I put in a rough night last night. Don't know why. Just could not sleep so got up and made another hat from yarn. Sorry for not having my own words today but the local genealogy library sent this in their newsletter and it was too good to pass up. Hope you enjoy it too.

I love genealogy too, this is very good!
As for blogrolling it is a program to help you with links. IT is very funny pretty easy to use. For you the hardest part would be to get the code in the template, but once that is done no problem. If you can get the one click option to work it is even better.
Hi Tim:
I have only recently found your blog via TigerSue.
Its been fun looking over your blog. You have a lot of interesting things here.
I have recently come across another blogger, who is also Irish -- And lives in Ireland of all Places! He is LDS and he and his wife are raising a family there.
He has kind of a wry sense of humor, that I think you would appreciate. (Hmmm . . . It wouldn't have anything to do with "Blarney", now would it?) :) He goes by the moniker of Within Mormonism. Take a look at his blog, and see what you think.
I wish you the best. I'll be stopping by for some more good reading.
Good Morning! Geneology IS very interesting. My sister has done some of it tracing our family. I would love to do some too, but don't have time! Have a great weekend.
