After Covid I don’t think there will ever be a time when I am not completely self conscious about sneezing or coughing in public. Every time I sneeze, I announce to anyone within earshot that allergies are the worst. Coughs are even worse. I will hold one in until my eyes pop out. If I can’t, I very loudly and clearly announce I inhaled my spit. I know. Gross. Better than people thinking you are a walking virus. I always picture someone screaming 2319!!! 2319!!!!!! Then the hazmat team from Monsters Inc, the CDA, coming down from the ceiling and grabbing me, shaving my head and then putting the cone of shame around my neck. I am so happy my brain goes to the cartoon and not something serious like the Dustin Hoffman movie Outbreak. That came out in 1995 and it still freaks me out.

Charleston Green: A Novel (Tipsy Collins Series Book 1)
by Stephanie Alexander
Genre: United States
FREE for a limited time
If Tipsy Collins learned one thing from her divorce, it’s that everyone in Charleston is a little crazy — even if they’re already dead.
Tipsy, a gifted artist, cannot ignore her nutty friends or her vindictive ex-husband, but as a lifelong reluctant clairvoyant, she’s always avoided dead people. When Tipsy and her three children move into the house on Bennett Street, she realizes some ghosts won’t be ignored.
Till death do us part didn’t pan out for Jane and Henry Mott, who’ve haunted the house for nearly a century. Tipsy’s marriage was downright felicitous when compared to Jane and Henry’s ill-fated union. Jane believes Henry killed her and then himself, and Henry vehemently denies both accusations. Unfortunately, neither phantom remembers that afternoon in 1923. Tipsy doesn’t know whether to side with Jane, who seems to be hiding something under her southern belle charm, or Henry, a mercurial creative genius. Jane and Henry draw Tipsy into their conundrum, and she uncovers secrets long concealed under layers of good manners, broken promises and soupy Lowcountry air. Living with ghosts, however, takes a toll on her health, and possibly even her sanity. As she struggles to forge a new path for herself and her children, Tipsy has a chance to set Jane and Henry free, and release the ghosts of her own past.
