Waz up for the weekend? The only thing so far I have happening is seeing a college friend's daughter singer in some cafe in Pier Village.

Happy Friday. Cheers!

I am counting the hours, then 10 glorious days off!

No plans for the weekend, except trying to dig out from under the pile of paperwork on my desk. Good thing we have free days on the weekends to do our work. My guilty pleasure these days is stealing some time, here and there, to plan my October trip to Nova Scotia. The focus for my sister and I was the farm and homestead of our maternal grandfather's family (the family still owns and operates the farm). But last night we discovered that in the next town, there is an historical site - a 1600s settlement - owned my an ancestor on our maternal grandmother's side. Two families in in trip - not bad! And, yes, SOMMS is also descended from the settlement family. I'll send him pictures. We're hoping for an inheritance.

One of these days I'm going to start with that whole ancestry thing. My sister wants me to do that thing where you send your saliva to some company, they analyze it and track where your ancestors originated and how they traveled through the millennia. She and my niece have done it; no big surprises from their DNA: Central, Southern and Northern European roots. Now they want to have my DNA analyzed. Unfortunately, New York State doesn't allow it. Darn.

Moony, the trip sounds so wonderful. I want to hear all about it.

I wonder if it's allowed in CT or PA? I'll look into it the next time I'm there.

I'm guessing it's just that they don't deal in absolutes.
But, that made me laugh out loud.

SOMMS - as you know, I tested as 76% British Isles, even though 75% of my ancestors are French. I emailed for a bit with a genetic genealogist and she said that wasn't all that unusual. Your DNA pool is like a big gumball machine. Turn that handle and you'll get a smattering of different colored balls, but every once in a while someone will get 75% (or more or less) of the same color. So, in my case, my collection of genes is very heavily weighted by my mom's father's Scottish/English bloodline and I really inherited very little from her mom and practically nothing from dear old dad. Whereas my sister is almost the opposite - overwhelmingly French genes (have you looked at that face?!?) and just a trace of British. Mom swears we had the same parents (yes, we asked).
