The giant candy-striped balloons lift off at first light and drift at the mercy of the wind for about an hour. This usually means that you pass right over Kapama Game Reserve and the skill of the balloon pilot is such that you can skim the top of the trees and spot the wild animals below. The hot air balloon landing can be bumpy, so hold on tight then celebrate with a glass of bubbly. This memorable experience is highly recommended.

1 dead after SUV collides with SEPTA train at crossing
LOWER MORELAND TWP, Pa. (WTXF) - One person has died after a collision involving an SUV and a SEPTA Regional Rail train in Lower Moreland Township.
It was a grim scene just before 9:30 a.m. Thursday morning along Red Lion near Philmont Avenue in Lower Moreland Township.
Two women on their way to work coming down a hill by the railroad crossing were unable to stop on the snow covered road and slammed into an oncoming SEPTA train.
"The driver of the vehicle was able to exit the vehicle before the crash. The passenger remained in the vehicle and was later found outside along the tracks," Lower Moreland Police Chief Peter Hasson said.
The police chief says the driver realized she was in trouble and told the passenger they had to get out. The driver jumped for her life. Sadly, her co-worker couldn't get out in time.
SEPTA says it hit between the third and fourth train cars on its West Trenton line. The train operator stopped at the next station after realizing what happened. The some 50 passengers were taken off the train and shuttled to their destinations.
The West Trenton line was back up and running around 1:30 p.m. Thursday afternoon after being suspended for some four hours. The driver of the SUV was treated and released from the hospital.
"She answered questions and was helpful with the investigation–very helpful," Chief Hasson said.
The identities of the two women have not been released at this time.

New disease scare in Essex
By FWi staff
ESSEX farms are being tested for foot-and-mouth more than a fortnight after the last confirmed case in the county, reports The Daily Telegraph.
Twenty farms are being scrutinised following the cull four days ago of stock at Great Wigborough, near Colchester after tests revealed disease antibodies.
But farmers have complained that the Ministry of Agriculture is concealing the extent of the epidemic by only classifying the case as a dangerous contact.
Disease control restrictions have been lifted in some parts of Essex in recent days, including the abattoir where foot-and-mouth was first detected in February.
In another development, trading standards officers are concerned that an expected ban on feeding swill to pigs will not be wide-ranging enough.
Only 82,000 pigs in Britain are fed on swill but it is thought to be the source of the foot-and mouth outbreak.
Most farming organisations agreed with proposals from Agriculture Minister Nick Browns for a ban catering waste being used in swill.
But North Yorkshire trading standards officer Graham Venn told the BBC Radio 4 Farming Today programme that bakery waste may not be included.
He fears that meat products such as pies and sausage rolls could inadvertently become mixed with bakery waste such as flour confectionery at manufacturers.
Mr Venn said waste from any manufacturing base which also produces meat products should not be used for animal feed.
Meanwhile, the Daily Express reports that Cumbrian foot-and-mouth pyres create satellite photographs hotspots to match Sicilys Mount Etna volcano.

Loyola University Maryland's new $62M sports complex a revenue boost
Loyola University Maryland's new $62 million sports complex is expected to grow sponsorship revenue in the school's athletics program by as much as 75 percent.
The centerpiece of the 71-acre Ridley Athletic Complex, on Cold Spring Lane in North Baltimore, is a 6,000-seat stadium for the school's lacrosse and soccer programs. The venue boasts a 15-by-30 Daktronics scoreboard featuring a video screen, allowing the university to sell custom sponsorships for the first time.
Loyola's soccer and lacrosse teams currently play at Diane Geppi-Aikens Field, which only allowed the school to sell signage along the sidelines for $1,000. Dave Gerrity, who heads business affairs for Loyola's athletic program, said the school is preparing new deals for businesses to spend $25,000 to $30,000. Those deals would encompass the soccer, lacrosse and basketball teams.
The new stadium can also accommodate more than double the fans that Diane Geppi-Aikens Field holds. The stadium also houses three corporate suites.
Gerrity declined to disclose current sponsorship revenue figures but said those numbers could grow dramatically, an estimate of 50 percent to 75 percent, with the new stadium.
"It's kind of a new era for their sports program, and that gets people excited," said John Moag, a sports banker with Moag & Co. in Baltimore and former chairman of the Maryland Stadium Authority. "Even for a college it means a lot. That's new revenue; that scoreboard alone really helps out a lot."
The school is waiting for Jim Paquette to take over as athletic director April 1 before preparing the exact scope of marketing packages, Gerrity said. Paquette comes to Loyola after working in the business department of Boston College's athletic program.
The Ridley complex, on the site of a former city landfill, was financed through fundraising and a bond from the Maryland Health and Higher Educational Facilities Authority.
Loyola's men's soccer program will christen the stadium, a little more than a mile from Loyola's main campus, March 10 with an exhibition versus Crystal Palace Baltimore. The men's lacrosse program will host Duke at the complex March 13.
The facility will help enhance the image of the 3,600-student school and boost recruitment efforts, said Joseph Boylan, who is retiring after 19 years as Loyola's athletic director.
"This was a dream of Father Ridley's," Boylan said of Loyola's late president, the Rev. Harold Ridley, for whom the complex is named. "For us to compete at the national level with our lacrosse and soccer program we needed something better."
Meanwhile, the site of Diane Geppi-Aikens Field eventually could be used to build a second academic quad, said the Rev. Brian F. Linnane, Loyola's president. The project could include a building for the school's science department and a new student center, he said. Linanne doesn't anticipate movement on the quad project for at least five years.

