It’s been a doozy of a year…I’m surprised my head’s above water. I set out to accomplish some lofty goals in 2023, but was not as successful as I’d like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what did I accomplish?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Finish the ICAPGen accreditation process! I did it!!! I’m now an accredited genealogist \ud83c\udf86<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u274c Finish writing my book. Nope, not this year. I did get a good amount of writing done early in the year, so I’m about a quarter (maybe a third?) of the way done \ud83d\udcda<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u274c Finish at least one of Katherine Schober\u2019s courses, preferably the German for Genealogists<\/em> course. Nope, didn’t even make any progress \ud83d\ude22<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u274c Publish at least one short guide\/booklet. Nope, didn’t happen, but I do have a plan for one \ud83e\udd2a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u274c Write at least one article for publication. Nope, didn’t even send out any queries. Although, technically, I did have an article published in the January 2023 issue of Internet Genealogy<\/em> (“Watch YouTube Videos to Grow Your Genealogy Skills”), but it was written and submitted in 2022 \u2712\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Attend two institutes (maybe three). I attended four \ud83e\udd29<\/p>\n\n\n\n
