What a difference three weeks make! I have returned from my Unlock the Past genealogy cruise with my right arm in a back slab from fingers to shoulder. My fractured elbow will be operated on on Monday with a few nights in hospital to follow. Using my left hand has been a real learning experience and there will be a delay on cruise and travel blogs as everything is taking longer.
My priority has been getting new events up on the National Family History Month website and so far I have added over 100 events with my left hand. More will be added as they are submitted with time out while I am in hospital. It looks like being a great month.
The NFHM launch was yesterday in Adelaide and sadly I missed it. There will be reports and photos so stay tuned.
Now finalising my 12 talks in August and luckily I did a lot of preparation before leaving on holidays. I have only had to reschedule one talk which clashes with a post surgery follow up. I'm happy to say that I look better now than just after my accident. My poor face took a bit of a battering on the cobble stones but fortunately nothing serious. Helen Smith's photo shows my determination that the show must go on, but I think in hindsight I was in a bit of denial!
Details of where I am speaking during NFHM are on the Events page of my website. My cruise presentations are on the Resources page, scroll down to Presentations.
My 31 Activities for Individuals and 31 Activities for Societies to do in NFHM are on the Resources page of my website. If you are stuck for ideas on how to make the most of NFHM 2015 in August check out my suggestions.

Time for a little rest - everyone have a great time in NFHM and I will be bringing more news post my surgery.

ReplyDeleteHope you are soon well again Shauna, and recover quickly from the surgery. What a fall it must have been.
ReplyDeleteI was sorry to hear you'd had a fall, you don't do things by halves... Take care.
ReplyDeleteLovely Shauna - what a trooper you are! Best wishes to you in your convalescence and thank you again for all your hard work on NFHM and making it such fun :)

ReplyDeleteYou are amazing, Shauna. Hope today's surgery goes smoothly. Was stunned to read of your unlucky fall so far from home. What bad timing for you
