Outcome...

I didn't get as far as I thought that I would. I got about half of it done. I wanted to go back and listen to things and clean things up. I can't just leave stuff alone. I have to go back in and mess with it all again. Regardless, I'm glad that I was able to make a few changes here and there.

Tomorrow is the 4th of July. It's going to be a relatively quiet day tomorrow. The boys are gone with their grandparents and Meghan and Matt will be out at someone's house working on the goat pens that they are making so that the boys can have goats. Perhaps I'll be able to get more done on BA. :)

And still get the house clean and whatnot. Clothes washed, etc.

We'll see how it all plays out.

Back and ready to work.

It was a very nice personal funeral for our cousin, Don Simms yesterday. It was nice to see some of our family, but it's just not the best time to meet and catch up on what's going on with everyone.

Regardless...

I am ready to work on again on audio, so... here we go. Let's see how much I can get done this evening. At least I'm hoping to get through all the changes that Jerry would like for the first 23 pages and then, I'll just continue to mosey on through it.

So... off to work, I go. :)

Tis sad...

We are leaving in a little bit to go to Throckmorton for a funeral today. It's sad that Matt's cousin, Don Simms passed away on Monday. He was having issues for the last month. Last week, they put him into hospice. So, it was just a matter of time. He was 72 years old.

I don't like going to funerals. Not one bit. Seeing family - yeah... it's good, but not in that way.

It's going to be a long drive and I'm not looking forward to it. We'll get there sometime this evening. I just hope that it's not too late.

Matt is also making a part of this a delivery so we are hauling steel down there too. So, even part of this trip is going to be a work thing.

Also on this particular trip, Thursday we are dropping the kids off with my mom and dad. The 13 year old boys will have a chance to hang out and work with their grandparents. It's going to be nice to have a little break from them. I will miss them terribly though.

Well, I must eat something before Matt gets here and we leave.



Did I mention that I don't like funerals?

Another Day...

It's been a very busy busy day again, today. Between the house work, the constant goings on with family and the mixing of this particular audio, I've been keeping myself relatively busy busy busy.

I'm enjoying mixing this audio, as it continues to go on. It's not anything like the moody piece of Moonfleet that I did before and that's quite okay. Every story has it's own little piece of flair to it and Buck Alice and the Actor Robot most definitely has it's own. I'm just thoroughly enjoying it. Even when I have to beat my head against the desk trying to find the right sound that I'm looking for and wondering where I put it that particular sound that I'm looking for.

There is a lot of things that's going on with us at Colonial Radio Theatre. I just know that from what I heard of the few productions that are going on - it's going to be a wonderful listening experience for anyone who enjoys book radio. :)

At least I'm enjoying them; especially the ones that my senior co-hort, Seth Adam Sher, has been producing as well. He's really an awesome producer and he's a wiz at getting them done in record time.

Ok. More work to do and I'm going to try to get a bit more of it done... it's a massive project but you know, I always enjoy a challenge!