Professional sports, as opposed to amateur sports, are sports in which athletes receive payment for their performance. Professional athleticism has come to the fore through a combination of developments. Mass media and increased leisure have brought larger audiences, so that sports organizations or teams can command large incomes. As a result, more sportspeople can afford to make athleticism their primary career, devoting the training time necessary to increase skills, physical condition, and experience to modern levels of achievement. This proficiency has also helped boost the popularity of sports.
Most sports played professionally also have amateur players far outnumbering the professionals. Professional athleticism is seen by some as a contradiction of the central ethos of sport, competition performed for its own sake and pure enjoyment, rather than as a means of earning a living. Consequently, many organisations and commentators have resisted the growth of professional athleticism, saying that it was so incredible that it has impeded the development of sport. For example, rugby union was for many years a part-time sport engaged in by amateurs, and English cricket has allegedly suffered in quality because of a "non-professional" approach. An important reason why professional sports has been resisted in history was that organisations for professional sports usually did not submit to the international sports federations, and could have their own rules. For example, the National Basketball Association was formerly not a member of the FIBA.
Bass Pro Shops (Outdoor World) is a privately held retailer of hunting, fishing, camping and related outdoor recreation merchandise, known for stocking a wide selection of gear.
The majority owner, John Morris, began his career in sporting goods with a fishing section in the back of a Brown Derby liquor store owned by his father, located in Springfield MO on the road to Table Rock Lake and Branson, Missouri. That small fishing department sold homemade bait and worms, proving popular enough that Bass Pro Shops was incorporated in 1971. These homemade baits were so popular that many people wanted the opportunity to buy these when they had returned home. Thus began the Bass Pro Shops catalog, first mailed in 1974. Soon, it became the world's largest mail order sporting goods store.
In 1975, to meet the burgeoning demand for Bass Pro Shops exclusive products, American Rod and Gun was established. Acting as a separate wholesaling entity ARG serves more than 7,000 independently owned retail stores worldwide. In 1977, Bass Pro Shops introduced the first fish-ready complete boat motor and trailer package with the Bass Tracker. In 1984, construction began on the Outdoor World Catalog Showroom in Springfield, Missouri. Big Cedar Lodge opened in 1988 on Table Rock Lake.
Dude Perfect is a sports entertainment group who got their start on YouTube. Most known for their trick shots, they are also involved in comedy with their "Stereotypes" series, in which they poke fun at common stereotypes, mostly in the sports world. The group consists of the twins Coby and Cory Cotton, Garrett Hilbert, Cody Jones, and Tyler Toney who are all former high school basketball players and college roommates at Texas A&M University.
The group commented that their shots typically relied more on American football skills than basketball.
The group was betting on sandwiches via basketball shots in their backyard, which were eventually recorded on camera, and a video of trick shots at Toney's ranch was eventually released on YouTube. Within a week, the video received 100,000 views. When asked about the name, Toney stated,
Afterwards, a trick shot video from the Christian summer camp Sky Ranch was released, which, as of June 2015, has over 13.9 million views. For every 100,000 views the video received, Dude Perfect pledged to sponsor a child from Compassion International. Afterwards, ESPN's E:60 contacted the group for a segment, and on the third floor of Texas A&M's Kyle Field, Toney converted a shot, which traveled 3.9 seconds, which was a world record at the time. The shot prompted television appearances on ESPN's First Take, Pardon the Interruption, Around the Horn and SportsNation. Eventually, Dude Perfect introduced the Panda mascot, who "developed a cult following at A&M basketball games" when taunting players of the opposing team.
Bass or Basses may refer to:
Dude is an American English slang term for an individual. It typically applies to males, although the word can encompass any gender.
Dude is an old term, recognized by multiple generations although potentially with slightly different meanings. From the 1870s to the 1960s, dude primarily meant a person who dressed in an extremely fashionable manner (a dandy) or a citified person who was visiting a rural location but stuck out (a city slicker). In the 1960s, dude evolved to mean any male person, a meaning that slipped into mainstream American slang in the 1970s. Current slang retains at least some use of all three of these common meanings.
The word may have derived from the Scottish term for clothes, duddies. The term "dude" was first used in print in 1876, in Putnam's Magazine, to mock how a woman was dressed (as a "dud"/dude). The use of the word "dudde" for clothing in English goes as far back 1567.
In the popular press of the 1880s and 1890s, "dude" was a new word for "dandy" – an extremely well-dressed male, a man who paid particular importance to how he appeared. The café society and Bright Young Things of the late 1800s and early 1900s were populated with dudes. Young men of leisure vied to show off their wardrobes. The best known of this type is probably Evander Berry Wall, who was dubbed "King of the Dudes" in 1880s New York and maintained a reputation for sartorial splendor all his life. This version of the word is still in occasional use in American slang, as in the phrase "all duded up" for getting dressed in fancy clothes.

