Where does the time go? It sure does seem to fly by when it comes to having time to do the fun things, like scrapping, genealogy, reading, blogging etc. But when it comes to the countdown for Mitch to come home, that seems to operate at a slower pace :)
We are now at 38 days and counting. It is almost time to really start sorting through things, and deep cleaning. Mitch is a much better housekeeper than I am - so I need to step up my game before he comes home :)
Lately, I've been all about the genealogy - spending tons of hours over at ancestry.com doing research on the various branches of Mitch and my family. I have recently discovered some photos of ancestors that other genealogy buffs had posted to their family trees, including the headstone for Mitch's second great grandfather. I also discovered that for years, I had selective dyslexia when it came to my Grandfather's middle name. I have always written and said it as Byron, but recently my eyes uncrossed and I discovered it is actually Bryon.
Brett seems the most interested in the findings, but he is mainly hoping that we have an interesting outlaw hiding in the family tree. I'm fairly sure we are just a normal American family, with normal ancestors, but I'm not going to dim his enthusiasm with the truth just yet!
