I've complied. :-)
Me too! ...
Also, just noticed - you post memes and your husband posts stories of how he gives you near concussions. This amuses me somehow. I hope you're feeling better!!
Diane--
I'm okay now. The dizziness is gone, which is nice as the stuff they gave me to alleviate that made me very tired. I couldn't tell if I was wobbly from the bonk or from the pill!
Either way--lie down. Sleep.
Now all I have is a sore neck, which Tylenol takes care of. And he's feeling plenty guilty as it is, so I just let him beat up on himself. He does a better job of it anyway.
We just finished reading Queen's Own Fool for the kids, which is historial fiction about a handmaid of Mary.
Lord Darnley figures prominently, of course.
Glad you enjoyed it, Heather, and I enjoyed reading your meme. :)