The Memphis Pyramid, initially known as the Great American Pyramid, formerly referred to as the Pyramid Arena and locally referred to as The Pyramid, was originally built as a 20,142-seat arena located in downtown Memphis at the banks of the Mississippi River. The facility was built in 1991 and was originally owned and operated jointly by the city of Memphis and Shelby County; Shelby County sold its share to Memphis in April 2009.[6] Its structure plays on the city's namesake in Egypt, known for its ancient pyramids. It is 321 feet (98m, about 32 stories) tall and has base sides of 591 ft; it is by some measures the tenth tallest pyramid in the world. The "Great American Pyramid" was conceived originally by Mark C. Hartz, a Memphis artist in about 1954. The project originally included thre...

In the last couple of weeks we came across two corruption convictions for two senior civil servants. The first one was a Syariah court judge in Perak who solicited money to manipulate justice and he was sentenced to 19 years and on concurrence, will serve only 10 years in jail pending appeal and the second one was an ex-Deputy Director General of Immigration Department who abused his position by approving the extension passes of Chinese national in return for money. A group of charges were preferred against him and he was found guilty on all counts. He was sentenced to 56 years jail but concurrently he would only serve six years.
Now I am no lawyer and my legal knowledge is almost nil. What I don't understand is why the former was jailed for 10 years and the latter only six years? The gravity of the charges, to me, is more severe in the latter as it involves the security of the country. Though I must admit the Syariah Judge is a position of law interpretation and the meting out of justice and so the position should be beyond reproach.Corruption among judges would eventually result in the loss of trust in our legal system and justice being trampled. There is no recourse for the poor, the weak and the powerless. As a judge he should mete out justice according to the law of the land with impartiality. Failing which the Society will be be doomed. Could this reasoning lead to the difference in sentencing?
As for Yusof Abu Bakar, the convicted ex- Deputy Director General of Immigration, he should consider himself lucky to just get six years for his dastardly actions. If you look at him, he seemed a decent man who smiled and at ease with himself. Actually I have interacted with this man and found him to be very friendly and approachable. Always nice and pleasant so it came as a shocking disappointment when I read about his corruption charges. He traded his reputation and freedom for money and had to pay dearly for it. I wish I had mentioned to him in our conversation that I despise corruption in civil service and that it didn't pay and that his innocent family would suffer if he were found out and charged and then convicted. In his line of duty, corruption is a great risk and for law breakers with money, the amount given to law-enforcers is of no consideration.
And to all of us, law abiding and security-conscious people, we abhor his corrupt practices and he deserves to be punished for his grave violations. I am ashamed of him.
Yet his boss, the ex-Director General of Immigration with more or less similar charges was eventually acquitted, now how come that be? Looks like Wahid (the boss) had a better lawyer or poor prosecution. The Prosecution should do a post-mortem and learn from their mistakes and ensure the next case will be successfully prosecuted. And hopefully the Judges would see the wood for the trees.
Anyway, I am having some feel good factor about this war on corruption at the moment in Malaysia. For the first time we have this level of officers being convicted and it looks good for PM Najib's administration. I am sure we are all waiting for alleged corrupt politicians, the like of Khir Toyo and Ling Liong Sik to be brought to justice so that the government would appear sincere and fair in its efforts to fight corruption in this country.

