This morning, I was walking with Ron and his grandson. We walked about 4 times around the neighborhood. Ron is slipping and I know his grandson sees it. He's spending a lot of time with him and getting things done. They came to take photos of the house to put on the market. I just wish I could afford it, but don't want to go back in debt for it.
I spend the afternoon working on the family tree. I started out fixing a couple of the MATHESON family and then went to check on my TAYLOR family since I am trying to figure out how someone is a cousin to me. I think it goes back to Robert Taylor, whom I can't get out of NY. I did find that we have Nelson in the family name, and wondering if the Nelson buried in NY is connected after all. So, I did some digging, and I worked on the Findagrave.com stuff as well. Added a couple names and worked on others. I did find that my Taylor family was in Menominee, WI around the time Patrick's family was there. I often wonder if they might have known each other. It would be fun to find out. I also wonder if there are family members buried up there in MI as well. I will keep working on it. Some of the family moved to CA, so I know I have the right contact information on one cousin.
After that, I decided to enjoy watching TV. We watched "Finding Your Roots," which I love watching. I keep hoping someone will have my family tree to theirs. Wishful thinking but would be fun if they did.
It's been a quiet day. Talked to mom and Georgie was there. She wanted mom to remind me to bring hummingbird patterns on Friday. I haven't told them I'm not coming on Friday. Too much is wanted of me between Georgie, Nancy and mom. I do need to get that stuff to Nancy and I will. Just not there yet. I don't want to dig for hummingbird patterns just yet either, so I'm not going to bother. Plus, Friday is casino day, and I'd rather go there.
I wasn't Happy Quilting, but I was Happy Digging!
