GAGs - GeniAus' Gems - 13 May 2016

With my morning cup of coffee under my belt and the first load of washing in the machine I can turn to my pleasant weekly task of sharing some Gems with you.

Now that April is just a memory  those who took part in the A-Z Blogging challenge are writing their reflections posts. This is what I had to say about my experience, https://curryaus.wordpress.com/2016/05/10/a-to-z-reflections/.

I have heard on the grapevine that the organisers are considering adding in 2017 a genealogy category as many of us has suggested. Now is theme to start thinking about your theme for 2017. I have hit on a theme for my personal blog jillballau, set up a planning sheet on Google Drive and have added six draft posts. Will you be joining me?


1. Thanks to Pauleen for developing this dalliance for us. I'm in. Are you?