I knew that FAAN and FAI were merging, but I didn't realize a new name was in order. It looks like it'll be FARE, which doesn't sound any better or worse to me than the old names.
The website will be www.foodallergy.org, which is FAAN's current address. The name change won't take place until early next year, so you can expect to see FAAN/FAI-branded stuff floating around for a bit. My family has had a FAAN membership for awhile, and it has good info and I enjoyed the newsletter, but I also really like KFA. The KFA website has seemed more active to me – it has a vibrant community and there is new information there all the time (though KFA, too, could probably benefit from a makeover in my opinion) so I'll be interested to see if merging gives FAAN/FAI an energy boost or if it cedes the Internet audience to KFA.

Does art have boundaries?
That's the question TNRD directors asked themselves Thursday (Dec. 10, 2015) when the Kamloops Arts Council asked for a $5,000 donation towards its upcoming Art Exposed Open Exhibition.
The issue was whether other parts of the region should support a Kamloops arts organization and an event within the city.
The arts council's executive director Kathy Sinclair told the board the event will feature artists from all around the region. It's set for March 11-19 in the Old Courthouse and is open to all residents of the TNRD to submit artwork in any medium.
Last year's show featured more than 189 pieces by 90 regional artists; it's expected at least that many will be part of this year's show.
This region, including Area P, has an impressive number of talented artists. Among them are Leslie Bolin of Heffley Lake, Debra Powell and Janice Jarvis of Pinantan and Judy Kalas of Whitecroft.
Among the many others are Petrina Gregson of Clearwater, Bill Fell of Sun Peaks, Maureen Smith of Barriere, Sharon Antoniak of Knutsford and Donna Vanderlip of Westwold.
The TNRD's grant, which was approved unanimously by the board, will account for almost a third of the total budget of $15,980, with private sector and provincial donations and grants, as well as registration fees and art sales making up the remainder.
I was one of several directors speaking in favour of the funding, and I like Director Sally Watson's suggestion that as the major funder, the TNRD should be recognized as the title sponsor, preferably within the name of the event.
Watson joked that this was the first time she, Director Arjun Singh, Director Peter Milobar and I had ever agreed on something.

Carter Finds Two Mates (MMF)
Pack Law 7
Siren-BookStrand, Inc.
[Siren Ménage Everlasting: Erotic Paranormal Ménage a Trois Romance, M/M/F, with M/M, werewolves, HEA]
Carter Friess wants a mate, but when Crag Reynolds, a wolf from the second largest pack in the world, walks through the door and he realizes the man is his mate, he isn't sure what to do. He'd always envisaged a woman when he imagined his mate but when he is close to Crag he can't resist him. Crag is a wonderful man and because they are both wolves and fated mates they fall in love from the start.
And then Tammy Adams walks into the Aztec Club bruised and battered after being hit by her stepfather, and Carter knows she is their mate too. But what none of them realize is that Tammy's life is in jeopardy.
Tammy accepts Crag and Carter as her mates, but just when their relationship is strengthening, danger comes to town. It's a race against time for Carter and Crag to get to Tammy before it's too late.

