That is fantastic Tim!!! Before I go on ... can I
ask you how you "mass produce" your merchandise to be able to have
it in stock? And what about a patent on the jewelry? We
would have started a home business long ago on "certain new ideas"
but we have found that patents are so expensive that it is something
we could not afford.
It is great that you can share your main interest with the
person you share your life with. Actually, I have been meaning
to write a post asking other people what their summer hobbies have
been.
Both my husband and I are very much into photography and
possibly investing in one of those large printers that print out
very large prints for us to be able to sell.
In the meantime, or this summer, we have been very active
in
genealogy. My husband began his genealogy
30 years ago and was able to go back 14 generations on one
side! That is pretty impressive but at the beginning of May he
stumbled upon a breakthrough whereby he has gone back to 1025 AD and
has several names from a short time B.C.
When you go back that far [B.C.] there were so many ways and
means of keeping track of days and times ---- so as far as
those go we only have the names. Depends on whether the
peoples were using the Gregorian calendar or the Julian calendar or
their own calendar! LOL
Anyway, we have over 10,000 names in our database now.
And my husband is a perfectionist and likes to have at least two
sources to make sure that the data is
correct. He has been helping me now with my
family but for several reasons we have come to some
standstills. I will not go into detail with it now because
unless someone is very much into genealogy .. it is not important to
bring up right now.
My husband was thrilled with his breakthrough because he found
out that he is related to Charlemagne and many Kings of
England. And there are several lords and Saints as well!
Prior to the breakthrough it was pretty exciting to know that
he is related to both President Madison and President Taylor.
But now, the list of Europe royalty that he is related to his
phenomenal!
We will eventually make it into a book available for all of the
family as well as the general public. And possibly get it
published.
Most of you are probably enjoying the great outdoors that you
wait all year long for [as I did the 21 years I lived in New York
State]. But we decided to take THIS HOT Arizona summer and
work on a couple of indoor afternoon projects together.
