That's an individual decision. It's an excellent and extremley worthwhile to spend your time on -- if it is to you.<br /><br />Allan works full-time and is trying to write a book. That requires a degree of time management that -- let's just say -- does not come naturally to him. So for him, doing genealogy research into his partner's family, when she doesn't care about her family tree? There are far more important things he could be and should be doing. Like working on his damn book. :)laura khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524593142290489958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593664.post-58475919804109129962023-03-09T04:35:14.356-08:002023-03-09T04:35:14.356-08:00Hmm, as someone who spends many hours a week doing...Hmm, as someone who spends many hours a week doing genealogy, I might find that insulting! But maybe Allan really does have more important things to do than I do. :)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720293202890878993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593664.post-20274921222782797462023-03-08T21:02:05.392-08:002023-03-08T21:02:05.392-08:00Ah-ha!

I hope none -- because he has far more important things to do, and limited time in which to do them. laura khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524593142290489958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593664.post-29829255431654431362023-03-08T05:24:37.648-08:002023-03-08T05:24:37.648-08:00Oh, Harvey DOES support my genealogy work---as lon...Oh, Harvey DOES support my genealogy work---as long as I steer clear of HIS family!!

I'm very surprised, since it's an absorbing passion of yours. <br /><br />There are skeletons galore in both our family closets. I believe that's called life. :)<br /><br />Thanks for your thoughts and wishes, I appreciate it. laura khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524593142290489958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593664.post-53172568031000839672023-03-08T04:57:07.130-08:002023-03-08T04:57:07.130-08:00I am so glad Allan is interested in your family hi...I am so glad Allan is interested in your family history and that you support his interest even if it isn't of interest to you. Harvey really isn't interested and also discourages me from doing any digging for fear there's some skeleton in the family closet!<br /><br />And I know what you mean about saying goodbye to your mother. I hope that she remains well for a long time. Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720293202890878993noreply@blogger.com
