Had an Aline Day

Hello everyone. As you must know by now,it has been  a while since I blogged. So this morning I am up bright and early. It is now eight o'clock in the morning. I have been busy lately .My Mom is still in the hospital ,she has been there since November. She had taken a stroke and my family and I thought she would never walk again, nor eat, not even talk. She is 92 years old but let me tell you, this lady has something that I sure hope I have at her age. She has determination and that is a must have, if a person wants something bad enough. She was put on a feeding tube, now she is on partial pureed and soft foods, she could not walk, she now walks a bit with her walker , she could not talk ,she used to have to write on a notepad, she now talks. My family and I are so proud of her. I also have a special friend at a different hospital who has been there since February, so I have been travelling to both hospitals nearly evey day.
Once in a while ,a person needs a day of their own and yesterday was Aline's Day. I woke up early yesterday morning, and decided I needed an Aline Day. What did I do? Well as most of you must know, I have a love for genealogy.Genealogy is tracing our family's ancestors. It has been a love of mine since 1976 and I never tire of it. That is where I went to spend my Aline Day, to the genealogy center. I arrived there quite early, and settled down behind a micro film machine and I felt so at ease. No worries, no thinking about anything or anyone else for a short while. I am presently helping someone find their ancestors and I am succeeding very well . I then decided to do some transcribing of records to add on my acadian-roots.com  website. While I was transcribing ,I spoke to someone who used to work there long ago and who happened to stop by . I feel so at home there, if you think about it, I started my genealogy in 1976 that means I have been going there for the last 35 years. And would you believe I still find information there that I never knew existed? So my Aline Day went very well but there was one thing wrong, the day flew by so fast ,soon it was time to leave the genealogy center and return home.
Last night I came online and created a few more items , I created two new t-shirts . I have recently added a few angel things too, postcards,coasters,stickers. If you have time please check out my place at http://www.zazzle.com/allicor*    Thanks for the lovely visit, do stop by again.
Chow for now
