    The equipment is NOT that expensive. And neither is the software. So I bought what I needed. I figure I might as well try it. If I'm not happy with my performance, I can always hire it out.

    I didn't think I needed to do research either. But as I'm developing my ideas for the audiobook I'm working on, I've been doing research on some of the ideas I've been working through. I wrote and published 2 books a couple of years ago. The audio version of the main book will be twice as long...

    OUR NEW PROJECT: We’ve finished putting the metal roofing on 3 sections of the building. It was a huge summertime project, and we just finished it. Last week, my husband used our bulldozer to pull a few more old vehicles and parts out of the wood. I got another roll-off dumpster delivered for...

    Good for you. I always tell the people around me, "Today is all you've got!" Yesterday is always gone. Tomorrow never gets here. I try to make every minute count. I almost died from kidney failure when I was young. I was always going to be happy when X happened. My doctors said I had 2 weeks...

    We had a really hard freeze last night. It got my pea plants. We've had fresh, eat-all peas all summer. And winter is coming soon. We've been splitting firewood in the evenings and stacking it. I have a bunch of projects lined up for this winter. I'll finish writing my audiobook and record it. I...

    My point exactly. If you don't like it, move. You have 2 feet. You don't know what I've lived through in my life. I don't drink, so I would find something else to do. You obviously have internet. The whole world is right there waiting for you. You could launch a personal learning program and...

    I cut my teeth 50 years ago in the real estate business in Los Angeles ghettos, working with gang bangers. So I know a little bit about rough environments. Now I live in Alaska, where the weather is extreme. I believe that you find whatever you look for, no matter where you are. I believe...

    I have lived in different places. If it floats your boat, then go. I just found that I had to take myself with me wherever I moved. I have learned that I can thrive whereever I am planted.

    Why are you letting this mood happen? My days are also getting shorter. That's reality. Life has seasons, with or without my approval.

    I'm using Chat as a writing aid all the time. Yes, I'm doing the writing, but I run it through Chat to see what it says and suggests. Sometimes I agree, and sometimes I don't. The one you're talking about looks like a way to quickly process a large amount of data and communications to pick out...

    On-site rehab: This week, we're gonna work on our shed roof over our triple-wide mobile home. The pieces and parts for the support structure are ready to be assembled. It's my LEGO project.

    I haven't posted in a while. I've been busy writing. I'm adding to the book I wrote a couple years ago and getting ready to record it. It will twice as long as the book I have published. Our new project: Well, it's not new anymore. We got the metal roof on Section #1. That's a 2,000 SF...

    I looked up this thread to see if you had an awakening. Nope, you're still sitting on your pity pot, throwing ashes on your head. Here's my parting thought. Life gives you what you look for. It's the system that underlies everything. What you look for colors everything you see, touch, or feel...

    I moved to downtown Los Angeles when I was 19 to go to college. I lived in Southern CA for 30 years, and I built a great career there. I retired about 25 years ago, but I'm still working about 60 hours per week. I'm not good at being retired. I got bored in no time flat. I'm sorry that you feel...
