Gail, there's a lot happening at the Black Rock Library. Tough to take a break from work to get to all those events

Gail: I read the book and it's hard to put down. Tough to take in spots...but a compelling read. I'll be surprised if the movie is as captivating.

Gail, I am simply amazed at how you keep up with all of your community's events and post themn faithfully on your blog. I ned to take some pointers from you. I heard of this book before, but I have not yet read it. That might be next on my reading list...

Ed - I've been working until midnight weeknights this Spring. (Not complaining!)

Kirsten - Reading - yes, I have to find time to do that!

William - I think my second profession is publishing. I created the demand and now people bug me to publish info on the community and even get mad at me if I don't. What have I gotten myself into?

Hi Gail - VERY WELL PUT...These people drive me crazy. If I don't answer the door they come through the window. The feedback should be the OFFER. I give feedback if I think it will be helpful and WON'T hurt my buyers position. But I don't have time for endless calls and 25 emails demanding more feedback.

As to your response to William - YOU HAVE THAT TOO!!!! I'm glad I'm not alone! I've got a few people all over me for these events. The difficulty is that I am running a real estate blog not Craigs list. Particularly with respect to my Wordpress blog - I need it to pull for REAL ESTATE. It can't be 3/4 public service announcements. I had someone really kind of snippy that I didn't put up a post on church event. I can't do them all! Also, since I'm trying to attract people from NYC - a bunch of church events could even be a turn-off. There has to be some proportion.

Sorry - that was meant for your other blog....UGH!! I clicked the wrong button and wondered why the comment stream was what it was.
