Hi All, I'm guilty, I'm guilty. I haven't posted for awhile, but have read messages. I am usually late at reading my mail for the last 8mos, so have not participated. By the time I read my mail the list has moved on to something else, but things have quieted down so maybe I can get back into the 'grove'. In the last 8 mos. my home business has grown and takes allot of my time, then I moved to a new house (bigger), my mother now lives with my husband and me, so having to unpack 2 house holds and hoping everything will fit and what don't re-pack or sell, the you have your minor move-in mishaps to deal with ( I think I will write a book:-)). I have also become a List-mom to several list, CAORANGE, BAYER, DURR surnames. So as you can see, I have been on the go. I also have been doing Cemetery look-ups here in my area as well as Birth and Death Record requests. I know this is long, but please bare with me. I have to say to Dr. Bill and to the others on this list, THANK YOU as I would not have been able to become a List-mom if it weren't for your help. I was a real newbie when I joined NEWGEN 3 years ago and I have come along way and learned soooooooo very much and I'm still learning. Dr. Bill gave me a project sometime ago for the NEWGEN list and with his help I succeeded and this gave me the courage to go forward. Now you know why he won the award for Helping. Anyway, I'm getting all teary-eyed, so will close for now (Thank Goodness) and promise to be more active in the future.
