I decided to take part in WORDLESS WEDNESDAY. Making morning coffee isn't the first thing I do. Actual the first things I do is go potty, and wash. I don't want think where my hands been during the night.
I start reading the first journal of Queen Victoria. In her first journal she a teenager, and at that time she had the title of Princess. What two things I find interesting in her journal. Is how she writes related to time. Like...Got up at ¼ to 9 and breakfast by myself and ¼ p 10 played on the piano. Before I sat down to typed out today post. I was organizing my college supplies. But I'm clueless the time I start or ended. I'm sure I will will work on it again this afternoon. Then the other thing how she explain things. More details in her journals. Like color, scene, size, and plain simple more detail. The camera didn't come popular until the late 1800's. What I heard Queen Victoria and Prince Albert was into photography and even had a dark room in the resident. They was no camera around tell about 1840's and she had pass the age of 18. It figured the first picture of her was in year of 1847, and she at the age of 28. So no wonder things was explain in more details. At this time in her journal. She don't talk of emotions, or her opinions. What I heard she mother read her entries, and after her death her daughter, Princess Beatrice edited her journal after her death.
Don't know why I'm just sore all over. Got Pizza in the oven. Murphy vacuumed today. Dried some clothes and folded them. Over cast as for weather.
Coffee is on.
Pizza sounds good
