The room is not on the lowest level this time, so I doubt I will see the fox.

It’s the exact same room, except for the refrigerator, which opens on the right. The other opened on the left, as does mine at home.

I futzed and finessed, added a page of new stuff, got rid of a couple of things, but we did get up to and over 48,000 words. Then I sent the last batch of pages to Muse Margaret - they're usually out on Sunday so she may not get to it until tomorrow.

Wordle:  5/6.   I was not familiar with today's word, so it was a good guess.

Neither was Keith.

As it turns out, Muse Margaret called hours ago and I didn't hear the damn phone. I was here, the phone was with me when I picked up the package - so irritating. But she left me a message and the new pages so I knew I was okay.

And I just had a long conversation - she was very emotional as was I last night, and she said just what any writer wants to hear: Do not change a single word. She has really loved this book from start to finish, except for the two bits she had me remove, which she was totally right about.

Do old people just have to stop eating ice cream? Or is it just me whose stomach cannot seem to deal with it anymore.

Try taking a chewable Laxtaid with the first bite, or getting a lower fat gelato.  I am very grateful for my Protonix that helps, plus every morning before breakfast I take one of these.

When did "donut" become a correct spelling? When I was a kid it was "doughnut."

Both are correct.
