I am still here!



Readers...

 I am still here. 
I am just taking a break from my normal posts as I try to figure out where I want to go from here.  

 When I started out giving links to resources where people can find about their ancestors, I honestly didn't think I would find enough to last blogging for a year, and here we are soon to be four years running. 

 This past year was such a busy blogging one, with my Canada 150 series plus regular weekly posts, I didn't have much time for anything else.  One thing I did accomplish this past fall was I wrote and published a short book about Menopause.  With four daughters approaching the age I thought it may be helpful to relate my experiences, with a touch of humour. Now there are a few genealogy projects I want to take the time to explore and get off the ground. 

 I do have a couple of family genealogy dilemas I will run by you, perhaps one of my readers will have an idea how to help me solve them. And I will post from time to time, just not as usual or as regularly. For now.


Thanks for following...

 Dianne

    I understand Dianne and don't know how you have kept it up for four years. You've given us a wealth of links to help with our genealogy.
    There are times when we need to step back and have a good look at what we are doing and you have more than earned this time off the tread mill...
