Never Finished

Last May, we started a home improvement project to replace broken and damaged concrete. Since the concrete was under our screened-in-porch, the project included tearing down our the screened-in-porch and replacing it with a room addition. The project quickly expanded to include new siding and windows. In July, I jokingly commented to our contractor that I just wanted to be done by Christmas.

Well, the tree is up, and we aren't finished yet. Unfortunately, they ran out of siding. We are on the list for new guttering, but the weather is affecting that contractor's ability to work. Thus, our remodel project is still a work in progress -- a lot like my genealogy projects.

Today, someone tweeted Crista Cowan's 2012 blog post, Family History All Done? What's Your Number? Curious, I decided to 'calculate' my number.



Now, when people question why I'm not finished, I can honestly say:

I've only discovered 39% of my ancestors back 10 generations!
