My book guy fixed everything, I did a test on Kindle Direct and it worked perfectly. I sent it to the author with the directive NOT to upload it until we're on the phone together. He ignored that directive last time - hopefully he won't this time because there are a few things you need to do before uploading a PDF. I also had to adjust a few things because this insane author added yet another thank you - there are literally almost 100 PAGES of thank you to everyone he's ever met. I recommended he delete every one of them, but I think it's the reason he wrote the book. I also think he read Benjamin Kritzer because the the chapter titles are so like that book and I haven't really seen that in other books. In fact, I think it's his version of that book, his story, using the layout of the Kritzer books. It's just too close.

That's great that your book guy was able to fix this other guy's book, but really...100 PAGES of thank yous?? :o

It is also weird that it's so similar to Benjamin Krizer. :-\

The dinner from Ann and Jen arrived around 4:30. It was huge with lots of turkey breast, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, and veggies. Annabelle and Stella went berserk for a taste. I have enough left over for tomorrow's dinner.

Nice! :D

DR George I think the hummingbird windchime is a nicer gift than the giftcard.

Maybe...but my mom really liked that buffet restaurant. ;D

Once it reopens it should be very clean.  You can dine together ;)

If it reopens. :-\

It has reopened!  There was an article in today's paper (behind a paywall, so I can't link it) with the headline:

Main Chinese Buffet in Lacey is allowed to reopen after it passes Wednesday inspection.

Main Chinese Buffet in Lacey is back in business after the restaurant passed a lengthy inspection on Wednesday, a county health official said. The business was allowed to reopen Wednesday afternoon, but chose to reopen Thursday, said Art Starry, environmental health division director for Thurston County Public Health and Social Services.

Starry said two county health inspectors spent more than two hours at the restaurant at 5580 Martin Way E., and came away satisfied that the business was ready to reopen.

“We’re disappointed by the closure, but they responded really well,” said Starry, adding that the appropriate safety and control measures were in place. He also said staff showed good communication with other staff and managers, and that managers were interacting with them appropriately.

“Again, we’re quite pleased,” Starry said. Although the business was allowed to reopen Wednesday, the restaurant wanted to do some additional training for a Thursday opening, he said.

Those are some main points of the article.  My mom will be very happy.

We didn't tell her that I was planning on getting a gift card for there, but she really loved the hummingbird windchime that I got her (instead).

He doesn't play very often, but it's also rare when he wins.

Tomorrow, I'm going to pick up my mom and drive her to my sister's because it's supposed to rain and my mom doesn't see the lines between the lanes very well, so I'll do the driving.
