Section 10 is PL OK.

Sacerdotal? I've never seen or heard that before! And I didn't know a kobold was a gnome.

I'm learning so much new vocabulary!

And useful vocabulary, too! I’m still looking for a chance to slip “desultory” into a conversation.

I see that there is some PL to do and I'll get to it on Sat.

It is a perfect fall day here in Colorado and I need to get outside for a hike to see the fall colors!
Just want to let you know I'm here and will get back to "work" soon!

No sweat. Many a time I’ve opted sunshine and fresh air over sitting in my 8x8 box.

Sections 11-12 sounding great, jocosely and great!

Thanks!

I think we are moving right along and then I realize that we have 39 sections!

Will Carol give into the Village Virus? Or will Pollock sweep her off her feet and move to the city?
Only the future will tell!

I have Village Virus! I'm 40 minutes from Denver but haven't gotten out of my pajamas since Sat. Thank goodness my husband likes my pajamas! Ha!

I read the entire book 10+ years ago, so I’ve forgotten much of the detail. I usually preread a chapter before I record it, but didn’t before 13, so I didn’t realize what was going on til the end, when it was “oh, he’s not mansplaining, he’s making a pass!” Had to re-record the chapter. But my gift from 14 was “difficile.” Last year I got a hideous intestinal infection that put me in the hospital for a week, clostridium difficile. And yes, it was both difficult and stubborn.

Carol maybe difficile but I'm more worried that she compared her bed's foot board to a the foot stone of the grave of love.

Sorry to hear about last year's medical problem. Ouch! Take care!

Chapter 14 is perfect. I really don't think you actually need a DPL, your recordings are so perfect!

Almost halfway in terms of pages, though.

Mark,

Section 15 is perfect . . . "honest socks"? compared to what? dishonest? not HOLY? HA!

Section 16 has one little mistake but it bugs me, sorry;

18:11 You say she wondered why "SHE" instead of HE

Normally this would be fine but Pollock is about to say something that bugs Carol so I think it is important enough to change. Thanks.

Naw, gotta fix that.
