LOOKING GOOD!                                                  Not!

My
first edition of the Gateway Gazette has not turned out the way I
expected! First of all the cover was printed in black and white, not
color--I explained to Suzanne if I had known that I would have put
together a different cover. After that I found out they didn't print
enough copies so less than half of the residents got their copy BUT those who did have been very complimentary to me.

We
haven't been having good luck with restaurant.com lately--4 out of the
last 5 restaurants we went to wouldn't accept their certificates. This
past Wednesday I had to go to my primary doctor so I got a certificate
for Murphy's Pub and Grub which was a block away. When we went in the
place the bartender informed us they didn't have a kitchen so Murphy's
Pub and Grub didn't have grub!!! Luckily right next to my doctor's office is an excellent New York type deli so that's where we had lunch!

Someone
asked how much time I spend on the Internet and since I am fairly well
organized my schedule is usually as follows: I check my email, look at
my blog notifications, read the comments at talkinbroadway/allthatchat from about 10 AM-Noon. In the evening, when I am home, watching TV, I
will check email, write a blog or two and check out a few regular web
sites. Between reading papers and magazines and doing 'things' around
the place I will check and answer emails. At 11 PM, while watching the
news, I will read 'recent posts' on blogster and mybloggers and leave some comments so all in all I spend 3-4 hours a day on the Internet, about an hour too much!

As
I mentioned last week I am going decal crazy. This week I got a few for
the windows--who knows what I will be putting up next week! LOL

Last,
but not least, this is a pork roast I made for a 'snack' tonight and
have to show off my blooming flowers 'raised' from seed!
