And I continue collecting matches

Still yesterday more matches and I am over 200 new matches now and the quest continues. I have started the fourth of five siblings in my extraction. There are probably 30 to look at in this set. Within the sets I am collecting about 75% of them - some have not opened their results to share and unless there is a comparative match on some chromosomes between the five siblings that I know exists then I also ignore that one but leave it highlighted so that I know I did ignore it! A busy day for sure and we finished it up with an interesting dinner of eggs and a salad. I enjoy that sort of dinner maybe once a week or so; it is a quiet reflection on the day as there is little preparation and a quiet feast. 

So today a continuation of extracting matches. But today is also income tax day as I review that material and will submit my taxes by the end of the month. I have it set up so that I always pay taxes at the end of the year. Not a huge amount but I prefer to be paying taxes as I close up the tax year. That was how I ran my little business of proofreading and copyediting when I stayed home with the girls when they were young. It was the perfect business around which one could raise children and be with them for walks and playtime and always there when they were first at school up until their teen years. It is important for children to always have a fall-back when they are young knowing that an unwell day was a simple happening and they could just curl up in bed and sleep off the cold or whatever had come their way. I grew up that way and highly recommend it; children shouldn't be rushed about when they are ill. Their bodies are constantly growing and they need time to heal without pressure. But was I an excellent mother; I doubt it I made mistakes through the years and always admit to them especially with adult children. No one is perfect except God and Jesus and Mary - the perfect symbols of our life. Thank you God for giving us this beautiful earth and all the goodness that dwells therein. 

Another beautiful Sunday and Church is at Bishopthorpe with the Archbishop of York. I will join soon. There is a note that the online service started streaming in March 2020 and 273 services have been shared. My Church of England in Canada defines me and keeps me close to the God that I love. Although I worship differently on a daily basis from others my time with PWRDF has shown me that many worship as I do. Teatime and must go make my cup.
