Genealogy Chat

There are other men who read this too. When I can't make my mind up to add another ancestral line because I'm not 100% certain, I come on the tips board, and am soon distracted until it's too late to do the work. Sometimes other people's problems seem more interesting than mine, or even easier to make inroads into! Stan

We cant do the family tree and wash and iron. Thats what we have men for. I wish.

Not wishing to be sexist but this board seems to be mostly female, I thought you were all too busy washing and ironing!

David The poems are wonderful, they say it all. Another site for our favourites. Christine

Sue The poems are definitely talking about me. Who on seeing Christine's original message would be obsessed enough to put "Genealogists Anonymous" into Google? You guessed it! David

Christine You're certainly not alone! My family are convinced I'm quite mad - I'll covert them all one day! OOPS think that should be convert - or maybe not LOL David The poems on that web page are so true - they could be talking about me! (us?) Sue

Hi, Log on to internet, check e-mail, check tips board, check Guest Board, Tips Board, then again to see new replies, then again, then realise 2 hours have passed. Re log on and the cycle starts again. No wonder my house is neglected. Janet

April From one obsessed genealogist to another! Try this one: http://members(.)aol(.)com/JMaike/poem(.)html removing the brackets as always. David

Im addicted to the tips boards too... doesnt matter what im doing if the internet is on the tips board is in a window somewhere! (need all the help i can get! lol...)

Perhaps, there ought to be a Kilroy episode entitled, 'Can genealogy take over your life?'. lol

I am always on the tips board - copy and paste - copy and paste. Glad I am not alone!! Kathy

You can try!!! Maggie We all try it on sometimes

Can I tell my family that I am normal then......I read down to the bottom of the list, then start back at the top again! There's no hope is there...... Maggy, West Yorkshire

I am starting to feel quite ""normal!!!!"" in a gc obsessive way

We're done for then A

Join the club Ann.... I have been told that there is no cure of a GC obsession :o))

Once a day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Once an hour would be restrained for me ..

No, you are not alone. I keep looking as maybe I can help someone. Maybe I have, but not everyone comes back to say whether what I have found is useful or not. Their computer has probably overheated and thrown a wobbly.
