For approximately one hour, on Monday morning, I reverted to my old habit of genealogy while enjoying my first mug of coffee. (One week without Ancestry was torture.) For Father’s Day, I’d like to give “Mr. Red” the answers regarding his third-great-grandfather. During the night of May 3rd, the dream was so vivid, I arose and quickly scribbled the details (so I wouldn’t “forget”). That scribbled note, at my computer, had been tempting me to “climb the family tree.” On Monday, the search was effortless—and I documented the process with several images. The completed image (below) was attached to several individuals. Here is the comment I added:  One can dream, can’t one? I hoped for valuable new information… The name “James Richard Tiner” was previously unknown to me. Our brain is a miraculous computer and my brain might have “seen” information that I missed.

.

Furthermore: During the process, I had my first experience with the newly released 1950 Federal Census. ~~~ I suspect the reader is saying—or thinking—the word spoken by one of my neighbors: “Boring, boring.”   (Yes, he said it twice.)

I may not get “a good night’s sleep” (most nights) but I won’t complain about a busy brain.

Repeat: “(One week without Ancestry was torture.) For Father’s Day, I’d like to give “Mr. Red” the answers regarding his third-great-grandfather.” ~~~ In anticipation of an answer to my questions, I searched for appropriate clip art. ~~~

Confession: It has been so discouraging to search for “a piece of the puzzle”  and NOT find it!!

Reworded: Lorraine’s life is worthwhile because of diversity.

I “crated” (lol)  books back into my trailer home. I’m not ready to give them away!!

.

I worked in the carport until it was “too hot.” Then I fell victim to an old habit—the old addiction!! Yes, I started “climbing the family tree.” I was shocked to see that I added one-hundred-twelve individuals… The new folks were added to family members already documented in my tree. Conservatively, each individual—new and previously documented—received five “sources.”

Did you see the image I published at 7:15 this morning?

Ronald McDonald House Charities indirectly saving lives. Read about the pop-tabs project. One small gesture from the mother of three sons.

Enforced change of pace.

This tired old lady gets off to a slow start each morning. No pictures this morning but (believe me) it was hot all night—and the air-conditioner was “on” all night. “Change of pace” and “change of mind” for outdoor projects—including the removal of pop-tabs in the shade of the carport. I may need to start my day at 6:00 AM?! ~~ Look, eighty-one degrees indoors this afternoon—and I’m lethargic while indoors.

MAGA “mom” is really one of the most extreme [individuals] that’s existed in American history.

Last night, on FOX News, an alarming message by Mark Levine—regarding the New York Times.

Movie in theaters on May 12th (one day only): The Harbingers of Thing to Come. Based on the best-selling books with similar title(s) authored by Jonathan Cahn.

I wanted to post a link to the interview of Jonathan Cahn by Eric Metaxas but was unable to locate a link to the TBN broadcast on Sunday evening May 8th.
