Air Mail

Misao is sending a relief package to her family in Japan. Her sister told her that they will have periods without electricity for many hours a day, and it will continue until Winter returns. Hopefully it will leave soon. So most important are these LED lights. The rechargeable should work well when the lights go out at night. We haven't tested any of them ourselves. Those little disposal waterproof lights look neat.

Misao wants to make an emergency kit. These next two years will have many more catastrophes of various types so we hear.

The gym is still crowded. Despite the cold, the bright sunshine has been inviting, but I didn't get out for a ride today. Maybe tomorrow. My weight is down a bit though. Started the strength training again.

I e-mailed Amazon's digital book / Kindle platform. Asking some questions about my book, it seems some other e-book seller (I didn't know I made my book available to other e-book sellers) was offering my book for free as a promotion, so they were offering it for free. Yes, it is clearly in the contract that they can do that. And while they are supposed to have numbers as to how many they gave away, that function hasn't been working. I cannot win for losing. No profits and they can't even let me know how popular it was. It's currently a mere one dollar and we could use the help. I am sure you will enjoy it. At least one of the dozens that my counters suggest come to the blog.
