I am sitting here in awe and wonder in that people are willing to pay ten dollars apiece to come and hear me speak at a breakfast!! The hall is filled at the M-------- Woman's Club and almost a thousand dollars has been raised already for their "good cause!!"
The company got some excellent publicity yesterday in the Indepentdent but only Rosezelle's picture was shown!! At the library tonight,..a total stranger walked up to me and said, "I think that it should have been your picture in the paper instead of that other lady!!"
I signed her book for her,..but explained that my name is not on the "isbn" number so that I could not be listed as the official author.
"Ptuuuiii!" says the old lady, "I've been reading about you for years in the newspapers and we all know who lived and worked with Nellie!"
I sold all of Shakespeare's books for her and should have a check for her before the first of Oct!! The "girl" can write! :D!
None of this good stuff can change the fact that Annie is passing. I am not her nurse anymore..even though I have agreed to bring some kittens to see her. She still recognizes people.
The little boy...is...heart-broken. Mommy is dying. Last night on the telephone..he asked me...,"Where is God?"
Bill, who was helping me with the phone call,..almost had to leave the room. This child is eleven years old and his mama is dying.
I find myself echoing, "Where is God?"
