One of the hardest parts of life is the "masking," or trying to appear normal to everyone else. It's mentally exhausting. As I go through my 70s, I am starting to not care what anyone else thinks. My extended family all know that I'm the one to go to for family information. I've even written a book that has been through three editions, and I'm working on a fourth edition. Other people know that I'm really into music. If they need a particular piece of audio, they just know that I will have it. I have burned CDs of special collections to give as presents. When I'm not doing genealogy for money, I do family trees of various people just for practice and give them the results for free.
