Saturday Night Genealogy Fun -- A Genealogy Day In Your Life

Calling all Genea-Musings Fans: 

It's Saturday Night again - 

Time for some more Genealogy Fun!!

Come on, everybody, join in and accept the mission and execute it with precision. 

1)  How was your genealogy day?  Tell us about it - what genealogy-related activities did you do today, yesterday, or another day this past week? Researching, summarizing, transcribing, analyzing, writing, etc.

2)  Share your selected genealogy day in your own blog post, or in a Facebook, SubStack, BlueSky or other social media post.  Leave a link to your post on this blog post to help us find your post.

Here's mine:

I chose Friday, 13 March 2026 because I could recall most everything I did.

I woke up at 5:15 a.m., and read my email and blogs, worked the Wordle puzzle, and had my banana.

In the genealogy cave at 6:15, I proofed my three blog posts for the day, and added the Infographic and video overview to my AI post.  

Time for breakfast at 7:30 a.m., oatmeal with raisins, and read the sports section of the newspaper while watching TV news.  

Online again at 8:30 a.m., I investigated the Ancestry Photos Insight feature and wrote Exploring Ancestry's Photo Insights Feature - Henry A. Carringer's Land Patent.  I had Claude write the ABC Biography for tomorrow, and set off the Google NotebookLM to generate the visuals. Reviewed the biography for errors, and wrote the blog post including the visuals (except for the narrated presentation - I need to do that soon). 

Then it was off to the Chula Vista Library qt 10 a.m. to get a book to read before bedtime.  It was the Book Sale today and the entry hallways were packed - I got three best sellers by Grisham, Sandford and someone else for $3 total.  I went to the grocery store for food and was home by 11 a.m.  Ate lunch and rested my eyes.

Back online after 12 noon to add content to Facebook for my blog posts, then tried out several of Steve Little's challenges on Vibe Genealogy.  Went in at 1:30 p.m. to get my feet up, watch TV news, and rest my eyes some more.

Online again at 2 p.m. to work some more on my AI presentation for GSSCC in three weeks.  I have most of the slides done, and added several more slides with graphics. Had to find the backup for the handout for the talk in my computer files because I had a computer problem several days ago.  That wasted about 30 minutes, but I finally found it and was able to save it and edit it some more. Put the handout into Google NotebookLM to generate visuals. 

Added my AI post to my Substack blog, reviewed blog posts on Feedly, answered email, and checked Facebook, and watched some reels (I love Nina Conti, Britain 's Got Talent, the Young Sheldon snippets, the country girl singers, and Mike and Joelle).  

Went out in front of the house and weeded some of the rose bush areas and fake grass margins - it's never ending in winter time.  It was over 90F again today.

Oops, dinner time, so I nuked my TV dinner, ate and watched War Porn on TV, then the World Baseball Classic, and read the newspaper.  

Back online at 6:15 to write the FamilySearch post, edit and update the Photo Insights post, add to the Best Of post, and write this post.  Decided the SNGF topic, and wrote this post. Watched the end of the USA vs. Canada baseball game. 

At 8:30 I went in to do my recliner exercises, walk 500 steps around the house, read social media, and then read my book before bedtime.  

A pretty boring day, eh?  Five blog posts, some research, presentation work, some food and dozes, a little exercise. About 7 hours of genealogy-related work, not all of it productive.   Sometimes there's more excitement.
