Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers my husband has had a stroke and our grandson has bilateral pneumonia. Both are admitted to the same hospital. William can move everything and talk, he is unable to walk right now. The stroke affected the area of his brain that controls balance. He also has an irregular heart rhythm that probably caused the stroke. Unsure right now. More tests tomorrow. Griffin is on iv fluids and antibiotics πŸ’”

Repost from Stacy!

To My #Litsylove Letter Writers πŸŒπŸ“ πŸ’ŒπŸ“¬πŸ’›!!!

Hi Snail Mailers who write me - each week I‘ve been sending on used stamps for a Fundraiser for a Charity called Hearing Dogs. If they reach a specific number of used stamps, they get a financial boost/donation. If anyone who writes to me wants to include your used stamps from received #Litsylove, that would be amazing!! I‘ll post when the fundraiser ends πŸΆβ€οΈπŸ’ŒπŸ“¬

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks If anyone who is not in #LitsyLove and wants to participate you can send you stamps to me! My email is loverofbooks75@gmail I will get them there! Thank you! 5d

#LitsyLove peeps!!

Just for fun and a happy! No googling!!

The longest sentence in a book is over 800 words long (!!!) and can be found in which book? πŸ€”

If you go to the Facebook page you can hear the jeopardy them song that will be in my head all day!!

Roary47 I‘m pretty sure is a classic, but don‘t know which. Moby Dick? I assume there is a huge monologue in there. πŸ˜… 5d

Had to leave work this morning and go to the doctor. Most of you know that I talk on the phone all day at work and I lost my voice a couple of days ago. Turns out I have strep and bilateral ear infections 😫I‘m going to try to start this one. I‘m having chills so I may not make it very far. Have you read it or any of this author‘s books! I loved The Housemaid and Do Not Disturb πŸ–€

tonymp I read The Housemaid and I loved it. I read it from start to finish in one night, it was a huge page turner. I plan to read this next one soon. I hope you feel better soon! Strep sucks. I got it a lot when I was a kid. 6d
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @cinda.marie I‘ll send it to you when I finish it… thank you 😊 6d
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @tonymp I agree! Thank you! Not very often an adults get strep πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ 6d
tonymp @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks You'd be surprised about adults getting strep! I got it quite often from childhood well into my mid thirties, although the frequency of it tapered off when I started college. I think I got it a total of 5 times throughout my twenties. Some people don't like being over 40. I really don't mind! I had one bad year, age 8. I got it four times! 6d

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @tonymp omg!! That‘s a lot! I‘m 47 and don‘t like it one bit! It‘s better than the alternative though! I talk on the phone for 12 hours and the doctors were telling me today that I need to see a doctor and rest my voice πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ they couldn‘t understand anything I was saying! 6d

ShelleyBooksie Hope you feel better soon!! β™‘ 6d
dragondrool Feel better! I lost my voice for three days when I was in the middle of student teaching 31 sixth graders. It was just from strain. Katie loved it, because any time I needed everyone's attention, I would signal her and she'd holler for me. 6d
tonymp @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I'm also 47! Strep free for quite a long time, since my thirties. Honestly, and I'm not a scientist (actually, I'm a Spanish teacher, not good at science), I think it just has to do with random crap. I've always had to be a talker, and I mean a public speaker (you know, language teaching) so the more you open your mouth, the more your mouth is open. The bacteria just see you with your mouth open and fly in there. 6d
