Sounds a bit too graceful to be me!

Today has been "a day" ... had four annoyed patients in succession ... (only one had an actual point). Luckily the docs and nurses were lovely today and patient with me as the other admin went home sick. I may hug the couch for a bit though to recover!

Told at work today I know the weirdest shit ... so good to know I've still got it!

It'll get validated eventually but at the moment it's too small for me to concentrate on

Because of the 2FA looking on my phone annoys me, and having the app on the phone would mean I'd get distracted too much!

there's a potential thru line match but it' only to my dad (not to me because it's too small) suggesting she's a half 6th cousin to him. Which puts our MCRA born around 1735 - I've not validated my line out that far so I won't be looking further at this point. It's too small a match.

update ... she's a #DNA match

....

it's 10cM

🤔

Starting to think I was being unreasonable, but it's really quiet here and I want to know.

I won't put the app on my phone or I would get nothing done!

I had a new message at Ancestry notification email this morning, I've been stuck in work and can't check it; it's really bugging me!!

Does anyone else have the same lack of patience as me?!

Ah ... I must admit I'm finding it difficult to catch up as the feed doesn't seem to show all mentions, and the search i just found a bit chaotic. Will have to keep trying!

Petition: Decriminalise Abortion I am calling on the UK government to remove abortion from criminal law so that no pregnant person can be criminalised for procuring their own abortion.

Between 1861 and 2022, three people were prosecuted in England and Wales for getting an abortion. Since 2022, at least seven people have been prosecuted. We need to decriminalise abortion properly.

this was my thought too!

It was the reMarkable 2 10.3" Paper Tablet .... basically to replace the multitude of notebooks I have around the place and better organise my scribblings when researching!

Yep, decided it's a tomorrow problem....!

From the high hopes that I can treat myself to some new tech that may or may not have been influenced by @miagen.bsky.social during the #EscapeToThePast weekend (hosted by @fiona-memories.bsky.social and Mia) .... to the depressing low that is an email from HMRC with my tax bill.

Damn It.

Extract from the 1921 England Census showing where born column. The answer written is Somewhere. North Wales.

When your son-in-law reports where you were born ...
So helpful!

I know, I'm very unimpressed!

See you soon

Going to wander down to New World and get some supplies for @lhm2213.bsky.social and myself. Then was just going to find a cafe for a quick cuppa and finish some UK job things as he actually sent me stuff to do today 😑

Let the fun begin :)

I've just landed and managed to get on the right bus!

I had a "lively discussion" about this at work the other day ... I think they concluded I cared too much!

How can something that scares me look so cute and happy in this post?!

You can tell the kind of day I'm having at work today!!!

Or even tomorrow evening .... i can do timezones!

*shame*

Just checked into my flight for tomorrow though, so that helps!!

Hope everyone has a good #GenHour this evening. (Posted early as I'll be working)

I'm currently working through my mum's top #DNA matches to try and place them on the tree, and getting side tracked by the fact a lot of them also match my dad!!

What are you working on?
