I just read a very interesting article on education for women in earlier times. How they were considered to have little in the way of brains and received only education in the housewifely arts. I hope they were taught to read. I cannot even think of not being able to entertain myself by reading a book.
I just got waylaid by biographies of Lady Caroline Lamb, Lord Byron and Anne Boleyn. I have read many pieces of Anne Boleyn and find her so interesting. That period of history with Henry VIII and his six wives is one of great interest to me and has been for s great part of my life. Anne Boleyn is a fascinating study of a tragic life. She gave birth to Elizabeth the 1st and ushered in the Great Elizabethan Age.
Back to the life of Nan and Ray. We did get out today even if it was just to Safeway for bread and juice.
We did some housework , Ray did most of it. He has some new pills from the doctor for his arthritis and they are magical. He is able to do whatever he wants.
The day is very foggy and so it is tonight as well. Ray just looked out the window and said the fog was right down to the ground. I do not like fog, it leaves you feeling dirty and damp. I remember walking home from school when I was young and how awful that for made me feel.
