Ca Va Bien
YIKES - I've been verrrry busy - working to pay mortgage payments and taxes and bills, plus an unexpected fat IRS tax bill to boot. Unfortunately I, (unlike some people) am not blessed with an ounce of access to any magic money, and so have to rely solely on blood sweat and tears to keep the boogie man away from our door.
And Hey, maybe someday I'll even own my own home again too!
Also have been figuring out how to do HTML to get my web site going. I worked extra hard last week so I could take off this week and finally figure the beast out - in order to get things literally ON THE INTERNET! Well it worked out. And altho it aint perfection, I know that now that its actually on the net, and I know HOW it was accomplished. Now its just a matter of going back and editing it until its closer to what I want - which of course will be an ever evolving process (especially me - the nazi editor).
I have one site for my music - DocGuitar.com and another site for my building/woodwork - DocsWoodWorks.com which I just set up this morning and am waiting patiently for the link so I can get into the control panel to move forward with that too.
My Mom even came to Easton to do a talk at Lafayette (at a Holocaust Studies class) promoting her book and the story which prompted it. It was really a fun talk. Arlette's entertaining style was well honed over 25 years of teaching and relating her stories initially to her students, who LOVED them. They, and their enthusiastic response throughout the years, were essentially the main catalyst for her finally sitting down after retirement and putting pen to paper. Dig this too: I just found out she has her own website!! (http://beyondtheouijaboard.com/) Is that cool or what? In her eighties too. OMG dont tell her I told you that.Love my Momma!
Things are good.
