Okay, let me tell you why….


 
Early interesting Cars:


1925 Rolls Royce Phantom 
For today: 
  
I really thought I had put a blog entry on yesterday morning. So not realizing I had not blogged I was merrily typing along about seniors and being relevant. AND I WAS NOT RELEVANT.
But like most folk I have an excuse.
1. I’m old.  That should do it right there. 
2. The time zone here is no Saturdays this year.
3. I was kidnapped and held for ransom, Sherry did not pay the $5 until it was too late to Blog.

Really I do have a reason, I know you are just dying to hear some BS story. But, remember that book I have been working on for a year. Ace ‘n Me? I finished it at 3:30 that morning. And submitted it to the publisher. They ran an auto-check on the book block and told me that the text was easing past the margins on many cases. Please correct and resubmit.

You would think it was a 600 page novel, when actually it has taken over a year to write 100 pages, large print.

I got in bed near 4AM slept a few hours had breakfast and spent the day getting all the ducks in a row. It is off now being prepared as a proof, I am anxious to see it.

This is exciting news, and YOU will NEVER be irrelevant, but lack of sleep will tire anyone out. Give yourself a break!!!

I think with lack of sleep anything is possible. Congrats on your new book.

Sleeping is a wonderful sport.

Congrats on the new book. Sorry you're going to have to do some editing. That sounds like a lot of work. LaXK of sleep makes a big difference and can even make one sick. So get your rest and then everything will work better.
