I am again stuck at home when I'd rather be at church. But, like C.S. Lewis, I take full advantage of forced resting time to enjoy good literature. This morning I read a chapter from Enter Jeeves by P.G. Wodehouse. My friend the award winning and world-recognized musician recommended it to me, and when the hammer dulcimer champion OF THE WORLD recommends a book to you, you read it! I am enjoying the book immensely. I also took a couple of my sick-stay-on-the-couch days to read Suds in Your Eye, a light and comedic book written in 1942 by Mary Lasswell to offer a few laughs to the depression era, wartime, American people.
I entitled this post as I did because I seem to have collected many very colorful characters in my life. They not only enrich my life, but the lives of all of my friends and relations. I am so very thankful for all the characters in the play of my life. "All the world's a stage," says Shakespeare and Madonna, and the stage of my life is filled with wonderful comedic, tragic, dramatic, loving, vengeful, but all interesting, actors.

Ah yes, I had to stay home last Sunday too, due to a bit of a cold... and I read some good ol' Jeeves and Wooster too.
Oh wait, is that me you're talking about who recommended the book? I'm not actually sure I've read that one... they all are pretty much the same so I forget which ones I've read. Regardless, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) (And it was a national contest, not international, just for the record. ;)
. . . so I embellish. One thing I've learned is that you take any compliments you can get(even if they are somewhat less than accurate.)
My apologies. I'm honored to have been mentioned in your blog in any case. ;)
"and Madonna" - Thank you!
I want to be as well-read as you. I'm not and I studied English!
