\"trees<\/a>Since this is a leap year, I have an extra day of Frebruary to finish up projects and look at what I have managed to accomplish.\u00a0 The first Friday of the month we had a sneaky wintry-mix storm that ended with a beautiful sunset, and cancelled a lot of activities including the day-long workshop I was supposed to be at.\u00a0 So there was a bonus day at the beginning of the month too.\u00a0 Given all this extra time, I have managed to finish my goal of renaming and reorganizing my family line Evernote notebooks.\u00a0 I have made a checklist on my Trello research board for 25 minute challenges and this was perfect for it.\u00a0 In that spirit, in March I will \u2013 25 minutes at a time \u2013 begin renaming all the family files in my computer in the same way.\u00a0 Some of this has already been done, but I don\u2019t think any of the surname folders are completely renamed.\u00a0 So which name to begin with?<\/p>\n
