The Bat Cave is my writing room where I hide away from the world and come up with all this crazy nonsense that keeps me sane.

I've only been up 3 hours and this day is moving much to fast. The two 'darlings when they're asleep' will be up soon and my peace and quiet will turn to chaotic and loud. I'll add to this as the day progresses but I think its going to be my new mode of posting to facebook. That way I won't annoy those who think I post to much. I can type on here all day long and it will appear as one post to facebook and believe me you really have to be my friend to come back and read the rest. That is just fine, I can amuse myself all by myself.
Forgot to bring the chocolate doughnuts from DD, "I promise I'll get them this afternoon." I said.
I see I have to tell you that this is Celine Dion singing "All By Myself"
Maybe it's just me, but Callie Bergeron sure has Celine's eyes, and Callie can sing too.
I have much to do but I so feel like procrastinating.

This Day March 11, 1941 – World War II: President Franklin D. Roosevelt
signs the Lend-Lease Act into law, allowing American-built war supplies
to be shipped to the Allies on loan. Did You Know: Lend-Lease

total of $50.1 billion (equivalent to $647 billion today) worth of
supplies were shipped: $31.4 billion to Britain, $11.3 billion to the
Soviet Union, $3.2 billion to France, $1.6 billion to China, and smaller
sums to other Allies. Reverse Lend-Lease comprised services such as
rent on air bases that went to the U.S., and totaled $7.8 billion; of
this, $6.8 billion came from the British and the Commonwealth. ...See More
