Do we get to meet Sammy the Saw? Or am I going out on a limb?

So succinct and to the point…thank you.. So, lift your eyes to the ones who stay — the loyal, the steady beside you. For destiny is a narrow path, and only the true will stay beside you

My thoughts exactly….

But of course….an astounding decision…..

Ya think?

Ya think?

Somehow, I messed up in my response @CincyKris When words such as the following are spoken, it gives one pause...Self-centered and entirely ignorant of what it takes to have a relationship... Don't forget, Oliver found a mistake/issue that exculpated Julien, one that teams of attorneys failed to notice. Why, such an open-and-shut case has gone beyond this; only the author knows or does not remember...Let's not forget, the whole issue should have only lasted 2-3 days...why all of a sudden has it become even more complicated considering the appeal was filed after the frigging deadline to appeal.... Lastly, right or wrong, any partner of mine who spoke to me in such a manner, and continued to be petulant and pout would have seen the bottom of my boot with a final message...Hope you have a nice life as the only resident on that private island... “I came back because I want to be here. Not because you earned it. Not because the anger stopped. I want to be here, in this apartment, with you, even though you made it harder. You don’t get to treat that as forgiveness. It isn’t. It is presence. That is all.” Why does this ring false???? I want to be here, in this apartment, with you, even though you made it harder? That is all.” Where is the effort, despite the anger, to take a step back? In subsequent chapters, it's nonexistent... Where is the willingness and/or the ability to talk things through? Now, I will be the first to admit, I am most likely acting like Julien, simply because we haven't seen the inside of his head, or his thoughts in word and deed other than what we have seen... But from this side of the keyboard, as Ricky Ricardo once said to Lucy, 'You got some spalin to do."

I start a story knowing just where it is going to go and son-of-a-gun...they tell me something different...

When I truly think back upon it, they truly were days of innocence

Spent the better part of 40 years earning a living in Boston, and when I had a chance to retire I took it and had to move back to where there are as many farm animals as humans!

I sense another shoe to drop soon….

I nearly called FanKings to put a Grant on Seabiscuit…or DraftDule loved the following… For the first time since he'd been injured, I stopped pretending that what I missed was my linemate. I wanted Jackson

Very enjoyable and thank you for this!

Thanks for taking the time to comment…it is appreciated! As to the ADHD…I got better 🤭

You and me both brother!

Ain’t telling…🤭

Thanks, there were times I couldn’t wait for the bright lights of away, and as a retired old fart, I am back living in my small town…

Both actually happened…Mom was so pissed at the invented use of Monopoly money and Father Dwyer wasn’t very happy with me either..

But those don’t suck nearly as well…

So funny and sweet….sometimes the obvious ain’t… Oh, it's always there whether you perceive it or not,” Quilla said, answering my question before it came out of my lips. “Take your time. He'd never rush you into anything.”

Truly delightful and what a wide, believable varied cast of denizens!

I so enjoyed the other two so much and now I will have to go back to read them again!

Glad to see we on the other side are not alone 🤭

So well done…simply could not put it down…Karen is in full CYA mode… I believe the attempt by her to minimize warnings will come back to bite her in the ass as she try’s to shift the blame elsewhere.

So there isn’t a need for Julian to assume some responsibility for having an equal partnership… I understand where you are coming from, but fundamentally I cannot agree.
