We have a crazy 2nd cousin that takes care of our family tree...I DO want to get a copy from him (it's all digital) but he's one of those "latches on and never goes away" people and I'm not sure I have the strength for that.
I'm very much mixed, too...primarily English, French and Irish, with some Dutch and Native American (my birth father says we can be traced back to Pocahontas, but I'm not sure I buy that).
Once you get started it's kind of easy because you can link to other people who have the same ancestors as you and they've done the work for you.
The random freed slave my grandma's brother found was the big surprise. I'm like, wow...related to slave owners on one side and slaves on the other...that's great.
WOW!!!
WOW! I don't think our cousin has been that thorough. I think he only got back as far as my great-grandmother.
I cannot comprehend how this child doesn’t have a student advocate. What the heck? Screams racial discrimination.
Poor thing! And this isn't the daughter who completely renovated the house? Did they get a new appliance or paint or something? When I was growing up, we had a little dog and one day he was barking his fool head off. We went back to find out what was going on and the inflatable Shamu that my brother had hanging from his ceiling had fallen and was on the floor. Completely freaked the dog out.
My college boyfriend stopped talking to me for three days when I got my hair cut shorter than he had expected. One of the (many) reasons I broke up with him.
We can't do that with A. He will freak out if he doesn't have enough notice. I was really surprised on Wednesday. Tuesday afternoon I got a text from the Tennis club that the instructor's kids were sick and lessons were canceled until further notice. Wednesday was supposed to be his last "test lesson" to see if he wants to learn tennis. (spoiler, he does!) He was really upset that it was canceled as he had really been looking forward to it. Wednesday, a couple of hours before the lesson was supposed to be, a different instructor asked if any of the boys wanted to practice with him instead. I figured A wouldn't want to anymore because it was only an hour and a half before he had to go and that's just too short of notice for him, but he said yes and was really happy to get to go anyway. Which is a really positive sign about how much he is loving tennis. Anything else and he probably would have said no.So the key word here is secrecy. A very wise and necessary parenting procedure.
Is there a possibility that the hospital will wave it? Did he not have insurance? When my mom passed, she had over $10,000 that wasn't covered by insurance. The insurance company wanted her to travel to California for bone scans because it was cheaper there.
Yeah....THAT'S realistic. So they denied a lot of her claims for medical treatments that she really did need because it was too expensive in Wyoming. They would have paid for it if she had gone to California, but not when she got treated where she lived. The hospital waved all of those fees so we didn't have to pay them. I mean, what do they do if there's no kin to pay it off?

My mother used to rock me and sing me this song when I was little! (I actually remember it vividly)
