I always try to address them directly in my writing because it's the closest thing I have to an actual conversation with them. Well, until I "go". Then we're *really* talking.<br /><br />~CCarolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02440331516671118735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691016683378293851.post-11919435049021256802011-01-09T00:55:11.536-05:002011-01-09T00:55:11.536-05:00Funny...I was just kidding with someone about this...Funny...I was just kidding with someone about this very thing last week. Told them I couldn't go until my research was finished. Doesn't it just crack you up when someone asks you if you are almost finished with your genealogy? Sheesh, like they think there is an *end* somewhere!Lisa Wallen Logsdonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003873811444854964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691016683378293851.post-51624270550503794982011-01-08T22:51:14.125-05:002011-01-08T22:51:14.125-05:00Yes, I sometimes wonder what I will say to the an...Yes, I sometimes wonder what I will say to the ancestors I meet "on the other side" before I found them here. I guess it will be something like, "I just ran out of time."<br><br />If you find someone to write your mystery, please keep us alerted so we can all read it when it's published. It's a great idea for a book. Or another idea: to be haunted by someone who wants to help with the research. Now I would sure appreciate a ghost like that!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691016683378293851.post-80618123316710225092011-01-08T21:03:02.280-05:002011-01-08T21:03:02.280-05:00Here I sit, every day caually inputting death and ...Here I sit, every day caually inputting death and birth information.
