My 2026 Goals: Travel for Family History Research Tour, Update Family Tree and Be a Wise Spender

Happy 2026 Hivers, hope all is well with you and your family too

I love to travel as long as I have sufficient funds to do it. I am grateful for my relatives who welcomed me to their homes during the holiday season: Christmas day, New Year's day and 3 Kings, they are very supportive and treated me as family member, welcomed with open arms and I am very blessed for all the love and care.

One of the perks in doing Family History Research is the thought of getting to know your relatives which translated to going to places that are not familiar to you but sparks interest as you feel safe to go there even on a tight budget because they got you covered even if you only get connected with them through social media.

I will continue doing Family History Research Tour which started in 2024, my online course influenced me to be engaged in a good cause and the wise use of social media helped me to establish connection with my relatives also in updating our family tree.

My nephew just celebrated his 9th birthday today, I was requested by my Aunt to lead the prayer for the child as well as to bless the dinner that was prepared by my cousin the boy's mom with her hubby, the kids dad cooked the delicious meal.

He is a smart kid as he excels at school.

Being a wise spender should be the skill that I need to master this year as I got scammed in the past years so I was not able to push through some of my goals for myself also for my family as I failed to become a wise spender that I took risks that left me almost nothing that might lead to depression but I never let it affect me as I know for myself that those losses will still be earned if I work smart.