Crag helped her to her feet and then sniffed the air. "Smells like breakfast is ready, and I'm starving."
Tammy sniffed and then frowned at Crag when she couldn't smell anything. Carter smiled and then tapped his nose. "Our wolves have much better noses than a human does, baby. Most of the time we take our meals downstairs in the dining room with the rest of the pack, but if you're nervous about being in a room full of people, one of us can go down there and bring breakfast back here."
"I would like to meet more of your pack," Tammy answered.
"Angela is the best cook." Crag groaned. "She's a lovely woman, as is her daughter, Cindy. They take care of all of us, and since I don't even know how to turn on an oven, it's a good thing."
Carter snorted. "If a kettle didn't turn off automatically you'd probably burn water."
Crag grinned and cuffed Carter on the back of his head then pulled him in close until Tammy was sandwiched between them. "You're such a smart arse, mate. You know I wouldn't put up with any of your shit if we weren't mated?"
"Yes, you would," Carter replied and then drew back when Crag released him. "You love me."
"That I do," Crag riposted. "God knows why."
Carter helped Tammy to her feet. "Don't you just love the way he says arse. It just doesn't sound right."
Tammy giggled.
"The way you say it sounds like a donkey's rear end."
"Exactly." Carter chuckled and then pointed at Crag.
"Watch it, Carter. I may just have to play pin the tail on the donkey later tonight."
Carter groaned and Crag smiled then waggled his eyebrows. Tammy couldn't help but giggle.
"Promise?" Carter asked.
"You know it."
"Why do Americans call a G-string a thong?" Crag asked with a grin.
"Well, duh," Tammy said, and Carter was pleased to see her joining in their banter. "Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it goes between the cheeks of an ass."
"Like floss between teeth. We Aussies wear thongs on our feet." Crag barked out a laugh when Tammy stared at him with confusion.
Carter decided to clarify for her. "We call them flip-flops."
"Oh my God. That is so funny." Tammy giggled.
"You think that's funny. We call a pussy a fanny, and you guys use that word for an ass."
Tammy snickered and then covered her mouth with her hand. Carter felt his heart fill with love. Their mate was smart, stunning, and sassy, and he hoped to have many, many years with her and Crag.
"Tell me some more," Tammy demanded as he and Crag led her from their suite of rooms and down the stairs.
"We call what you think of as jelly, jam, and Jell-O we call jelly."
"I knew that one. You'll have to think up more words for us to compare."
"No worries, darlin'. When you want to be entertained, you just come to me." Crag smiled and thumped himself on the chest.
Tammy burst out laughing and was still smiling when they entered the massive dining room, which was separated from the kitchen by a large granite counter. The room was full of pack members, and everyone looked up and smiled when they entered. Carter introduced her to Angie, the cook and housekeeper, and her daughter, Cindy. When his prospective mate returned the women's greetings and saw that they were about to start bringing platters of food to the table, Tammy rushed over to help them. Carter stood back and smiled as he watched his helpful mate. He just hoped like hell that she agreed to become mate to him and Crag. He wouldn't feel complete until she was a part of him, too.
But what astounded him more was the way Crag had lightened up since Tammy had come into their lives. He'd never seen his mate be so playful before. Crag had always been so serious. Carter supposed being the highest-ranking Beta to the Reynolds Pack back in the state of New South Wales, Australia, would have been a huge load to carry. He'd had the responsibility of making sure all the security surrounding their land and pack house had been kept up to date and working at all times. Each and every day, Crag seemed to loosen up a little more, and Carter liked it.
Crag took his ranking in the Friess pack just as seriously, but he didn't have such a big load on his shoulders anymore. Even though Crag would be expected to protect the pack if they were threatened, his mate's burden was much lighter.
"She's really special, isn't she?" Crag asked.
"Yeah," Carter sighed. "I was so scared I'd fucked things up, but I'm also glad my faux pas got her to open up with us. As she was telling us about the asshole Oliver, my wolf was pushing at me to go find him and rip his fucking throat out."
"Mine, too, mate. If I ever come across that fucker, I will definitely punch his lights out."
"Carter, Crag." Jonah's voice came through to them on the common pack link, interrupting their private conversation. "Have you told Tammy about what we are yet?"
"Yes, we have, Alpha,"Crag answered.
"How did she take it? Do you want Michelle or any of the other women to talk to her and help ease her mind?"
"Our mate is a lot stronger than she looks, Alpha." Carter met Jonah's eyes and smiled. "We expected her to think we were crazy or go running from us with fear, but she was excited about learning that some creatures from mythology are actually real."
"That's good. You mate is more accepting than mine was."
