Oh, wowwww! So THAT's how she got that windfall - and the hair that's so sticky Mitch can't get his fingers through it!!

Very interesting turn of events, indeed!! Now I am caught up and looking very much forward to how it unfolds from here! Another terrific chapter! xoxo

This is a great chapter in this book. I just read the chapter after it a little while ago. It seems like Miranda is in a sticky situation (ha, ha). Keep the story coming.

Well done.

Cecilia

I feel the caramel spray hitting Miranda like a sprinkler on steroids. Your descriptions of the tacky floor and the horrific sounds your shoes make just brought me into the story. I like the use of her thoughts as she admonishes herself for saying what else can go wrong. Of course, the reader knows things are going to get worse. A fun story to read. gayla

Well, it's not everyday that someone turns up to give you $250000 as a lump dum, for services rendered, whether you deserve it or not. After having what could be described as a pig of a day, Colleen Wheeler turns up for the scoop, and what does Miranda do? You guessed it, toilet bound, beautifully written, blessings Roy

May be the shock to her was because she hardly gets nice things happening to her .But she deserves that .I am afraid this wont lead her to any trap it is a genuine gift?

    I think she will be okay as far as it being a trap. The Toblerones are just appreciative. Its the ones that crawl out of the cracks after they find out you have money. They will be the problem. Gretchen

Hello Gretchen,
I'm afraid I could hardly grasp the importance of the moment with the check. Your description of the Dr. Pepper coating my body was so complete that I wouldn't be able to do anything but go get a shower and some clean dry clothes. I never even eat an orange unless I'm somewhere that I can wash the juice off my hands. I can't tolerate sticky. You are a master story teller gal. Well done.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

    Thank you so much. I hate sticky too. I will obsess over something sticky until I can get it cleaned off. We all have our kryptonite. Lol. thanks again. Gretchen

You gotta love Miranda. Such a study in contrasts. She can be so wise ("He was that. But did you notice when I said you were married, it was time to hit the road. How many times do I have to tell you sometimes friendly isn't really friendly? Sometimes its an old creep on the road trying to hit on a pretty girl."), yet she does dumb things and creates most of her own problems, like trying to hold onto too many Dr. Pepper bottles and dropping one to drench herself.

And now she gets a bit of good fortune to come her way, and she doesn't know how to handle it. I guess she's too used to bad things happening that she's floored when something good happens.

Very enjoyable chapter, Gretchen.

Well, that was quite the surprise! Of course, Colleen would choose the worst possible time to bring the Toblerones to meet her and give her that huge check. I hope Miranda has some spare clothes and shoes on hand. Knowing her, she will be able to fix that situation. I think she should have Colleen wait outside while she meets with the Toblerones privately. Publicity would be a problem for Miranda as Dougie will probably become suddenly more interested in her.

    Thank you so much. Yes, the timing of the nest egg was unfortunate but it was typical for Miranda. Gretchen

Is Miranda going to accept the check? I hope she does.

That Calvin Harvey guy sounds like a creep, good thing Miranda was there to help.

I enjoyed your new chapter. Well done.

LOL! I don't think that was the reply Colleen expected! Poor Miranda, she has just been doused with two litres of Dr Pepper, and looks and feels a mess. What with no sleep, she is definitely not receptive to anything. But OMG if someone came to see me with a cheque for that amount, my smile would be brighter than the sun! Loved this chapter, Gretchen, it had lots of fun parts in it, not that Miranda would agree, and a few surprises. Very well done, my friend. :)) Sandra xxx
