We is sick....


Update: I am still experiencing the stomach flu but on the down side of the slope. Steve is just starting it -- pretty badly -- today. With him being diabetic, I've got to keep a close eye on him. We are a plague house. Stay away.

I did go to Walmart today to get some needed food and supplies. Also stopped by Petsmart for the dogs.


I think I'll be reading KILLING LINCOLN by Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard. This is nonfiction. Here is a description:
One of the most dramatic stories in American history—how one gunshot changed the country forever. In the spring of 1865, the bloody saga of America's Civil War finally comes to an end after a series of increasingly harrowing battles. President Abraham Lincoln's generous terms for Robert E. Lee's surrender are devised to fulfill Lincoln's dream of healing a divided nation, with the former Confederates allowed to reintegrate into American society. But one man and his band of murderous accomplices, perhaps reaching into the highest ranks of the U.S. government, are not appeased.In the midst of the patriotic celebrations in Washington D.C., John Wilkes Booth—charismatic ladies' man and impenitent racist—murders Abraham Lincoln at Ford's Theatre. A furious manhunt ensues and Booth immediately becomes the country's most wanted fugitive. Lafayette C. Baker, a smart but shifty New York detective and former Union spy, unravels the string of clues leading to Booth, while federal forces track his accomplices.
It was published in September and 336 pages. I also have 11 4MA digests to read. And newspapers, and blogs, and....

Much love,
