November is over and it’s time to fess up. How did your 30 x 30 challenge go? I’d love to know whether you were able to put in 30 minutes a day and what you accomplished. And if you weren’t able to do 30 minutes, did you do more than you might otherwise have done? Any insights from the month?
The focus of my month was blogging. In the mid-month check in, I wrote, “I hope to be able to tell you at the end of the month that I’ve posted at least twice on each of my three blogs. (This post counts!)” I did post three times on Organize Your Family History (if you count today’s post), and I posted twice on Peace of Mind Organizing (if you count today’s post) and I posted twice on Peace of Mind Spending (if you count today’s post). I’m going to cut myself some slack and say I met that stated goal. But I also wrote in that post, “My hope is to spend at least a half hour a day each weekday in the next two weeks on blogging. I’ll most likely take Thanksgiving and the day after off.” I did not devote that kind of time to blogging. So that’s a fail.
I hope at least some of you who had committed to the challenge did better than me! I’d love to hear about it. Please post a comment and let us know how it went for youQ
This month’s challenge was not great as far as 30 minutes a day. I was able to accomplish the write up on my brother who recently passed away. For his children I did a write up on growing up with their father. He was 5 years older than me. We had some fun times. Also, I was able to document my father’s 23 Naval Service and enter it into my genealogy program (Legacy). I started to obtain documentation on one of my ancestors who was in the Revolutionary War. I had started a few years ago and ran into a road block on one generation, so I had put it aside and worked on other easier ancestors. Hopefully, I will have better luck this time around.
How nice you got back to research that you’d been blocked on. I hope it goes well. And it’s so great you were able to give your nieces and nephews the gift of that write up. It sounds like a very successful month!
I’m very happy I finished Generation 7 in my software cleanup. It was a successful month!
Fantastic, Linda!