"Hey, watch it." Michelle slapped Jonah on the shoulder and then smiled when he took her hand in his, brought it to his mouth, and kissed the back of it.
"Come here, baby," Crag ordered, and Carter stepped closer.
He closed his eyes when Crag began to wash him. He loved the way his mate's rough hands felt caressing him all over. Crag wasn't shy about touching him anywhere. He soaped up his ass, as well as his cock and balls. When he had washed every inch of him from the tip of his toes to the top of his head, Carter stepped under the spray and rinsed off.
He took the soap from the shelf and lathered up his hands. "Have you ever had sex with a man before?" Carter asked.
"So you're an ass virgin, too?"
"Yes, baby. I love the way you Americans say ass."
"How do you say it?" Carter asked.
"I love your arse, Carter, and I can't wait to bury my cock inside you."
"Arse, huh?"
"That's right. I love your accent."
"I like yours, too, Crag."
"If you say so."
"You don't believe me?" Carter frowned. "I don't lie."
"I didn't say you did, mate."
Crag sighed. "An American accent is so much nicer than an Aussie's. You all seem to round out your vowels and pronounce everything with perfect diction. Us Aussies tend to sound flat when we speak, and we're lazy, too. We drop a lot of letters when we speak."
"Hey, we can be lazy, too. I don't think your accent sounds flat."
"I was just sayin' like I hear it. It's a good thing you like my accent, baby, because you're going to be hearing it for the rest of your life."
Carter began to wash Crag. He started on his back and worked his way down his body from his neck to his heels. When he was done, he moved around to clean his front. Crag groaned when he bathed his big, hard cock and then sighed when he cleansed his balls. By the time he'd finished cleaning his mate, he didn't want to wait any longer. After Crag rinsed off, Carter turned off the water, stepped out of the shower, and grabbed two towels.
Their eyes connected as they dried off, and Carter couldn't look away from his mate's gaze. Not that he really wanted to.
Crag led the way back to the bedroom and then pulled the covers and sheet down to the bottom of the bed.
Carter took a deep breath and crawled onto the mattress. Crag got on beside him, but instead of lying down next to him, he sat on his haunches and stared at him. "I want to taste you on my tongue, baby."
He gulped but didn't refuse, because he wanted Crag's mouth on him as much as he seemed to want to taste his cock. He nodded in acceptance and then closed his eyes when Crag moved closer and began to touch him. Just having those massive, masculine hands running up and down his body made Carter shake with desire, and he wondered if he would be able to stand having his mouth on him, too.
"Open your eyes, Carter. I want you to watch me pleasure you."
Carter's eyes snapped open, and he met Crag's glowing golden eyes. His wolf pushed to the surface, and it was like both their animals rubbed against each other.
"Did you feel that, baby?" Crag's voice sounded as awed as he felt, and any qualms that Carter had left about having a man as a mate dissolved.
Crag shifted on the bed until he was lying on his belly between Carter's thighs. Carter had to spread his legs far apart to accommodate his mate's wide, bulky shoulders. Crag leaned down, breathed in the scent of his cock and balls, and growled.
"You smell so fucking good."
Carter groaned when Crag wrapped his hand around his erection and pumped up and down a few times. He thrust his hips up, silently begging for more. He didn't have to wait long. His mate licked him from balls to the tip of his cock and back again. Carter shuddered and moaned, but when Crag latched onto first one testicle and then the other and sucked it into his mouth, Carter was lost. He was lost in a sea of sensation and desire, and he never wanted it to end.
Crag released his gonad and then met his eyes. "I love those noises you make. My dick is so hard it's aching."
"Mine, too," Carter panted.
"Let me help you with that, baby."
Crag gripped the base of his cock and then sucked him into his mouth. Hot, wet heat enveloped him, and Carter growled low in his throat.
"Yes. Suck my cock. Make me come."
Crag sucked him hard and fast. He hollowed out his cheeks, took him to the back of his throat, and then swallowed. Carter knew he wasn't going to last long. Already the base of his spine was tingling and heat was encompassing his cock and balls, but when Crag took him down further into his throat and swallowed again, he was done for.
Carter couldn't hold back the tide any longer. "Gonna. Come," he panted.
Crag gripped his balls and then rolled them in his sac. Carter shouted, and then he shot load after load of cum down his mate's throat. He lay on the bed shaking and panting and hadn't even realized he'd closed his eyes until he opened them again.
His mate had a shit-eating grin on his face, but he also had a world of emotion in his eyes, and it was directed at Carter. He felt his eyes moisten and looked away, but Crag wasn't about to let him get away with that. He cupped Carter's cheek and brought his gaze back to him.
"That was beautiful, mate. I love the way you taste. Will you suck me and get me nice and wet?"
Crag lay down on his back next to him, and Carter shifted onto his hands and knees then moved between his mate's legs.


