Hope you get some good rest, Pammy Jo. Maybe someone will come up with an answer by the time you get back...πŸ˜‚

My mind read it, and then my brain just immediately couldn't stop laughing. I can't control it. 🀣🀣


Emma | meadowroselibrary And what makes you so angelic with that? 🀣


Emma | meadowroselibrary I'm going to guess with Dorry.

I'm innocently looking at you, wondering why you're laughing at such a tragedy!

I can't picture you with a halo. 🀣
I'm not laughing at the tragedy, I'm laughing at you trying so hard! πŸ˜‚


Emma | meadowroselibrary Not that I'm any better...πŸ˜’


Emma | meadowroselibrary I don't mean that you're bad at the quiz!

So close yet so far. Well Pammy Jo, shall we tell them? πŸ˜‚


message 8526: by Pamela (new)

Pamela | 2209 comments I just woke up from my nap! I can't believe I slept so long! I need to do a couple of things, but I'll be back with my answer soon!


message 8527: by Pamela (new)

Pamela | 2209 comments Dorothy was SO close! Longfellow's second wife, Fanny, was fatally burned when her dress caught fire. While trying to put out the fire, Longfellow was severely burned on his face and hands. He could not shave due to injuries, so his beard grew. Because of severe scars, he continued to wear a beard for the remainder of his life. Fannie was seated at her desk when her dress caught fire. She died the next day.

It's very sad. During the 1800's, thousands of women lost their lives when their dresses caught fire.

Thanks, Pammy Jo! It was so tragic. In the pictures of him taken after that happened I can see the grief in his face.

Many things come to me...and then leave right away! LOL! My longterm memory is great, but my short term memory is terrible. The doctor says it's because of my illness and it is normal. Frankly, I don't think I've ever been "normal" based on what normal seems to be in today's world!πŸ€ͺ

I don't believe short-term memory loss is only due to age or health. Because I've walked into a room and forgot what I went in for for as far back as I can remember! πŸ˜‚


Emma | meadowroselibrary I thought that was normal? πŸ˜‚
