Well I owe my wife of 25 years an apology and "I am sorry." A few months ago she declared that I would need to get of lots of books, clothes, and stuff before their would be room for me in our new home (as yet undecided). I immediately paniced seeing my self alone in a room with one chair,a TV, my Nook, and one suit of clothes. I of course rebelled at this solitary notion. Next she put our home on the market and ripped out one of my bookshelves. Now I really worried, would I be left with no stuff at all! again I howled like a cat in heat. We had words in which she denied all of it and more. I of course ignored this. Well time passes and I am still harping on the subject. Until today. I have a bit of cabin fever what with the ice and snow and snow and ice and snow. Well I get the bright idea to join a book club rahter than going shopping and I asked mommy for permission and now I have 4 books on order (Washington,Colonel Roosevelt,For Us the Living, and Lincoln in 3D). Now I should have been happy but no not me I pressed on. Next I looked up my favorite place to buy books Amazon.com. And again I asked please. Again permission granted and on order is 3 more books at half price (Lion of Liberty,Fall of Giants, and New York Times Civil War Complete). Now thats 7 new books on order and all I have to do is select 12 old books from my archives to make room for the new. So I guess I am happy and sorry. And to top it all off I unexpectedly got the 2011 Swimsuit edition and Replay baseball 2010. Wow just plain Wow!!
