Still here

Hello my friends, I havent posted anything in a month but I'm still here.  I've been doing light weight workouts in addition to some DDP Yoga.  People have commented that I'm looking leaner.  I just gotta watch the sweet tooth, it's a problem of mine.

As you may recall from my previous post, I applied for a Historic Resources Specialist position with the Mississippi Department of Archives and History.  I had a phone interview two weeks ago and will be notified either way concerning a face to face interview.  Let's hope for the best.  Meanwhile, I have finally began research into my father's political career.  I have begun reviewing the Oral History he did with the University of Southern Mississippi to start a basis for how I will organize his photographs.  Here is a link to the oral history if you are interested http://digilib.usm.edu/cdm/ref/collection/coh/id/8753
Meanwhile, I've upped my part time hours at the Downtown Y.

I was supposed to go with my Mom to a cemetery in Fayette, MS on Labor Day to visit my Great-Great Grandfather's grave but didnt end up going.  I've been doing additional genealogical research on my family.  My Great Great Grandfather David Stanton Burch was a Captian in the Confederacy during the Civil War.  After doing research I found out he was part of the 7th Regt. Mississippi Infirmary.

Kudos to all those that completed the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.  Such a worthy cause.  Until we meet again friends!!!
