Busy, but exciting. On Friday, Cheryl and I drove up to Kennewick for a "Lasik Consultation". My peepers were declared to be perfect candidates for the procedure, so June 25th I will be having Lasik surgery in Kennewick! We will drive up there that day, I'll have the procedure done, then we'll spend the night and drive home the next day after they look deep into my eyes another time, to make sure everything's skookum. I have to go back a week later, then a month later, then three months later; at that point, if everything's going well, it's "Don't go away mad, just go away". If there's any change, or a tweak is necessary along the way, that's covered in the fees...
Even more exciting than that, I finally got the book block and cover finished for my setup of my first book, Complications, under the Sisley Creek Press imprint! Saturday the weather was crap, so I stayed indoors and worked on finalizing it. I uploaded it to the printer's website this morning. I should have the proof in the relatively near future; then if it comes out the way it should, I'll order some and get back into the business of selling books! The learning curve on the formatting software has been pretty steep, but I think I've finally got it pretty well figured out. Next up: the rerelease of Book 2, Tyler's Law, under the Sisley Creek Press banner. Stay tuned, folks. Things are just getting going. I hope...
Saturday afternoon we went to the wedding of a kid I hauled to a lot of rodeos when he was in high school and the niece of a friend of ours. It was an outdoor wedding, and the weather looked like monsoon, but the sun actually came out during the ceremony, like the Good Lord was smiling on the whole thing. The reception was indoors, so it didn't matter if it rained then. The food was good, the beer was cold, and a lot of people were there, including a gal we hadn't seen in twenty-some years. Cheryl got to catch up on what Marcie and her family were doing...
