The rules for this award are as follows:
- Thank the person who nominated you and link to their blog
- Share seven things about yourself
- Nominate 15 you admire (or as many as you can think of)
- Contact your bloggers and let them know you've tagged them for the One Lovely Blog award.
So here goes. Seven things about myself:
- While I have dabbled in genealogical research for many years, I took over from my Dad in 2012 and have become totally obsessed.
- My blog began as away to tell Mom and Dad about my research discoveries.
- I have been a history buff for as long as I can remember and have learned that genealogy is the perfect blend of the history I've always loved with a way to honor my parents and grandparents.
- I can remember trivial factoids about almost anything, but am completely oblivious to almost all popular culture icons.
- I love renovating and remodeling homes and am currently living in a home that's been under renovation for about three years.
- My husband and I have started serious discussions about retiring...the problem is where.
- Writing my blog posts is much easier with a glass of wine! ;)
As for the 15 bloggers I admire, well, there are so many -- most of whom have already received this award. I've received a lot of support from my fellow members of the Genealogy Bloggers Facebook group, especially when I was struggling to continue writing my blog. But I'm going to bend the rules a bit and tag everyone who contributes to the Worldwide Genealogy -- A Genealogical Collaboration project. What I like most about reading this blog is the participants are from all over the world and they've introduced me to many tools I now use in my research or to stay organized.
9/29 Update: I was also nominated by Bernita Allen, author of the blog, Voices Inside My Head. Thank you, Bernita!
10/4 Update: I was nominated again by ScotSue, author of the blog Family History Fun. Thank you, Sue!
