Last month I asked for help with my research. I love searching for my ancestors. I could spend hours gathering bits and pieces of their stories. It's just too easy to get sidetracked when no one but me knows where I've been focusing my energy.
Enter Jenny from "Are My Roots Showing?". She answered my call for help with a resounding, "me too!". This morning our virtual meeting gave me a hefty boost of camaraderie, empathy, humor, and genealogical accountability. We set goals for ourselves and recorded each other's plans for the upcoming week. In seven days we'll meet again to report our progress (or lack thereof).
Something tells me we'll both reap the rewards of our collaboration. Go team!

I'm already reaping the rewards! As a matter of fact, I've already come up with a couple of new goals for our next meeting. I can't wait to hear about your progress too! GO TEAM!!
I hope this arrangement works for you and Jenny as it has for Cheryl Palmer (Heritage Happens) and myself (The Educated Genealogist) my question is - Who gets to be the Whip Cracker? LOL
Have fun! You will be amazed at what you are going to get accomplished when you are accountable to someone.
