February Genealogy Goals

February is shaping up to be a busy month already so genealogy time and goals are going to be limited. I have to do our taxes, always a dreaded chore since both my husband and I are self-employed. My new laptop should be arriving in a couple weeks so I need to devote some time to setting it up and loading everything on it.

Also on the schedule is a parent-teacher conference, a visit from my mom, a visit from my sister and niece, and a girl's night out (we're going to see the Chippendales!). Last but not least, I will be participating in the 29 Day Organizational Challenge at OrgJunkie. An organized house means less time dealing with household chores and more time for genealogy.
