New years

Well, just to keep track on my resolutions. I have tried two and failed so far.
I failed at making it into the first play and we attempted to potty train Samuel and failed. He did it for about 2 weeks but by the end he was having more accidents than successes. After talking w/Marci I realized that was normal and to try again later. He seems to be okay w/that and is still confused about the whole thing. Like today he voluntarily sat on the potty and peed. But he won't consistently. And super-nanny says she hates those parents who do both diapers and underwear. Soooooo we'll try again later.

And as far as the play goes....I'll try that again later too.

But I have succeeded at the work thing. I have nearly finished my dad's filing. And I have had great success w/the family history job. I have, over time, and lot's of brain damage (headaches from not getting up to drink water or eat bcse I am so excited about what I am learning and finding) , found the Furber family line clear back to the year 1505!!!! 14 generations form Samuel! It was sort of lucky bcse they are all from the same town in England. But I had to draw the connections and verify it w/several other sources. But it all makes sense now! Yay, for success and some failures in between!

  1. That is really cool. I don't understand much about how to do geneology. I should really get started on that...

  2. Congratulations on the family history! That's really awesome. I remember the day Matthew's dad entered my info into thier geneology. That's when I really felt like part of the family.

  3. I have been really slow at accomplishing my list of resolutions too. I have started almost all of them but get tired of them and let them lie. ARGH! Anyway, our den is a mess because I haven't put the projects away either. The first one was family history for me too. Let's talk, okay? Maybe I could get some pointers from you. I can't believe how fun it is! Don't give up on the other ones. They will happen.
