A funny thing happened - work and a cold. In the greater scheme of things, a cold is just a nuisance - from Latin, nocere - to hurt. And it does hurt: my head, throat, and dignity! Nothing more strenuous last week than sleeping and channel surfing - daytime television is even worse than I remembered from the last cold in 2004.
But, I digress. The next subject, HISTORY OF THE MIDDLE AGES should be a lead pipe cinch! Among my many (and I do mean many) books are at least 25 directly connected to the Middle Ages, including TIMELINE by Michael Crichton as well as mysteries by Michael Jecks and Susanna Gregory. There are also very scholarly books and fun-scholarly books such as the OUTLINE OF HISTORY by Will and later Will and Ariel Durant.
So, today, I begin anew, fully confident that I will not finish all 28 subjects by the time of the class reunion in June, 2010. Also sure that I will not get into my prom dress by that time either - but the tiara still fits!
