As you can see I didn’t get around to categorising the uncategorised posts. I spent the weekend getting the flat tyre fixed, visiting the doctor, washing the car, trying to organise some of the material in my family history files and scanning and touching up more photos I found. I want the files fairly well [...]

Categorising
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged categories, tyre, work on 28 August, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I wonder if I’ll have the time this weekend to go over my uncategorized posts to try and figure out what a category might be.
In the meantime I’ve got 2 weeks’ worth of Spanish homework to do, as well as the usual professional blog post search and housework, etc etc.
Oh, and a flat tyre to [...]
Dental woes

Well, I thought after yesterday’s completion of the root canal that that would be my last visit to the dentist for a while. How wrong was I!
After the root canal I had an appointment to see the hygienist. She was very good, explaining everything, and pointed out how bad my gums had got from gum [...]
Snowballing!

I’m excited. I’ve just had an email from a fellow researcher on my grandmother’s maternal line – more gaps to fill in! I’ll be busy this weekend (if not tonight).
I’ve had contacts from two researchers who are researching the same families I am – brilliant! This is through Genes Reunited.com. Unfortunately I’ve had to pay [...]
The week that wasn’t

Well I didn’t go to either belly dancing or Spanish this week after all. Daughter’s boyfriend’s parents were staying over on the Tuesday night – it would have been rude to walk in at 9pm then go to bed at 10pm. Then yesterday I had a massive headache and couldn’t face mucking around for an [...]
Not doing what I should but doing what I want
Posted in home, interests, tagged family history on 17 August, 2009 | 1 Comment »
The weekends are so short that it’s always tempting to do something I enjoy doing as against something that needs doing. I’m terribly irresponsible that way.
I should have searched for a topic for the professional blog I contribute to. I didn’t.
I should have written up the minutes for the AGM. I didn’t. I wrote a [...]
Testing posting by email
Posted in interests, tagged Wordpress on 13 August, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Thanks to fellow blogger, I’m trying out this feature of posting via email. It looks disgustingly easy. If this works it means I can update my blog without specifically visiting WordPress and promptly forgetting what I was going to blog about. Yay! Be prepared for any number of trivial updates throughout the day (or not!).
Instructions [...]
Out of the habit

It’s strange how the more you blog the easier it is. Not having updated for a while, I’m struggling to think of something to write. This is after I had thought of something to blog about last week but didn’t get the chance to.
I suppose a run-down on the past couple of weeks will do.
Belly-dancing: [...]