text: I have a silkie chick that hatched morning that was VERY sleepy with not a lot of activity for the first 6 or so hours. It did open it's eyes in the beginning, but just tended to close them and sleep a lot. It has perked up quite a bit, but now doesn't open it's eyes at all. I've put a light film of polysporin over the lids to make sure they aren't stuck. I can force them open with my fingers, but it closes them immediately again. It will drink when I dip it's beak but isn't eating at all. I can't tell if the chick is blind. I had a chick born without eyes...that was different. Also, this chick has a very strange peep. In humans we would call it a "cat's cry". Anyone with any experience like this? I'm fairly certain this chick will need to be euthanized, but just looking for input prior to doing that.

Good morning!
With the last weekend right before Christmas having just ended, the energy all around is charged with great anticipation for the merriest holiday of the year as well as the ending of the year 2014. In a holiday spirit, I embraced some sparkles with this dark metallic dolman sweater from Express, which is currently hosting a 50%-off-everything sale (by the way, I'm selling my teal one here). Incidentally, this style was recently brought back in stock due to popular demand – it first made its debut a few years ago in basic colors and I couldn't help but purchase a couple since they're so versatile! Now that the style is back, I was pleased to see that Express expanded the color choices and even offered metallic hues, like the indigo one I'm wearing here, which give the already stylish sweater some extra sparkle – perfect for the December holiday mood. Paired with a little black skort like this ASTR one, it's the perfect laidback yet polished outfit.
And speaking of the December holiday mood… With all the hectic party-planning and the gift-buying/sending, it's easy to forget to carve out some time for yourself to enjoy all the gorgeous opportunities that December has to offer. Snow is one of nature's holiday gifts to us, but if you're like me and don't live where it snows, here are some of my favorite December traditions that I always try to make time for. Granted, you might not necessarily live where I live, but these might just spark some ideas for you:
- Christmas Lights: This is my favorite thing about December. Something about seeing Christmas lights just makes me so happy! Great places to see some breathtaking light displays around the vicinity of Los Angeles include The Grove, L.A. Zoo, South Bay Sleepy Hollow Christmas Lights, Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade, Long Beach Chill at Queen Mary, and Dana Point IllumiOcean.
- Theatre: I haven't been able to do this recently, but I'm forever a fan of The Nutcracker Ballet. I'm definitely aiming to cross this off my list next year! I'm also a huge fan of Disney on Ice.
- Donate to charity: This time of year, it gets dreadfully cold at night (and even during the day, in some places), and a lot of people and animals alike need all the help they can get. Volunteer at your local soup kitchen, donate canned food, toys, and usable clothes to your local charity, and/or drop some spare change for the needy.
- Gather with friends and family: We all have busy schedules and might not necessarily get to see our friends and family as much as we like throughout the year, so what better time than over the holidays to make time for our loved ones?
What are some of your favorite December traditions? I'd love to hear them! In the meantime, the countdown to Christmas and the new year is nearing its end, so get ready for that! And as always, thank you for reading!

Although I have been working really hard on the designing I also am a big scrapper. I love it. It makes me happy. My latest page that really made me happy was one about my sister. She competes in Loggersports - or lumberjack competetions. She is super strong and the coolest chick I know. Here is what I made after a competition last weekend.
Lumberjack Kat
I used all Ellie Lash products on this page - Chocolate paper pack, Dotty Element made into an overlay from Coyote Kit, and the coolest new alpha, Alpha Dots! They are great and with a little outlinig from me they look just like logs!
I am working on a couple of new giveaways so I will be back later in the week with more stuff for everyone!

It's 8:27 and my children and I are all in our pj's watchin' tv! I am off today and my children are taking a "mental health day!" We all need one occasionally, right? Our plans for today include TP village, High School Musical 3 and flu shots! Yippee!
The girls LOOOOVVVVEEEE TP village and since my students are all running the TP's, the girls get to run around in and out of the TP's. Last night, they helped start fires (let's just say the mommy me was stressing out a little) and got to be up close and personal when my AYA girls put up their TP. (Putting up a TP is WAAAAYYYY more difficult than I would've thought! Those poles are HEAVY and everything has to be just so!)
Anyway, the TPs will be up today and tomorrow if you care to stop in for a little visit! =) Now... off to shower and start our day of playin hookie!

