I just cannot believe it that there are Jane Austen Fonts!

For the past few months, I had thought my book was to be done once and for all,  but again and again, I  found some errors to be corrected. Just like yesterday, I printed out another version of my Jane Austen's book and I didn't like it at all.

The new cover design was horrible. I found some missing parts in content. So I have to go back to change them.

這次在台北的餐廳 我就比較輕鬆 除了要花上一個多小時的通車時間 是周日 捷運上擠滿了人 我很慶幸自己很少需要上台北 

One Sunday Laura and I walked for a long time and went to the battery park. It has a big lawn and people come to exercise all the time. This is our first time on foot and ony the two of us.

I have had the very intention to watch this parade. Laura and I arrived too early and we were able to take photos before the parade. But then we went home and did not come out to  see the whole thing. I felt a bit let down because I don't know if I will be able to see it next year. We usually come to Taiwan in summer only. The parade is in Oct.

今天要去看台北的一家牙周病診所 是同學推薦的 我的牙齒已經痛了一年多

在台灣時看過 只說是牙床外漏 回到了美國去看牙醫 就先做了一顆根管治療 自費就花了美金兩千多元

Today I went to see 9 high school friends. Some I have not seen for 30 years. We met in a restaurant far away. I took the MRT to Taiwan University and then three people drove and we went to this restaurant. See the link below.

1. 今天我寄出三封投稿 聯經 皇冠 和大塊 三家 修改了這麼多次 我想大致是可以送出去了吧

2. 我上午突然接到新興國小電話 說今天有志工大會 我就去了 看到羅拉朋友的媽媽 所以覺得很好 還得知有田徑隊和畫畫課 都很適合女兒

This writing is for you, John, because I wrote my entry in Chinese first. I started my volunteer work for the small community college this Thursday morning. This picture is a cactus I found next to the public libray.

Today's job is  an one-time job. Mr. Hsien told me over the phone that I could come to help with dying the fabrics. These costumes are for the upcoming parade on Oct. 15 as part of the Tamshui Art Festival events.

讀書會明天就要開始了 不知道到底有幾個人會來 我對於這本書的第一句 突然又有了疑問

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.

今天早上，我要去參加女兒學校家長日，我先把讀書會的人數和通知寫好，現在還是有些不確定有多少人，(周日我就收到高中同學兩人下周都不能來 ，我心情就很低沉，我知道我的努力必須要堅持，吸引力法則，我是新朋友心作家，別人也有自己的情狀，有緣來相會)

尤其是大姊的朋友，把信發送出去了，發現 Evite也可以顯示中文，我的時間不多，要趕在十點以前出門，所以我要女兒煎鬆餅，她煮出來與老公的不同，比較黃色，我有些不解，我要女兒在我出去後，與爸爸視訊時問問他

周六 今年很幸運在台灣過中秋節，有三天連假，天氣明顯轉涼，周六去了大嫂三芝娘家烤肉，見到許多人，看到她家養的雞，還有自己種的菜，感覺很有人情味。拍到夕陽好美麗。

我每年回來台灣幾個月而已 所以就買了這個如意卡 總是用不完 原以為只能用三個月 今天查了 原來可以用六個月
