Back in the saddle again.

I must be back in the saddle again, all I have been doing for the last 2 weeks is genelogy, I even helped give a class. It a way it has been fun and yet rather hard too. It seems strange to be doing it without Bill and yet I think he must be helping me. I was looking through the notebooks we both carried back and forth to the MRFHC each day and in Bills I found an envelope with a marriage certificate in it, it was Bills great-great-grandfather and Grandmothers. We have looked for his grandfather for years and years thinking his name was John H. Beck but when I studied the marriage certificate it listed him as William John H. Beck. So I think Bill is pushing me along to find his Grandfathers records and thus the rest of the Beck clan. Interesting and strange that after all these years I would find this and notice the different name!

When I read "back in the saddle again..." I instantly thought of the movie 'Sleepless In Seattle' where they play that song because Tom Hanks is calling up a girl for a date...
I immediately thought you must have a boyfriend. I figured it was a boy toy named Raul and you lured him into your home under the premise of cleaning your pool...that you no longer have.

Imagine my disappointment. No Raul...just geneology. I guess that's cool too.

Mom, as I told you, I love that story and it just confirms that the spirit is so strong when it comes to geneology. So many wait to have their work done so that they can enjoy the eternal blessings of salvation.

Hey Sis---I'm with Lisa, Raul the pool boy sounds good! However, I know that you are just waiting for "Jack" to come and drag you to the altar.

I think it's wonderful that you are involved again. You need that busyness in your life.

I love you BEST!!
