Wonderful Wordy Wednesday

End of February and when we get sunny days you can really tell that the sun is setting later in the day. If I am reading, it is like, whoops, time for dinner!

The gift cards from the library system were for $25 and were to three different places. Amazon, KwikTrip (local gas / convenience store) and Culver's a local fast food place which also has frozen custard. I got one for Culver's and they are close to my house, so yes I go there. Good food!

Weather has warmed up and most of our snow is gone. I was out adding seed to the bird feeders and the ground was wet and squishy. I have been watching for some of the early migrating birds such as robins and red-winged blackbirds. So far nothing!

News that my usual yarn source is going out of business. I do have other sources of yarn. Glad I stocked up and will check the store closing sales. I plan to walk through the closest store today after my pedicure to see what they have and if they have started any sale. 

Taxes completed yesterday, so another spring task completed. Need to get the oil changed on the car and schedule Ducky for a vet visit.

 

The Cancer Factory a non-fiction book that delves into the continuing concerns of chemicals in the workplace. The story mostly involves workers who worked at or with chemicals of Goodyear, Goodrich and DuPont. The health issues that workers, spouses and children have all had based upon the exposure of the worker. Practices of the companies that chose to hide what they knew, didn't provide adequate protection or coverage of health procedures. We continue to be exposed.

Essex Dogs is from author Dan Jones. Jones is a historian who has written several books on the Plantagent and Tudor eras. This is a work on historical fiction, following a band of fighters from Essex at the beginning of the Hundred Years' War, covering about six weeks of fighting. This war was during the Plantagent era during King Edward III reign.

The Queen: 70 Years of Majestic Style is a lovely overview of the late Queen Elizabeth's look. Day wear, gowns, day dresses, hats, tiaras, handbags and more. Lots of pictures to show the items that the author refers to in the text. 


Or tea or hot chocolate or beverage of your choice!

 





 Happy Reading.
