Monday of the last week of the year

Hi:

I changed the fonts on my computer, so this is bigger.

It is raining here and has been raining here all day. I want to go the bank but not until it stops raining.

I am enjoying reading The Emperor's Tomb. Now the author is mentioning Kunming China. I was there for a trip from there. He has the characters going to Xi'an, where I was for six months. Nice to read a novel of China where places I have been in China.

I have 3 more books coming to the library very soon. I have another book I want to read first, The Civil War of 1812. This was our second Civil War, with the Revolutionary War being the first and third being the big one in 1860.

I am watching the weather outside closely.
