Advice or Criticism

Often times they are mistaken. There is a big difference between the two. There are similarities between the two. Sometimes one is mistaken for the other because of the speaker...sometimes it is because of the one doing the receiving. In some ways criticism intended can be advice received. In some ways advice intended is criticism received. The result of either can be invaluable or devastating. If I had more time right now that would be an interesting word study.

Monday Hurrys

The clock says 6am but it isn't because of getting up early. Finally finished learning what I needed to know to fix the Table of Contents insert into Word for the book so it is completed except for the design and creation of the back cover, as well as the obtaining the legal mumbo jumbo for the copyright and publication but that will all be part of the upload to and through the publisher. There is no doubt in my mind that it will come back for some correction or another but it is down now to just those few obstacles. Next week the marketing campaign begins and will take over as my "main" project for awhile.

Got to do some serious catching up in my little place before all the kinfolk start showing up for the holidays...and get ready for LG's Christmas. The presents are bought but they aren't wrapped, means I've got to get some newspaper. :)

New Browser

Being frustrated with Internet explorer 8 freezing up and not responding, I'm giving Google Chrome a try. Really fast install and imported all my links..so far I'm impressed how fast it moves but I definitely need to take some time with the settings to get the font the right size for my eyes and the background color changed...and then work with it awhile to see if it freezes up too.

Unusual Signs

Drive through windows in convenience stores is still more rare than not. One that i went to had signs for the waiting customer that I just had to talk them into letting me get a picture of. Amusing marketing environment these days. So many smiles in this life.
