Really? A Month? Yeah A Month! BUT....

It was worth it, at least for me.  I have gotten so much done in my office.  I've now gotten EVERYTHING that was laying around all scanned.  Much of it is named, cropped and linked.  But there is SO MUCH MORE to do yet.

I do have some "non genealogy" stuff around that needs to get put elsewhere.  I did get my closet all re-organized which I've been needing to do since I moved in 7 years ago.  I love my plants so there's probably way too many of them in here as well.  Everything in this office is "me"... plants, photo's ... you know, STUFF.

How much stuff do you keep in your office that isn't genealogy?  We won't even go into the book shelves, full of all my genie books.  I need to go thru those next...

NEXT?  Yes, there's always another project in the works?  Mine include cleaning up my sourcing and  going thru all my books to see if I missed any gold mines since my last flip thru.

I "attended" the Legacy Family Tree Webinar on sourcing in Legacy.  I never knew it was so easy.  My sources were done on my own, and now after seeing how easy Legacy has made it,  I want to convert all of mine over.  Sadly, that project will be one slated for another time, as it will be a major undertaking.

Maybe all this is the forerunner to my spring cleaning - with all the snow we had its made for a long winter here in Michigan.  I'm looking forward to spring SOON!

Thanks for waiting for me to return!  What have you been up to while I was working on my project??

What Do You Mean I Can Attend Classes In My Bunny Slippers?

Its snowy and cold here in the metro Detroit area.  I mean its so cold you really don't want to go out.  So here I sit in my office, surrounded by my genealogy books,  my computer and so much I want to get done.  I've always heard that when you stop learning you die.  Learning seems to be the key to longevity - keeping your mind active.

Well, now you don't have to go out in the snow and cold - you can stay home at your computer in your bunny slippers and learn! Yes, I said LEARN!  Webinars are just the greatest thing!  What better way to learn new genealogy stuff than in the comfort of your home, with your slippers on, a cup of tea or coffee and you're ready to go.

I'm excited (and registered) for the long list of webinars that Legacy Family Tree is sponsoring.  It doesn't get much easier than this!  Not only at home, but FREE.   Did I mention FREE?

It's so easy - first you go to LegacyFamilyTree and check out the fabulous line up of webinars on tap for this year.  They've made it easy to register, you can even do it for multiple webinars at once!  Once you register they send you a notice and then a reminder the day of the webinar.  It will even walk you thru setting it up.  Its a no brainer! 

If you don't see anything that you want in the current year there's an entire batch of archived webinars you can get into.  These are on DVD and available for purchase at very reasonable prices.  You can even attend a live webinar and get the coupon code for a discount on merchandise which could be used on something in the Archive site.

No, you don't have to use Legacy Family Tree Software to attend.  There are a few that are "Legacy" specific, but most are genealogy specific rather than software specific.  Take a second and check it out.  You'll be so glad you did!
