Cats are spending more time downstairs

With the increase in spring front yard activity the cats are spending more time downstairs in the foyer window. The floor level view is restricted so we are going to get another no frills cat tower which needs to be at least 120cm high.

Family Ancestry we are done for now

Been at it for a while and we now have a tree with lots of branches. Contacted DNA linked relatives (living lol) like cousins that I never knew existed, flurry of activity and info exchange. Things are pretty quiet now as people go back to their daily lives – including me.
Anyway… at this point no point paying a monthly subscription so we have cancelled. The good thing with Ancestry.com is that messaging is still active with the free (no subscription) account so I’ll just sit on it and see what happens. If people contact me there may be enough activity to justify a monthly subscription – to update stuff.
