Wherever you are in your genealogy journey--a hobbyist, a professional, or somewhere in between--what is your area of expertise? Your superpower? Your passion? In other words, what could you confidently teach a beginner? Think skills, records sets, specialties, knowledge. My response in comments.

The irony of Lunar Year 2025 being the Year of the Snake is not lost on me. Anyone else?

Check your social media accounts. I found out I was being followed on the book of faces by the FOTUS & had follow requests on my locked-down instapot account by the hillbilly and the alabaster house. These are not transitioned by the former folks' accounts, which I still follow & which are archived.

Nothing like discovering you've been doing a part of the Government's action plan for Mother and Baby Home survivors and have been doing more than what they would've set out to do... 🙃 Even then, they still won't release the children's names [which they have]. 😖 #ProjectInfant #MotherAndBabyHomes

Government will commission further research on the death registration records of the children who were born in Mother and Baby Homes in the 1920s and 1930s and who subsequently lived in the community or in institutions with a view to establishing their age at death and causes of death.

Latest read. The Forbidden Garden by Simon Parking. A true story of the botanists at the world’s first seed bank who faced an impossible choice during the Siege of Leningrad: eat the collection to prevent starvation or protect their life’s work to help end world hunger? #booksky #readingnow

The cover of a book shows a Russian government building with several people tending a garden in front. The title reads "The Forbidden Garden: The Botanists of Besieged Leningrad and Their Impossible Choice" by Simon Parkin, author of "The Island of Extraordinary Captives".

Today is the first Sunday of #Advent. In the liturgical tradition, one candle is lit to represent Hope. "A thrill of HOPE, the weary world rejoices..." "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him." Romans 15:13 Now, more than ever, we need #hope.

Four red candles stand in a bed of pine branches with red and brown wax stars. The candle on the far right is lit.

I tried something new today, #acupuncture for plantar fasciitis in one foot! I think it's going to work for me, but will likely take a few sessions before I see results, according to my provider. Anyone else here tried it? What were your results? #whatmakesmehappy

Took a much-needed social media break over the weekend after an intense work week and needing to prep for the upcoming holiday. It sure was nice to come back to a number of new followers! If I haven't followed you back, it's because you don't have enough identifying info in your profile. #genealogy
