Chauncey, the friendly and free-spirited feline that showed up on our porch a little over a year ago, loves exploring his self-proclaimed territory. My husband put an AirTag on his collar to track his whereabouts, and Chauncey does trot home when he's called. He's just not a homebody kind of cat. When we're away on vacation, Aunt Debbie takes care of him. In this episode, I share some of his antics in Chauncey's "own" words. Hope you enjoy hearing about them, and please check the chapter mar...

Miss Lulu Bett by Zona Gale Loyal Books Lulu Bett is a spinster, living at the turn of the 20th century essentially as a servant with her sister Ina and brother-in-law Dwight. She is, uncomplainingly, "the family beast of burden," living in the background and tending to the family's needs. It therefore surprises everyone, Lulu included, when Dwight's visiting brother Ninian proposes to her, and she accepts. The surprise is even greater when Lulu returns home alone from their homeymoon trip, with the news that Ninian was already legally married before he married her. What follows brings Lulu into conflict with the self-satisfied Dwight, forcing her to choose how she defines herself, with unexpected results. This novel is the basis of the 1921 play for which Zona Gale became the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for drama. The original ending of the play, in which Lulu gains freedom by walking away from the security of the family, was considered so controversial that a new ending was written.

Does Code Schofield have anything to prove, and if so, to whom, and why?
