As we took down the Christmas decorations and cleaned, I just had to move around the furniture. Clears the mind…
It’s harder than I thought to buy houseplants in the winter. I traipsed around town looking in the usual spots– grocery floral departments– and even tried a new place (to me) Fresh Thyme, but found nothing. Finally I went down the street to my neighborhood store and bought an orchid and a kalanchoe. Later I went by Zeidler Floral and picked out some tiny plants for my Wardian case and a lovely jade plant just because.
I’m still on the lookout, so if you know a good spot to shop, tell me!
Mostly, though, I have slaved over at the Ancestry blog writing up Casey’s family. Remember last year when I started my subscription to ancestrydotcom and said I’d use it for about six months and let it go? Well, my last post was in July and I was just about to cancel it when I decided I should give Casey’s family a shot. I started seriously studying in October, but there was so much research to be done—300 years of it — and then came the holidays so I decided to wait until Now to write it up and get it published.
I plan a series of a dozen or so posts and I probably should publish them weekly, but I’m in love with the story and don’t think I can hold back. I tried to post four last night, but it didn’t go well and I was up until 3am un-doing and re-doing. >sigh< One at a time will work best…
So I cordially invite you to visit All My Ancestors and follow along as I trudge through another January digging up the roots o our Family Tree…
Start right here with Preface
Peace
