--I've been editing the Social-X series and have become discouraged.  I was intent on editing it, then submitting for e-book consideration in the appropriate format.  But as I continue the editing process, I am coming to think that there is very little interest in the topics that comprise the series as I have interpreted them.  My treatment is too intellectual, technical and dissimilar, frankly, to how others talk of these matters.  So, I am slowing down the effort to edit, etc. the series.

--However, that has given me time to think of extending the series by including at least one more topic: that being--social meaning.  I raised the topic in the rumination on federalism paper and may include aspects of other ruminations under this rubric.

--Meantime, I am enjoying my move to El Paso, settling back into routines I have developed over the years of being in this city.  One thing that concerns me as it would other seniors of my age:  I want to stay downtown where I'm at, though it may seem I should be in some senior housing project, e.g., assisted living.  I had a chance at living in that situation in L.A. before I went on to El Paso from Omaha.
