Notes - preliminaries for the day / pick three

         Breakfast and the paper are completed this cloud dark and showery mid-morning. Carol is reading the paper while Spooky is downstairs keeping her company and looking out the front window for critters while Jadah is upstairs with you dozing away under the bed. You in the meantime are thinking that yesterday’s ‘revelations’ for the books are probably not so new, though they are to you. Here comes Jadah for some comfort. – Amorella

         1123 hours. I took the chrome pipes off the Honda. They are too long and look awkward, so after the doctor’s office off they go to the auto supply store. Too bad, I would have liked them – it looks fine on the one Toyota pipe. The factory puts them on the dual pipes but not the single. Carol is watching the cable weather and I have nothing in my head anyway.

         Why don’t you check your email orndorff rather than veg away. – Amorella

         1132 hours. That’s pretty good Amorella. I don’t think you’ve ever used ‘veg’ before.

         Like your daughter Kim says, “Whatever works.” – Amorella

         1212 hours. I just re-read yesterday’s post. I don’t remember the words but I remember the fingers tapping the keys. It is time for me to finish readying for the doctor.

         Post. - Amorella


         You had a very late lunch at Smashburgers today and the manager LJ stopped by while you were eating and asked if you left a wad of money by the register, which you did. You thanked him graciously and told him as you left that you will right him up for the company for which he was also gracious. Otherwise, after lunch you ran a couple of errands one of which was taking back the exhaust tips to Auto Zone. The clerk returned your money and on your request checked to see if there were any chrome tips out there and found that there are none. Now you are over at Pine Hill Lakes Park beside the earth dam while Carol is taking her walk. The sun came out in the last hour and though the wind is brisk it is now coming out of the west rather than the north. The weekend is supposed to be very pleasant weather-wise. – Amorella

         1655 hours. We still like the Honda and I asked Carol at lunch if she would go in with half to have the windows tinted like the Toyota but she is leery that something might go wrong with the car not because of mileage but rather age. I think we are going to keep the Honda for a long time, but we’ll see. I did tell her that if we ever got a new one I would go for the Camry hybrid rather than the Prius because I think it would be more comfortable. I am tired of thinking about cars, but they still come up from time to time. I don’t have anything else in my head (again).

         Late evening. You had carrots as well as peanut butter and raisins on a piece of wheat bread; Carol had cheese and crackers. You watched the news and “Elementary” and Masterpiece Theatre. Carol has gone to sleep but left the light on. Jadah is curled and asleep on your side of the bed; Spooky is downstairs on the chair by the front window. You are ready to call it a night but first I have something to say.

         The last thing you looked at was on possible title pages for the ebook. Chose the cheapest cover title page where you can add a photo. You will use the letters GMG.I as the title. I have selected three of your photos, one for each book. Let’s have a look. – Amorella

         2238 hours. This is not what I thought. I thought we were going to use a cover similar to the first trilogy.

         You don’t want to confuse the reader. These are not the same books. Each cover will have a different color for the text so that it will be less confusing. - Amorella

         Do you have colors picked?

         I do. I will show you what it will be. You, as always, final editing rights because your name is on the cover on the lower right corner: richard henry orndorff in common letters.

         2248 hours. I look forward to seeing your concepts. This is quite a surprise.

         I observed you reviewing samples and I have made my decisions based on what I observed in your heartansoulanmind as you perused those samples. - Amorella

         I am quite intrigued, Amorella.

         First, go to iPhoto. – Amorella

         2331 hours. I found ten that appear possibilities.

         I concur. Tomorrow I will pick the three. Post. – Amorella
