and blogs, then wrote Tombstone Tuesday - Children of John Ellis and Leah (Bound) Seaver.
* Went in at 5 p.m. to watch baseball, we ate dinner, I watered the front plants, read the paper, and more baseball.
* Online at 6:30 p.m. to read, add to the Best Of post, write the Wordless Wednesday post, and resolved 55 Ancestry Hints adding content and sources to the database. Checked Facebook. Wrote this post. Genealogy today was only 5.0 hours.

My Semi-Genealogy Weekend - 8-9 October 2016

My Semi-Genealogy Saturday and Sunday - 1 and 2 October 2016
This was a really busy weekend because the three grandchildren were here. I got veryl ittle done in genealogy until Sunday night. It was also a terrible San Diego sports weekend - everybody lost.
1) Saturday, 1 October 2016:
* Dropped Linda at the Y with Charlie, home to fix breakfast for the kids, then picked up Linda, and home by 9:15 a.m. I didn't sleep well (Charlie was up 4 times, so I got maybe 5 hours in 5 segments...) so I napped from 10 to 11. Played with the kids, and we all had lunch.
* I left at 12:30 p.m. for Bonita library for the CVGS Workshop. I put together a LOCKSS presentation about backing up files, and was the first one up at 1:15.
* Had to come home by 2 so I could take Linda and the girls swimming at Barbaras. Charlie and I watched football and I napped, and read some of Sandy's book. Went to get the girls at 4 p.m, they changed and we left at 4:45 p.m. for Lolitas for dinner (Lauren had Subway, Audrey and Charlie had McDonalds).
* Home by 6 p.m. to watch football (SDSU was playing) and Padres (at Arizona. SDSU lost and Pads lost too.
* After Charlie went to bed, I read Sandy's book, then checked email, blogs and Facebook but didn't journal. Tired. Genealogy this day was 1.5 hours.
2) Sunday, 2 October 2016:
* Only up 3 times in the night with Charlie. He takes a bottle and goes back down - I was ready with backup bottles this time. Got the kids fed in the morning, Linda went to church with Barbara, and we packed up and were ready to go at 10:45 a.m.
* We left at 11:15 a.m. for Carlsbad to meet James, and got there right at noon. Ate lunch at In n Out, then transferred the gear and the kids, and we were home by 1:30 p.m.
* Watched the Chargers game, and switched briefly to the Padres. Chargers lost 35-34 to New Orleans after leading 34-21 in the 4th quarter. Another big fail on offense, defense and special teams. Now 1-3. Padres lost to Arizona 3-2, so ended the season at 68-94.
* Online at 5 p.m. to note that Best of the Genea-Blogs - 25 September to 1 October 2016 posted. Wrote the Added or Updated Databases at Ancestry.com - Week of 25 September to 1 October 2016 post and the FamilySearch post for Monday.
