By the way, I have had trouble posting today. It reminds me of the troubles we had when the site changed to the new server. It logged me out in mid post one time and then, on another post, it refused to let me post so soon after the previous post.

This morning, I discovered an article on our website that was about making sure you had a last will and testament. The headline was "Exit Strategies." I cried foul. Thankfully, I was heard on that one.

I find it funny, morbidly so. But that's not what we do.

An important subject but I can see why you cried foul :)

TOD:


What is your favorite book that you have written so far?

They are all my children so it's hard to favor one over the other - but in certain ways, it will always be Benjamin Kritzer, simply because it was the first.

Let me know if anyone else is having issues posting.  I had horrible e-mail issues today, because AOL, without telling anyone, decided that I couldn't send mail without doing a security thing.  I found that out only by going to the AOL site directly and trying to send from there.  Once I'd filled in the security letters and numbers all was well.

It's been both a wonderful day and an irritating day.  Things are just bugging me in certain ways, but we had a lovely work session, and the six songs we worked on are sounding great in Sandy's voice.  Then I picked up the signed limitation sheet and took that to get copied - it won't be ready until morning because I'm having them trim them, too.  Then I had a cup of soup and a sandwich, and I also picked up a peanut butter chocolate thing from K's Donuts.  I was right there because Grant only lives two minutes away, and they had a few left.

Then I picked up some packages, which included the hardcover, which looks splendid, I must say.  I then placed the order and books should be here in under twelve days.  Pretty good - we'll have them by the end of the month it looks like.  I'm now going to book the signing.

On Sunday I dropped my two Netfllx discs into the post.  Usually, they should have been checked in yesterday. They haven't shown up yet. Given the length of time it took the last ones to arrive, I wonder if Netflix and the post office are fighting?

Yes, BK, I have to say Benjamin Kritzer is at the top of my list as my favorite reads.

I have just learned that a choral LP released on the Argo label in 1966, which I have longed to own for 30 years, has just been issued for the first time on CD. Happy day!

Where are they mailed to?  When we had NetFlix it only took one day, same for my brother in LA

For those who ordered the limited edition - my instinct is to also include a personalized signature on the title page - what do you think?

Yes, indeed - and it is on a budget label, so the price is under $12!

Signing is April 20, a Sunday - we used to do Saturdays but Sundays they say are better - I think we did that last year, too.

The last load of laundry is done for the day.  I have dinner dishes to wash but I think I will read for awhile first.
