Just jump in if joining, no "catch up" ... just today is today ...
I will include chapter headings, as we discovered some differences between the US and UK editions regarding chapter order.
Chapter 79 - Find Occasions To Get Together With Family - Well, we may have to ZOOM or FaceTime these days!However, this is also a great time to online "share a meal" or tea with some "long lost" relatives and catch up. Everyone brings their own food or beverage, by the way, but set up the camera as if sharing the same table ... and set aside an hour at least ... and really talk to them, catch up, find out how they are doing. Share some memories. Do it with some folks you have not spoken with in a long, long time.
Chapter 80 - Appreciate All The People ... Before You - As a part of the above conversations, try to share information on what each person recalls about family "roots" ... great-grand parents' names, countries of origin, unusual stories about the family "in the old days." Take notes. At the end of the conversation, give the ancestors a little bow.
