Low wattage

Caught the sinusitis too late yesterday for regular docs and intermediate care, so went to emergency room. Worth the $100, because I caught it before full blossoming.

Still, today rather veggy.

No real writing, but organized last two sections of this, the last realignment chapter.

Struggling a bit as to whether I need very specific list of "things to do" at end or whether it makes more sense to pitch it high and not pretend that tactics are the point of grand strategy (strike Iran or no?). Feel like I'm better here at laying down broad guidelines and principles and goals without drilling down on details.

If I do go for such a list, probably better to try during editing, once I get a sense as to how much covered elsewhere in book and I'm just forgetting because I haven't read the whole thing yet in full. I don't care for regurgitations at end of book.

So I got what I could get down today. Tomorrow, assuming brain works, I should cruise, perhaps nailing the whole thing.

Oy - hope you feel better, I'm fighting off the same thing. I can't believe you're lucid enough to even think about the finally of the book but I agree. Rehashing the whole thing at the end is bothersome. I usually skip them.

As a reader, I really love the use of a quote box. Pitch it to me high, but have the quote box right next to the pitch to show fine detail.

If the tactics are just at the end (as a kind of q&a) I find myself flipping between the text & the back section, bemoaning my lack of foresight in not bookmarking..

Try those sinus washes, they seem to work for me . . a mess, but you may feel better . . hope so . .
