It’s Sunday morning, and at 6:30 AM, there is no hint of the sun popping up from the east. The rain is expected to arrive by 9 AM or 10 AM.
There is not much to report this morning. My bedroom is 95% completed in the room swap and organization. I am chomping at the bit to complete the closet exchange so I can have my clothes in the bedroom and more storage space in my study.
On this date in history: (2008) Ten gunmen—who were believed to be connected to Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistan-based terrorist organization—launched a series of coordinated attacks in Mumbai (Bombay); the siege ended three days later, with at least 174 people killed. (1942) Set in occupied Morocco during World War II, directed by Michael Curtiz, and starring Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, and Paul Henreid, Casablanca premiered this day in 1942 and became one of Hollywood’s most-revered films. (1941) U.S. Secretary of State Cordell Hull sent a harsh notice to Japan, calling for a full withdrawal from China and Indochina. (1939) American singer Tina Turner—who found success in the rhythm-and-blues, soul, and rock genres—was born. (1917) The National Hockey League was founded and featured four Canadian teams; the first American club, the Boston Bruins, was added in 1924. (1894) Nicholas II, the last tsar of Russia, married Alexandra, a German princess and great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria. (1883) Sojourner Truth, the African-American evangelist and reformer who applied her religious fervor to the abolitionist and women’s rights movements, died.
Make it a great day!
