I probably won't actually muse about anything medieval - I just like the alliteration.

MS Word Forms
So, I'm very into family history right now, and I'm reorganizing all of my files. For about a year, I've been working with family group sheets that I have to print out and manually enter the data. I've looked all over the internet for free interactive forms that will let me type into the form and print it out, but I've had no luck. So, last night Jonathan suggested I just make my own. He tried to get me to use this fancy dancy Microsoft program that actually is a great program, but which didn't let me do what I wanted. After a couple of hours of trying and failing with different programs, I gave up and just decided to use Word. Little did I know, Word had exactly what I was looking for. I made my own family group sheet form complete with check boxes and - get this - drop down menus. No kidding. It's pretty awesome. If you're into that kind of thing. Which I clearly am. Sooooooo dorky. But insanely proud of myself.
