Wow, it seems like it has been forever... and it has. I do apologize for my absence--if tomatoes are to be thrown, please cut them up first so that I can use them in my salad. Thanks!
I'm glad to be back in the writing saddle and really am committed to finishing this tale. I do appreciate those of you that are still on board. We'll get there yet!
So, about chapter 10... what'd you think?
