Ides of Madness

I have a strange habit of tacking whatever project I am tackling on my wall.  March brings us this:














My March is filled with brackets.  I'm mocking up a new family tree poster (with new nephews and corrected dates - turns out I didn't have an ancestor end up in the US Virgin Islands) to print.  I'm also religiously following my March Madness bracket.  As you can see, it is going a bit better than last year, but I've still got a few more games to have it all come crashing down.

I'm also in the process of scanning photos from my grandfather's photo albums for a smugmug website.  I lost my Grandpa Hatch a few months ago.  Rather than see the family photos get divided up, stuck in shoeboxes and lost for decades, I'm preserving the albums online before we make actual prints disappear in someone's attic.  I've always had a fondness for the Grandfolks, so this seems like a good way to honor them.  I'd hope they would approve.

Last note, I've lost about 5 pounds, but I haven't been trying as hard as I should have been.
