I am working on my book and came across this photo that I actually like! I took it to show a new neck scarf that I bought in a boutique. I wore it for the picture that Rob took and it is now hanging on my bedpost. I never wore it again; it just wasn’t me.

I have never worn dresses unless absolutely necessary. I am simple in everything that I do. Eating on the same old china for 40 years, the same old silverware, etc.

You might say I am a creature of habit.

I did get someone to come out and weed and put pine straw out in the front yard. Next on the list is getting the deck painted.

I can’t do any serious work on the book until Rob goes away for a few days and I can work on it in absolute silence. Even then it is a very frustrating job. I am faced with hundreds of essays and oneliners to pick from.

The book will have no audience except for the few that buy it. I have learned my lesson about what it takes to publicize a book only to see it disappear on amazon.

I write for the few and that is a fact.

I feel I am putting this book together only because a psychic said I would.
