Wow! Premiere! I managed to get #Gelbi in a grip in which he couldn't move and "let" my wife cut his claws. And even afterwards he didn't take off, but stood with me! 😯😎

#Gelbi ended up crashing and clinging at the 3D-tiled wall, directly after bathing, instead of flying back to the cage downstairs like usual. Normally, he only ends up there, when going upwards without too much light. The first time he did it today, I didn't see him there for a few minutes. I […]
- managed to bathe #Gelbi
- found out, what went wrong with @hinterzarten_news, before another round of posting outdated content
- finally done with the emails I wanted to complete by Sunday

@afelia says, that one starting point to defend democracy and to keep your sanity is appreciating positive things, so: belated #3GoodThings:
- really annoying "let's check your work" meeting this week resulted in the checking department wanting to use our workflow as blueprint for others and our […]

Belated #3GoodThings
- received the marriage record of Wilhelm #Hercher https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Hercher-27 which I had ordered three weeks ago. The right margin is full of side notes 😍

- bathed #Gelbi in the morning and cuddled with him in the evening
- fixed some things in #WikiTree BEE as well as for @grabsteine and @OnlineOFBs
#ThreeGoodThings #CompGen
Level of being lost and confused: I snoozed the alarm for "changing water at #Gelbi and #Graui" several times and was annoyed, that I only could snooze for one minute at a time. Suddenly a second alarm for the birds shows up. Oh right, the first one actually was the tea timer and not the one for […]

- bathing and cuddling with #Gelbi
- managed to do a #grandma recording in the morning and some research this evening

- managed to create #WikiTree profiles for at least 2 direct ancestors during […]
- Our county replied, that they will consider including #Mastodon, after I wrote them in the weekend (town hall said, they forwarded the email internally). Meanwhile I have a bot almost ready to post the county news automatically until they make up their minds.

- went grocery shopping after work […]

Fluffy but slightly wet green/white monk parakeet sitting on a yellow blanket, which covers my knee. His feet are positioned at different altitudes, since he's leaning on my hand, which shapes a C around him.

- did some coding to improve #WikiTreeBEE's handling of #Wikipedia redirects when searching locations at […]
[Original post on genealysis.social]
Yesterday, while walking my imaginary dog through a street in the neighborhood, an elderly woman with an actual dog asked me, if I live in the house that sometimes has blue/green light inside. She wanted to know, if we had snakes or lizards, because they usually need such light. I had to […]

- managed to stop working after 6h and managed to work a bit on my inbox

#3GoodThings #ThreeGoodThings
#3GoodThings from yesterday:
- the classified ad I put up for parents' old heating apparently led to a sale
- archive enquiry led to a promising "no, but ..."
- cuddling with #Gelbi in the morning and in the evening (when he also bathed)
#ThreeGoodThings
The day was pretty lousy in terms of energy and achievements, but I still managed to come up with #3GoodThings
- received two warm and caring emails from two #genealogy friends
- someone said they might visit an archive for me
