Jeff, I'm so sorry for all the problems that you have been having. That's almost too much for one person to have to bear! It really must be something in the stars! You'll be in my thoughts and I'll be wishing you all the best!

Sue, I noticed that after I'd already written the email. I haven't known whether I was up or down for a couple of months! We're trying to remodel our house inside and then all this with my mother. She's always liked to keep a lot of stuff stirred up and be right in the middle of all of it. She likes nothing better when at least two of us siblings are not getting along. She'll get mad at one of us, then try to get the other siblings mad also. I usually stay out of it, but my two brothers and sister don't always. She's also a very jealous, manipulating, and controlling person and I believe that a lot of it stemmed from her jealousy of my getting a "new" (to me) house that is nicer than hers. I also stopped some of her manipulations and that got her fired up. Add to that that I have a sister who is a compulsive liar and also loves to cause trouble and you have my dysfunctional family! Whew, it's been a roller-coaster ride, but she left yesterday. I felt so much better this morning when I woke up. Thanks for the note. I'm a good listener if you want to confide the interesting things going on there.

Ok, Jeff! You win!!! No contest!! ;-) Hope that things are improving over your way! Best, SueB
Hi Jinnye, Wasn't me that was lonely but thx for the response. I was just replying to Faye's earlier message. Anyway, sounds like you've had an interesting time with your mother. Sorry to hear about the problems. We've had some interesting things going on here too. Must be something in the stars, I guess. Best, SueB

Don't know if this is your problem, but I get kicked off some Rootsweb lists every time my mailbox overflows. Only reason I'm still on this one is it doesn't get much mail.

family history month! Hey! the idea started with our flockmeister; you got a right to crow!
I'm still out here, too, just sort of lurking. Hit the jackpot, in a sense, on my black sheep. When he was convicted of murder in 1893, for whatever reason the court records disappeared (he & 3 others were tried together). Everyone says they're someplace else. I did find record of another guy who was tried after these 4...his attorney filed an appeal after the conviction, and so I have a copy of everything that was in the State Supreme Court file in Michigan. Hip, hip hooray! However, it's not MY ancestor's court case, and while he is mentioned throughout the documents (as is his son-in-law, whom I did not previously know to be involved in this murder), it's not the same. Whine, whine, sniff. Now I need to figure out my next step... Anyway, has anyone else noticed that ALL the rootsweb lists seem to be slow these days? Maybe we're fluctuating with the stock market......... I have made one of my pet projects this week to let people know about the Missing Links and Somebody's Links newsletters. They're great newsletters that are swap-meets of a sort. Mary Jo has a photo of the Smith High class of 1920, and will share it with descendants of the graduates. Bobby has a copy of a death certificate for John Smith, but not "his" John Smith, and so he'll send it to a descendant. That sort of thing... The reason I mention it is that the editor says she may call it quits because of dwindling membership. I'd hate to see the lists go, because I think there are lots of success stories waiting to happen. Anyway, if you want to subscribe, here is some info.... To SUBSCRIBE (or UNSUBSCRIBE) from MISSING LINKS and SOMEBODY'S LINKS, search the database, read online or download back issues, and enjoy the illustrated versions of some articles previously published in MISSING LINKS, go to http://www.petuniapress.com/ and click the appropriate link.

I did the same thing Aletha and I ran the virus scan again last night. I was clean also. Just a good idea to delete all mail that you don't know where it came from. Bettye
I just received this from another list I'm on. I have followed the instructions on the website and I'm declared clean, no sign of bugbear. This took me about 5 minutes, after downloading the two recommended files, on a 80 mg hard drive. I downloaded to a floppy, plenty of room on a 1.44 mg floppy. I also printed out the webpage of instructions and the instructions for the chktrust file, this verifies you have a true download of the bugbear removal file.
