  1. A wonderful story of love lost and love found. We walk with Lonnie as he picks his way over the stony, uneven path of grief and loss. It's a journey always taken alone, no matter how many people are beside you. I recommend this story.

    Chapter 6

    A beautiful story of love lost and found. It was touching and I liked Leo's character. I am torn as to whether Leo is a true ghost or is part of Lonnie's grief. That's fine, I don't need to know, but it works. Thanks for this one, tim. Excellent.
  3. I agree, a wonderful story. I'd never heard of Kodama, but I've seen pictures of these forests in Japan and I can understand why there are such legends. Thanks, tim.

    Chapter 5

    I realize I'm lucky to have found the man I did. Marriage is work. tim and I have had rough times and some that could have easily broken us up, but we chose to fix it. I know not everyone wants to do this and I know life can mess up connections. I only speak for myself.

    Chapter 5

    Loved this chapter. So much is going on. My marriage vows are important to me still, to this day. I'm glad these two are going to give life together an honest try. Excellent work, tim.
  6. It's a wonderful story. Touching and unique.

    Chapter 4

    This is a surprise both to me and Lonnie. What is Ty up to? I can sort of guess but poor Lonnie. Life is certainly a roller coaster for him at the moment.

    Chapter 2

    And all these years I thought I was your fav Mike. That said, another good chapter and a lot of excellent and thought provoking comments too. I look forward to seeing what happens next to Lonnie and Keve and Leo.
  9. I'm glad to read this. You're a talented writer, I'm glad you're starting to see that. Your stories are unique and honest. you should be proud of your accomplishments.
  10. This is very nice, especially with the pineapple-orange zest, skyr topping. It's rather brownie like in texture but very tasty. I am here to give a shameless plug to tim's latest story and hope you'll give it a read.
  11. You middle-aged old dog ... well done. It was rather ... warming. I enjoyed it.

    Chapter 1

    A wonderful first chapter. The lines that leapt out: Maisie’s voice followed, softly. “That’s grief in motion, right there.” Trying to outrun grief doesn't help you get over things, you're better to turn and face it. I look forward to the next chapter.
  13. The card is still legible and he's happy. The house is coated with pieces that are drying, partly finished. Bags and boxes filled with yarn, blanket bags. I like the hat he made me. I think he should have sale in the summer.
  14. Please be careful. I'm completely serious here. Things on the internet do not disappear, and it is possible to find people, if someone wants to badly enough.
  15. Yes, a ball or two of yarn I can deal with, on the hoof is a different story. Though this example is rather handsome.
  16. Also interesting, I don't recommend following through with this kind of plan.

    Remember, you're more than a number on a scale. I'd recommend shoving that under the bed, and continue to take your measurements. Does your gym offer body fat measurements? If so, and if you feel you can handle that mentally (lots of people struggle with it) maybe have them measure it for you and then again in 6 months. Whatever you choose, all that you're doing is good. Keep it up.

  19. @Wayne Gray I think you know.

    Oh, tim. You speak for us both in this. Dan was a marvelous person, we're lucky to have had the years we did with him. I'm sorry our time was cut short. Thank you for this. It is beautiful. xoxo
