PAY ATTENTION!!

Didn't pay close enough attention to the schedule for today, got up early and went to work. What I thought was a 10:00 start was in reality a 2:15 start. Walked back home and got in the computer.
The last few months I have been researching the family tree. Being an old history buff it has been a great direction for that interest. A lot of the information that I have, was handed down to me from others, on my Mom's side of the family. It was a great start, but I found that information varies a great deal, depending on which side of the family it comes from. I discovered a great site, Ancestry.com, and in using this site I have run into family that I did not know exsisted. Most of the family still resides in MN but I also made contact in Oklahoma and New York. My Mom's side of the family was fairly easy to find info on, my Father's side has been another story all together. All of the previous generation has passed on so no first hand information is available. I did make a contact through Ancestry in Sweden that may prove to be informative, I can only wait and see.
I also have been scanning into the computer, all of the boxes of pictures I have accumulated over the years. If I had realized what a chore it was going to be I probably would have paid someone else to do it. It is not only time consuming but tedious. The only saving grace is that I have Photoshop Elements to ease the task. I think my daughter is about to end my life because of the amount of time I spend on the computer.
Enough chatter for now.
Later...
