Found this half-started post cowering in the corner of a folder and realized I should probably take it out and dust it off since we’re halfway through the month and all. Let’s see where I’m at below. But if you want the Cliff Notes version: day-job has really gotten in the way.

Genealogy Research

Progress on past goals:

Got my DNA test back from 23andMe. No shockers. European ancestry. Not sure where I’ll take it.

For July:

Dig up more dirt on the Hansford side of the family. And by dirt, I mean information.

Write & Publish

Progress on past goals:

We have the Hansford Reunion coming up in early Aug. I’ve got data and the first draft of a framework. Is it on track? No, but getting there.

For July:

Finish stuff for Hansford Reunion. Currently includes massive chart people can comment on/update and a written piece.

Education

Progress on past goals:

Research free online courses. Didn’t happen.

Make a plan for completing some. See goal above. Since I didn’t research, wasn’t anything to take.

Did attend seminars presented by the Tacoma-Pierce County Genealogy Society seminar featuring Laura G. Prescott and the Seattle Genealogical Society Seminar featuring Colleen Fitzpatrick. Good stuff! Also managed to get a GeneaBlogger’s Radio in a couple weeks ago.

For July:

None. I really just need to get the Hansford family stuff done.

Run the Business/Business Development

Progress on past goals:

Get my professional profile written-dang nabbit- and submit for posting on local chapter of APG website: done!

Develop a report template for myself.

For August:

Develop a report template for myself. Because, realistically, it isn’t going to happen in July.
