There, now at least I'll know something about it next time. Now I want to reread the poems it was in.

I get to read all I want with no niggling guilt feelings tomorrow. Might have to drive my son to Atlanta to look at a school, but other than that and maybe a few jobs the appliances can mostly take care of, I'm free. Worked hard on things today, so tomorrow I'm taking it easy on the housework.

Worked hard on things today, so tonight, I'm tired.

Till next time.
