Yesterday, I walked 4 miles to the red barn and back, but that was the first walk since last Tuesday. Too busy and too cold.
Helen has given me a number that I can download ebooks from the library out where she is now. I can also download ebooks for our local library which is connected to the download library for the whole state of Arkansas. When I go to our library site, it says the Arkansas state library has a little more than 15,000 ebooks available. Helen's little library has over 71,000 books available. Still, I have read most of the books I want to read from either library. Currently I am on a waiting list at both libraries for the Alexander Hamilton book. I always thought of Alexander Hamilton as an aristocrat, but in reality he was a penniless starving orphan from Barbados. I have been on the western sky list for about a month and am still far from the top. I added my name to the Arkansas list this morning. There are 32 people waiting here. I will see which one I get first.
I just read The Invisible Wall by Harry Bernstein. It is about growing up Jewish in England in the early 1900, It is a very good book. Harry wrote it when he was in his 90's. He wrote a couple more before he died in 2011. After I read or not the 3 I have downloaded now, I am going to see if they have his other books,
Last night I made pork steaks and fired potatoes. I love fried potatoes. They were not all eaten, so I am having fried potatoes for breakfast. Today I am making chicken and homemade noodles for Helen and Hannah. They both love homemade noodles in our chicken and noodles. I prefer boughten noodles for both taste and convenience.
Here comes the sun. Time to get busy,
