@CliffWade It's an errand morning for me. I have to drive across town for something, so it's over a hour of driving, enjoying my favorite music and the journey. And the redbuds!Plus more work on the blog to get a post done. I went down a rabbit hole yesterday and have finally decided it really is not important to the story to know what job a "rostvändaren" did at the copper smelter. But enquiring minds always want to know!#GoodMorning #Today #Sweden #genealogy

@CliffWade That is so cute. It's a button and apparently is called Button Up and is in the old garment district.Sunday is a recharging day for us. We will make a grocery run at some point and put gas in my truck. I finally came up with a title and angle for my languishing blog post. Kissing Cousins will be posted today for the social media prompt. Next prompt is outcast.#GoodMorning #Today #genealogy

@CliffWade @kylewritescode I collect magnets and they mostly hang out on my fridge. They generally reflect where I've lived, worked or visited. They are easy and inexpensive to pick up at airports and gift shops and simple to store, LOL.My DH loves the animal butts. My state map travel collection constantly reminds me where my travel gaps are.#Collection #Magnets

@CliffWade #GoodMorning #Today is another research and #genealogy blogging day. Working title is Speechless in Sweden.The huge work project went live yesterday, so today I'm feeling lack of pressure and that we're moving to a new phase. I'm almost giddy.And I'm reading Dreamland, a Nicholas Sparks novel that came off hold a couple of days ago. I do enjoy his NC stories, from ocean to mountains.

@CliffWade Thanks.Tech blogging topics could be hard to think of. Genealogy blesses us with never-ending relatives to write about. 😁

@CliffWade #GoodMorning It's a back-to-work Monday and, having conquered the crazy Wordle, it's time to think about the rest of the day. And trust me, nobody wants to hear about those 9 hours!I still have to finish my in-process #genealogy blog post, so that's my evening goal. I just have to avoid the many rabbit holes.

@CliffWade My blog target is one per week. I'm working on a prompt for week 7 and should be on week 13. I need to double up for a while, but keep going down those rabbit holes. #genealogy is full of them!The prompts help. Otherwise I drift and get nothing written.Wordle is still fun as long as I ignore the ads. Today was a word that must have been thought of by a tween.

@CliffWade #GoodMorning #Today is the day my team does manual server patching for the finicky ones that need special handling. It'll be evening when we start, making for a long workday.Current work project is creating and populating a vendor-neutral database so we can swap out a critical old system and also anticipate future swaps.Then if I have any energy or desire, it's more Swedish #genealogy research.

@CliffWade #GoodMorning Due to illness in the household, I've cancelled all my appointments for the day and have an empty flex Friday to enjoy.That means focused research and blogging time!Good to see you are inspired for blogging, too.

@CliffWade #GoodMorning #Today I am looking forward to a Zoom call with a good friend in Phoenix that I have not seen since 2019, pre-Covid. She uses FB, which is not my thing. I am will try to entice her to check out Mastadon. Wish me luck!

@jcrabapple @CliffWade I'm with you guys. Sleep is harder the more I age. We use subliminal sleep messages under music for 90 minutes at bedtime. Plus Melatonin for me (and the cat).Nothing is perfect, for sure. It's waking up to spinning thoughts at 3 am that sometimes ruins my sleep.

First #Caturday post here. Melody is a torbie with tons of catitude. She hates to be ignored at mealtime and with the time change, she is being extra pushy this week.

We just watched part one of Ken Burns' series, The American Buffalo, on PBS. It is another beautifully done piece and also a sad commentary on how capitalism and racism destroy our world. Recommend. #PBS https://www.pbs.org/kenburns/the-american-buffalo/

Well, #today I must go to the office for a mandatory meeting which should be held virtually. Few will be masked. There will be food and drink. Spread is high for COVID and other respiratory infections right now. Why does management think this is a good idea!?My mask will stay on for the 3 hours. I prefer to be hungry and thirsty than invite infection for myself and my high-risk husband.#COVIDisNotOver
