  1. Past hour
  2. Next couple of months, I need to write some code. That would not make for good reading
  3. I haven't started reading the chapter yet but OMG what you have been going through would rival most peoples ordeals here's wishing that you will get out on the other side happy🤞
  4. Strange, disorienting things are happening. The dog protects M. M keeps having seizures. Connor visited the scary house again and lost consciousness in an odd , dark room. He waked up outside hours later and M found him.They begin to run when a large white ball appears to seek them out. Connor once again passes out and M says he carried Connor to their trailer. He does not believe him but lets it pass. More odd matters--M denies seeing the large white ball. Connor sees M talking to someone but he says he was talking to himself. Connor remembers most of what has tormented him and he spends time over the toilet throwing up. Times passes and Connor finally goes to work. When he comes home he takes a shower and intends to show M there to much more to sex/romance than kissing. His sex dive has become unusually high and he is motivated to sexually play with M. I wonder if both will be pleasantly surprised?

    Chapter 11

    I'm tempted to think that phone call from Alec is about finding out about his mother but I recall his phone call to River in IHTT being different so to me this sounds unrelated to that. About River not giving himself enough personal time he seems to have a full plate of various things going on every day
  6. A small time Dublin thief (we’re never told his name) suddenly finds himself out of his depth. Used to stealing cash and jewels, which he can easily fence and sell on, he now finds that the paintings he stole, from a country house, are a Rembrandt, a Gainborough and two Guardis. How does he sell them, for a good profit, without alerting the police? And the police are becoming more and more interested in him because his alcoholic mother has been loose-lipped around her new friend. This story was originally included in Toibin’s collection Mothers and Sons. In June, 2006, Picador published it as part of their Picador Shots, pocket-sized books containing one story. The premise of this story is interesting, a criminal falls into a personal existential angst because he has stolen paintings he can’t easily sell, and is facing trusting people he doesn’t know. Unfortunately, the excursion of this story just fades away. Toibin spends a lot of time on the thief’s past. At first this is interesting, but when so much space is given over to it, it means we get so little on thief’s present day life. Why is his falling apart? We have little discussion of that, so little time is given to thief’s current relationship with his mother and we’re not even told thief’s wife’s name. What is most disappointing, is the ending. This story doesn’t end as much as it just fades out with an unexpected event, running opposite to the story’s narrative. It felt as Toibin hit his word limit and had to hastily bring this story to an end. The ending was so disappointing that it left a sour taste in my mouth. I wanted to like this story but was disappointed by its poor ending and the way Toibin did not explore his interesting premise. Maybe other stories in Mothers and Sons are better, but I hope this one wasn’t the best. Find it here on Amazon
  7. @akascrubber @chris191070 I love the assessments. I was hoping to make Maddox even more creepy and devious than before. As well as giving some insight into his motivation without giving away too much. Hehe
  8. Today
  9. Maddox is out to cause problems for our boys. Plenty of family love and tickles, when Lev, Greg and Brandon got together.
  10. Lev, Greg and Brandon met and got along wonderfully. It turns out Lev is well able to handle himself phyically plus he is armed and had a gun and crossbow. He is surprising and will not seem so capable to others. They all will need protection. Unknown to them, they have an enemy who wants to torture. fuck and kill them. Maddox, now out of prison, wants revenge on Jaycen and Troy and those they love. Maddox has a new face thanks to plastic surgery and is hired on as a ranch hand to be close to his targets. This is a scary situation. I hope he underestimates Lev and is handled well by him

    Chapter 1

    If I recall right I remember you commenting on @Jdonley75 series Chronicles From The Orchard. After what you just revealed those stories must have really gotten to you
  16. Well written and sadly very true. Police are often sent to 'move these people along' but to where? The shelters that are closed or that, if open, are often more dangerous and unwelcoming than the street itself. It was never a duty I wanted to do. Perhaps we should look at what other charities are out there to support. We are lucky enough to be able to, tim. See what you can find out.
  17. Lots of information in this chapter. Good things ahead for Oscar.
