Here's the latest update on Pen Farthing's attempts to get his 200 dogs and catys and staff safely out of Afghanistan. I am so worried for them

Since the drive back from Louisville, I haven't made enough time to listen to my book, The Six: The Lives of the Mitford Sisters. It's due back tomorrow and I have less than two hours left. I don't know if I'll be able to finish it. But I'm taking my earbuds and will give it a try. Since it's a new book, I don't know if there's a waiting list or not.

I can't imagine there's a waiting list for the Mitford sisters.

Fascinating story, though. The fascist sisters who were friends of Hitler, the communist sister, the forgotten brother and the novelist all make for one weird family. Friends of Winston Churchill and the Kennedys, etc.

DR TCB I was hoping the pain specialist might have suggested something more helpful than your normal pain management.

And of course, if anyone wants a refund, it takes forever! :P

I love Hudson Talbott's dinosaur books. I wonder if he would be interested in illustrating Annabelle & Thatch?

Well, chalk down Hudson Talbott. It was a kind rejection.

On my walk, I looked up and saw three deer in the yard across the street from where I was walking. They stared at me and I just stared right back.

I did get a picture.
