I am overslept .... and why did O'Sullivan???????

Been at it all day; need a snack. I will finish it tonight. I can believe how the Mule Soldiers can always out smart the rebs. Oh there is this outrageously hilarious incident that happened: Oh my!!!! How awesome.

12:35 a.m. My eyes are so dry, the letters are out of focus.

Oh how tense I become when the skirmishes begin, then they pull back and regroup. Then, very tense anticipating what is coming next right out of sight! I know it is impossible for me not to get into the story. I think I must be reading it too slow for the above reasons.......... regroup, breathe a little,, and release the tension knitting up in my guts. Mr. Blair Howard, you are a civil war genius!!!!!

At the beginning of Chapter 11. I can't believe all those infantryman had to be outside in the soaking rain, making their wool coats and clothes heavier and heavier. Now I can understand why so many died of illnesses. And they were so excited when the war broke out....have to enlist.

When the Feds found out they had to pick mules, the hilarity commenced!!!!!!! Mr. Blair has an excellent sense of humor. I was laughing my arse off. Then, elsewhere, fighting broke out, and ......... come read the book with me!!!!!!!
