Less than she hoped, though, I fear..   :)  I'm not particularly
motivated to do quite the in-depth research that she would do, nor to
take the time to actually write things up like she did for her
researched families...  I've been content to just find out what I could
about all the branches of my family, and to try to solve some of the
family mysteries...  :)  And to try to keep it all straight, and keep
track of the family as it continues to balloon as the kids have kids,
etc...  ;)

Which is probably why she seemed to have never used it...  :)  Mommy has
some aprons made for her to wear when eating to protect her clothes...
some of them are rather fancy, too... but she's not really a messy
eater, so they've not been messed up... she wears them all the time.. :)

... The trouble is that you think you have the time.
