What is wrong with me? I know there are experts who say you shouldn’t use your cell phone in bed before you go to sleep, but I bet ten bucks the experts do it as well, so I am not even going to stress about it. Here is my problem. Every night I like to watch a few YouTube videos before I go to sleep to help me relax. I usually start out with a few animal rescue videos to warm the heart, then I move on to a few funny old Saturday Night Live skits with Will Ferrell. These are always winners. I usually end with something guaranteed to make me smile or laugh. Last night was a video with actress Catherine O’Hara singing live “Sally’s Song” from the movie “Nightmare Before Christmas”. Anything with Catherine O’Hara is going to put a smile on your face for sure. But even this guaranteed smile could not stop my brain from doing what it does EVERY time I turn off the phone to go to sleep. My brain has a flash of horror. I hate my imagination sometimes. the lights go out, and I imagine a hand grabbing my foot, or I see an eerie shadow is standing in the corner of the room. How about the demon that runs across the room and jumps into my face. Ew! A snake falls from the ceiling! Okay, all of these are not my own imagination, but from horror movie previews I saw on TV, but the snake thing I saw in real life. That was horrible. One time I had just pulled up to my baby bassets school to pick them up, and I saw two hawks flying just above the playground, fighting over a snake. If either of them dropped that snake, and it landed on a kid…OHH BOY! That’s just not something you get over. Yikes! Anyway… Happy Friday the 13th! Bring an umbrella

The Vanishing Woman (The Underground Railroad Book 1)
by Doug Peterson
(19 Reviews)
Genre: Historical Fiction | Literature & Fiction | African American
FREE for a limited time
Ellen Craft escaped from slavery in 1848 by posing as a white man, while her husband William pretended to be her slave. They took trains and steamboats north, escaping in plain view. When other passengers looked at her, they saw only an ailing planter from Georgia. Ellen Craft had vanished.
Ellen’s mother was a slave, but her father was her master, and she had skin as white as his. This enabled her to pose as a white man, in one of the boldest escapes in American history. The Vanishing Woman is based on a true story — an escape driven by the desire for freedom and family. William and Ellen decided they would not have children until they were free.
Their incredible story riveted a nation, and the couple put the Fugitive Slave Law to its first major test, bringing attention to their plight all of the way to the White House. The ultimate irony: This vanishing woman became one of the most visible symbols of freedom in nineteenth-century America.
They ran 1,000 miles to freedom and changed the country forever.
