  1. When I spoke with her last on Wed. evening she was okay. I'll call again this evening to touch base. Hopefully by then the worst will be over.
  2. Going to bed at 7 doesn't mean you're asleep at 7.
  3. People move here then complain about the smell. Yeah, okay, manure stinks, didn't you notice that when you visited before you bought the house?
  4. Ham loaf, baked sweet potato and baked corn. Basically reheat and eat stuff. My head aches.
  5. That'll just fan the flames ... and it seems a bit ridiculous.
  6. Mmmm, lovely eyes and lips and hair and scruff and ... aw shucks he's just plain lovely. And not a stitch of plaid in sight ...
  7. You stole it off the Stud Registry website.
  8. Plaid, he's wearin' plaid, that makes him mi ... 😯 ... my bro. Val! That was a mean trick 😟
  9. Val does have some scruples when it comes to her herd. No siblings allowed.
  10. So far all is well. The zone immediately around here began mandatory evacuation at noon yesterday. That zone is directly along the ocean and the area bordering the Waccamaw River.

    And we're off ... I'm gonna take a chance and assume Chipper makes it onto the show since we've been privy to his friends gathering in front of their tv to watch ... but as always it's the journey you take us on that we look forward to.

    Prologue

    And life goes on ... I've been looking forward to this and the prologue bodes well. Though it's no surprise that you have another great story ready to share.
  14. A friend helped her check whether she could change her airline ticket to fly north now rather than on the 20th. There are no seats available. If she needs to evacuate she has been invited to join her neighbors at their daughter's home in Greenville. That's the same place she went last year when they evacuated because of Florence and would put her well away from the coast. For now they are waiting to get a better idea of the storm track. I'll talk with her again tomorrow evening. Charleston which is 82 miles further south has begun evacuating. The major highways will be all lanes one way outbound beginning tomorrow in order to ease the traffic out of the city. The schools along the coast are ordered to remain closed until after the storm.
  15. I'm about to call her.
  16. He looks a little unhappy. Do you think Val fed him stale kibble?
  17. G'day y'all. The day has dawned cool and overcast. No rain in the forecast for today but my head is achey and there is a shift in the weather. I'm growing concerned about Dorian. The forecast change in direction puts Mum in the threat zone. Prayers and best wishes please. Blessed be y'all.
  18. Thanks Texy.
  19. No, not yet ... that news causes me to fret.
  20. And just where was that son of yours ... you couldn't wait until he was available to help 'cause the light had to be installed witin a 72hr time limit or you needed to return it ... AARRRGGG I'm not.

    Chapter 9

    Mea Culpa. I often remind people to stop applying the mores of modern society to historical events. Modern sensibilities differ markedly from the way things were once viewed.

    Making Ready

    Picking the flower was touching. So too was Stravor washing Keter's back. Having purchased him many would view the boy as nothing more than a possession. My question is, did Stravor buy Keter to have easily at hand or to protect him from other Seachers. Too often people skip over the mundane things such as buying the pony baskets and how they are weatherproofed or sending Keter to buy sweets and which he chose. The differing viewpoints concerning Shade are true to character. For one he is simply useful to the other he's a new friend. I think Shade is going to br stubbornly loyal to Keter. Well conceived chapter. I like how this is progressing.
  23. See. You should have stated that sooner. It sounded like you were just planning to mooch at his table.
  24. Excellent chapter.
  25. So if you've got that why are you stealing Albert's dinner?
