Late afternoon. You had more house chores
today, one in particular you have been putting off for a year – coating the
two-year old concrete front walk with protection-from-the-weather chemicals.
Carol did more raking. Busy day, then you had a late lunch at Panera and a
drive to Lebanon for early voting since you will be in Florida in November. You
have been thinking about the “selling” atmosphere in the United States. –

1705 hours. I am rather bothered by the fact that people
are constantly hustling their products because I have a product that I would just
as soon give away but people have expectations. Anyway, it has given me a more
personal insight into what people have to do to sell a product. It has to be a
constant rat race. I’m thinking any product here not just books. What a way to
live. I would have burnt out years ago. One of my old favorites comes to mind, “Death
of a Salesman”. I’m just not of that temperament.
Not true, boy. You have sold people on literature
and writing your entire adult life. – Amorella
1714 hours. Education is not a product.
I disagree. – Amorella
I don’t have a reasonable response to this.

hours. I discovered an error in the genealogy. I have Lord Stonebridge with the
Scots rather than the Saxons. I think this is the error. It is too late for me
to dwell into this. I will work on it tomorrow. The mistake may go back to
Grandma 6 – I will have to check this carefully. The key was Robert asking his
Grandma about her parents. I am sure they were the Scots turned Saxons because
the Scots have the oak table. This reminds me of problems with our own personal
ancestral chart. I guess that does keep this aspect of the fiction
authentically realistic. Anyway, this is on tomorrow’s agenda.
In talking with Carol tonight after watching
“Manhattan” and “Madam Secretary” you realized that you were going to Delaware
Wednesday night not next week. You are going up this coming Sunday night
because they move on Monday. Now you realize why Carol was in such a focus to
get things done around the house. You have to be back here Thursday night
because Carol has a doctor’s appointment Friday morning. Friday night Kim, Paul
and the boys arrive and you immediately babysit while the two go to a wedding
of Kim’s Miami roommate. They go home either Saturday or Sunday, as you will be
up there Sunday night. Busy but fun and exciting family time. – Amorella
2233 hours. I never seem to know exactly what is going on
when, fortunately I am not writing for an immediate deadline.
No, you are not. If you were to die
tomorrow, you will have left the drafts of GMG.Two and Three. – Amorella
2236 hours. I don’t want to press my luck Amorella. I do have a deadline of 2016 for
GMG.Three.
