DR Elmore, that recording project has seemed so mystifying - meaning, in communication between all the parties, or lack of same - all along.

I'm sorry to hear it's probably dead, and I hope for a more stable revival of it sometime soon.

Sorry to hear that, DR elmore3003. I hope that it is not the end of your prospects.

Ditto!!

Remember Val, our wonderful super who left us in 2018 because the landlord wouldn't pay for a 2-week vacation? I had a nice phone call wityh him this morning. He and his qwife have adopted a pup named Sparky.

He's much happier with the job he left us for, and I'm very happy for him.

Tuesday morning greetings!  All 3 of my ladies' groups are demanding my attention this week, but first I have to write a little note and mail it to my friend Barb.  She fell and dislocated her shoulder - twice - over the weekend.

Yikes!  I have the opposite problem.  I bought a refurbished Kindle Oasis and EVERY book I ever checked out from OverDrive shows up on it.

 :o  My brother doesn't use Overdrive.  Maybe that is a good thing-lol

Fortunately, they're not downloaded, but they all show up in my list of titles, even though I can't download any of them because they would need to be checked out through OverDrive again. :P

This is kind of interesting since I don't believe Overdrive offers a list of past books checked out.

Wonderful photos DR John.  I especially like the eloquence of the 2nd photo.  I just wish they were larger :)

I am sorry to read about the last Last Howard Johnson's closing.  Had I know it was in Lake George I might have wanted to go.

As far as I know the first time I went to one was with Keith.  He stopped so we could have their ice cream.  I was thrilled to see Peppermint Stick, and as Keith promised, the ice cream was good.

I remember my disappointment years later when we stopped and the ice cream counter was gone.

Mine does. It’s through the library part, where I also place holds. That tab is labeled History.

OUCH.  I hope they find out why she is falling.  Vibes for a quick recovery.

A new type of Taco Bell restaurant - the first of its kind - has just opened, a stone's throw from my door.

It is strictly drive-through. 4 lanes. The kitchen is on the 2nd floor. Orders are sent down to the cars on a special elevator. They guarantee a 2 minute delivery from the time the order is placed.

He is such a good man. He and Annabelle had something really special while he worked here.
