I really haven’t been writing much lately, but I sure have been doing quite a bit of taping. Not only am I now working on edit tape number three, but I’m also going to be making a tape for Kim and Mark for their anniversary. Also, I have been editing down, which means getting rid of the boring stuff. Certain conversations and crossings are old, boring, and not funny. When I omit stuff like that, along with ringing several times until the person picks up, I save a lot of tape. All that ringing alone can really add up. I’ve gotten new blank tapes too, so I’ve put numbers on them, labeled them, and given them their identification names. I’ve also torn off old labels from Linda Ronstadt tapes as well as others and have replaced them.

Lastly, I have a few other projects to work on. First is Gloria's new medley. Second is going through the edit tapes to remove and edit just the one- or two-word sentences, followed by editing the longer sentences. Finally, I need to edit out all the laughing, which, of course, is mostly mine. That ought to keep me busy for a while.

Now, I do have much more to write about; however, I need to start editing more, so I’ll write later.
