Jeanne!!  It's good to "see" you again.  I had to laugh at "pathetic reading habits"....I know just what you mean!

Thanks Vicky and Cheryl! I have got to get back on track with reading. Since we have acquired two new dogs (one of which is only 4 months old now) I'm being kept quite busy. We lost our 7 year old Cairn terrier mix in February to a very agressive malignant tumor and our Yorkie was diagnosed with liver failure (she's going on 15!) so we figured it was time to provide homes for other dogs that needed them! Haven't had a puppy in ages and this one is going through the "terrible twos" right now - LOL!

DH will need more surgery on his cervical vertebrae and he has his initial appointment at Mayo Clinic on June 5th. This sounds rather serious so I don't know just how busy I'm going to be with all of that. Actually, it's been a crazy, crazy year so far!

Wasn't quite sure where to put this.

Checking Elizabeth Chadwick's site, she has a new release listed for September 2019 in the UK. Entitled "The Irish Princess".  The ISBN is: 9780751575613.  It's new-not a re-issue.  Not listed on PBS yet.

I don't even have "Templar Silks" yet!

Merry Christmas!

I checked-both of these still have WL here on PBS.  

Both $1.99 today on Amazon.

 

Bernard Cornwell "The Flame Bearer"-Saxon Tales

This one surprised me.  Just released in December.  As a "Royal Family" geek, I've been eagerly awaiting this one.   "The Gown" by Jennifer Robson.  About the women who created Princess Elizabeth's wedding gown in 1947.
