GlennM's Journal, 21 February 2011

I'm doing well. I am 2/3 through with the edit of Book 2. When it's done in the coming few weeks I will start aggressively seeking a literary agent before editing the western or typing up all the short stories that will be a book. I am thinking of getting rid of my cable TV, the box doesn't work and I'm sure they shut it off on purpose - I cut the service to basic a few months ago and the other night turned it on half the stations worked, half didn't - then none. I removed the armoire that broke when I was checking the cable box the other night. What a hassle - the apartment has more space in it now though. Bruce may stop by, hasn't on a day off in months. I need to get the cable box to the cable company by 5 p.m. or will go tomorrow on the bus. What a pain it is to get around since Ted and Marge moved. Large things that I can't take on the bus like a big box of dog food need to be bought if I have a ride. I don't drive, never did but could care less about gas prices everyone is obsessed with, it is just a hassle if one has never driven to get a ride when needed and the buses don't run often in a small town either. I am hoping to go out to eat someplace different today, if Bruce doesn't show up by 5 p.m. I'm off on the bus probably...

I kept the cable - Bruce and I unplugged everything and moved the TV onto a small table with drawers that the video box can go into once a hole is drilled in the back. I did lots of cleaning tonight, it seems like one has to clean so much to keep up, especially with a little furry animal dragging in dirt and shaking dander everywhere. I got a ride to the store with Bruce - did the rest of my shopping for the month. Saved $8 using coupons as much of a hassle they are to cut out, that payed for my meal out - we ate Chinese. I got Vit E tonight, it helps somewhat and since I take Saw Palmetto Berry extract and other things that may overly thin the blood maybe Vit E will help stop the blood from getting too thinned out. I am healthy, but am thinking of trying gluten-free dieting, my twin sister has been doing it six months, I mentioned it to her the other day and she said she already was doing it since August. Have a great week ahead everyone!

Hi Glenn, I was typing when you were typing lol. I am glad Bruce showed up and that you had a nice dinner out. Gluten free is healtful for some people so it may be a helpful change for you. Our little dogs keep me busy cleaning up the mud they track in so I almost know what you are talking about but they have short hair so the hair doesn't get too bad. You have a great week ahead too Glenn. TOWANDA!!!

Lisa - I ate a lot, but it is not like I eat out that often anymore - Bruce knows one of my neighbors - they grew up together in the same town I guess. Today - Tuesday - I hope to do some laundry. I am glad I don't live in Los Angeles any longer with all these earthquakes everywhere. The Northridge quake was like 6.7 and I was there - it was like an explosion but was deep enough it didn't cause as much damage as it could have - also whenever I lived there I always tried to live on the top floor of a building. Luanne sometimes can take me shopping on Tuesday, I probably could use a few things so may go like fruit and vegetables as I just got to WalMart last night and there is no produce at that store. It's sunny but cold - today I may try to go for a walk and also try to keep under 2000 calories intake...

Glenn I'm so glad that your friend Bruce was able to take you shopping and out to eat. Sounds like you are getting closer to finishing your book. Westerns are my oldest son's favorite. Louis LeMoore (I think that's the author) is my son's favorite books. Hoping that all your endevors succeed. Have a great day my friend.

I typed a comment earlier that didn't go in, the author's name is Louis L'Amour. Book 1 is done as will be Book 2 in a few weeks so I will send them out soon. The 3rd book is a western that needs fixing. Then it is onto typing in the other writing I have done onto the computer. Historical fiction, which the first two books genres are seem to be a bit more difficult I believe to write because one has to do so much research. Thanks for checking in. All I want is a bigger apartment, don't need lots of money to take care of myself as I have been living on very low income for years so if I get published I will be quite frugal with money in the future...
