Saturday Updates

Boy is it ever nice to wake up to this: 'Four of the Israeli hostages abducted by Hamas were freed in a special IDF operation in Nuseirat in central Gaza on Saturday.' A great day for Israel. A great day for Jews. A great day for humanity. A terrible blow to Hamas. 

Services last night. 

We lifted Thursday and did a six mile walk yesterday. 

With dance recitals recited, dance is over. Which means no more dance taxi. We have our Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings back. 

The Things:

The read through of the World War 1990: Norway proof is proceeding, slowly, but it is proceeding. The read through will proceed further today. The more we read the less we like. This is normal. It's time to wrap up this project and get on with the rest of our life.

The researching of World War 1990: Thatcher's War is going swimmingly. We think we're about to read a lot of Tim Pat Coogan. We've learned that we need to take the Irish army seriously. We've been writing intro scenes describing the world situation one week after the raid on Moscow. Remember, TW helps lay the groundwork for future post-WWIII novels. TW will probably open with Irish character POVs the night WWIII begins. World War 1990: Thatcher's War is 9,000 words.
