Resolutions

A new year always seem to come with resolutions… This year I am endeavoring to master ancestry.com … Today was day one. I made quite a bit of progress on my family tree, and am exhausted. I have hopes to work on it a bit each day and by July 1, to have most of the information I have in my paper files added to my ancestry.com family tree.

I admit to having started this tree on ancestry’s site in 2009, and to having made very little progress since. To facilitate a better effort, I have prepaid for 6 months access to their resources, which are many. I have found more information just today than in the past few years… not that I was really looking you understand. But, I am looking now!

I also wanted to find a way to add some of my family tree info to this web site … So, that’s on the “to do” list too. So far it seems you need a plug in … which requires a business wp account so that’s not going to happen. I am the queen of work around solutions and have designed a few web sites in my day so let’s see if I can figure out a way to present my family tree information here. And in such a way so that only my family or those I wish to can see it. I must learn more about privacy settings and how to make parts of my site accessible by password…. so much to learn.

First things first though, I am still learning how to blog… Not something I ever thought I’d be doing. Ever. But here I am…

Here’s to 2021 everyone! Wishing for an end to the pandemic; a return to “normal” or to a “new” normal that we can all live with! Stay safe! Keep learning!
