And me too with the organizational skills, behind the door without a doubt! But, like you, I am determined to get things in order to help my research and those who come along as well.Anna Matthewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06900231457574329121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1022882827649802537.post-45577963855225258102015-01-12T13:45:43.544-08:002015-01-12T13:45:43.544-08:00Thanks Jenny!

I didn't get into this mess in 13 weeks, and it will definitely take time to get out of it, as well. Might as well have some fun as I go, eh?? Thanks for commenting - I really appreciate that I'm not alone with my flying fingers and distraction tendencies! <br />Celia Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04096301290962083820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1022882827649802537.post-31492320002562674482015-01-12T13:25:21.028-08:002015-01-12T13:25:21.028-08:00Celia, I've made "slow and steady" m...Celia, I've made "slow and steady" my mantra for this do-over. I literally have to keep repeating it to myself. I've even written it on a small whiteboard I keep near my desk - in bold red - so I won't forget.<br /><br />I don't have any pipe dreams that I'll have the perfect family tree at the end of 13 weeks. Heck, I'm not even sure I'll be done after 13 months. But at any given point, I want to be able to say "I have the best (read: most accurate/well-sourced/well-researched/etc) tree I've ever created." And that's enough for me.<br /><br />Good luck to you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08626456511113834140noreply@blogger.com
