But not for long! If only Anne had stayed for three day instead of nine...
Comment from Gloria ....
Shari, love the title. It causes quite the image just all by itself.
Oh boy, don't you just love it when a sibling betrays a confidence. I think it happens all too often, but geez, thanks Sis. Hubby shoulda throttled her, but would it have helped? Likely not.
Great story telling here.

Thanks for catching this chapter. I just posted the next one. I wouldn't let Frank say anything. He still holds that grudge! You'll see why.
Comment from Muffins
Emotions run higher than a flu induced fever!! You where blind sided by 2 woman with selfish agendas. The reader is not bullied or forced to take your side. You simply present the facts in a straight forward manner then leave the reader to make their mind on how to feel about it. When a writer takes that route, it shows they have respect for their readers.

What a great review, Muffins. I'm glad it reads this way. I'm trying to give everyone a fair deal including myself in the next chapter which will be titled Blind-Sided. Big surprise in store.
Comment from Walu Feral
G'day Shari, what a spitful mean thing to do! I can't believe what I just read mate. This is another great chapter but I have to say that my heart was in my mouth and I just wanted to scream. Well done my friend, cheers Fez

Comment from Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens
Hu Shari,
I read the previous chapters as well. Nicole just couldn't seem to get settled.. I am sorry for that. And Jeff, I don't want to judge, but he is probably right about you thinking he is a loser... that thought crossed my mind as well.
And your Aunt Anne,,, how unkind of her to repeat anything you would have said to her. I am sorry your mother was hurt, and you as well...
I bet Frank was upset when he heard this one...
(Also, Barb at MISU, wow, I wonder how that went? It is a great university, we Missourians are proud of it)
Well done,
Carolyn

Seventeen years later, and hubby still can't let it go. Barb's teaching career flourished at MISU. Both colleagues and students loved and respected her.
Comment from w.j.debi
It is amazing how something said in what you think is confidence can be turned against you so quickly. Your half-sister and aunt really did a number hatching this plan up. Take just enough truth and twist it and that can really get things going; add a little heat and watch things boil over.
The honesty and hurt come through in this one.

Thanks, debbi, for the insightful review. Good to hear what you felt.
Comment from Louise Michelle
Well, Shari, it could very well be that Ann suffered from abandonment issues. Oh, wow, she became ordained - that is very surprising. However, it makes her actions that much more despicable. Another good chapter. Hugs, Lou

That's why I felt the information was important especially in light of future behavior.

Comment from joann r romei
you are probably right about ann, she did get neglected as a kid, why didnt she suggest sharing the care with mom, 6 months with each of you, unfortunately families fight.

That's mentioned earlier in the book. She was willing, but Mom didn't want to stay with anyone but me. We understood each other in a spiritual way beyond organized religion.