I have been planning out
All that I'd say to you
Since you slipped away
Know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days
Come Back- Pearl Jam
November 29th
In a moment reality had dissolved around me. In the hallways of Zanarkand Prep, where I played ball for the Behemoths, I reflect upon the respect I won playing a position that I've taken to a bigger field. Wasn't it all just in my mind? I felt a power when the ball hit my foot, collided against the net, rocked with the blitz and the current of the sphere pool. My ego rose and the pool swelled. The people would stand and cheer— for me! Wakka rocked in those same waves and now he coaches the dreams of the next generation. We're all replaceable.
I had a passion for the game and a hatred for the man who taught me the shot. Jecht hated to watch me score. I badly wanted to take away from my father the thing he loved. He dedicated his life to Blitzball above family.
It became about more than upstaging my father. I found that I loved the attention; I loved feeling like nothing could penetrate me. I felt the motion of the wave in my sleep. I was rocking—but now I wait for the next ripple on the surface—my surroundings have calmed to a standstill. I can't sit still. I adjust myself on the edge of the bench and I wait for the nostalgia like nausea to settle in the pit of my stomach.
Wakka joins me in the hallway after practice breaks out. A silver whistle on a black shoelace hangs underneath the collar of his white-pressed polo. I stand up and brush my palms against the fabric of my jeans.
We hug, "It's nice to see ya!"
"Is practice out?
"Yeah, the guys are just getting changed."
I ask him if he's ready to grab something to eat and we decide on stopping for a couple drinks at a sports bar fifteen minutes away. It's a dive filled with asinine chatter over locally brewed draught. When the conversation begins to lull, a broadcast of last night's Aurochs game highlights fills in the spaces. It's hard to concentrate on the conversation when there's so much I'd rather be saying. It's hard not to be angry, not to attack him with all my hurt and frustration.
He orders a drink and asks me what I feel like eating. I decide on an avocado club sandwich. More instant replays of last night's game, chocobo racing, a small script runs across one the bottom of the screen: tragedy in downtown Zanarkand.
Wakka invited me to lunch but it feels like little more than a formality. I want him to speak up. And wasn't that shooting just a couple blocks from the community center?
"You've been a little off—it must be trying with Shuyin on leave. He was a good support-player for you." Wakka's been watching me play, taking notes, using my inattention to the game as a tool, an example for his students. Focus, focus, focus, keep your eye on the blitz, interact with the play—don't get distracted by those girls up there on the bleachers: this isn't just a game—it's a culture, its religion, you know? The mentality is that If you don't succeed here you might as well drown in the pool because you'll never love anything as much as the blitz.
"I'm not sure he'll come back to the team." I reply. I wish there was a drink in front of me, so that I could do something with my hands. "Any promising athletes on the Behemoths this year?"
"Our center's been drafted to the Goers— we won't really know what happens until the end of the season but things are looking good."
"Great, you do a good job with those boys." I reply. The waitress comes back with our drinks.
"I do what I can." Wakka drinks.
I drink.
I still check my phone more than I should and spend empty moments wondering what she's doing. Underneath the bar top I scan old messages while Wakka watches the plays and our food cooks in the back of the kitchen and cools under the heat lamp. We wait in tense seconds as our waitress manages a full section. I look through the small things pointless things she would tell me about her day. I look through my unanswered questions, apologies.
I drink, I swallow, drink again—this time deeper, I take in more, I feel my chest trembling as it accepts full swigs of the draught. It isn't helping to cool me down. I realize it might be too early to want to drown. "When you go home tonight, Wakka, are you going to mention this?"
Wakka's drink doesn't quite make it to his lip. "I doubt that'd be a good idea, Tidus."
"Right." I say, "You tell them you saw me—or tell Yuna how well I'm doing?"
"This doesn't have to affect our friendship." He fixes straight ahead at those screens, at those games. "Would you expect Lu to turn her away?"
"Do you know what she's thinking?" I ask, "I just want to know where I stand." The waitress sets down our meals, Wakka thanks her and orders us both another drink, "I wouldn't expect you to lie to me."
"Well I guess that's just tough, Tidus. I guess—" he picks up the drink, sharply deciding not to finish his sentence. "She won't be staying with us much longer."
"Is she heading back to Luca?"
"No, she's settling here. Her mother's cosigned on a house in Zanarkand East."
"A house in Shuyin's neighborhood?"
"Three bedrooms, an unfinished basement. Two bathrooms. It's about 40 years old, modern enough—nice back yard but she'll need to have a few things fixed up. I thought Gippal might be able to work on the electric a bit, and during summer break I'll get to the basement. They got a great deal, about 55,000 gil, I'd say."
"Her mother?"
"She's going to be flying in on Monday." Wakka drinks.
"Really?" Yuna's mother moved shortly after her and Braska's separation. "I didn't think she'd ever consider coming back to Zanarkand." The harassment had become too trying. The media painted an entirely unsympathetic portrait of Braska's ex-wife.
"I don't know how long she'll be in town—look Tidus, I agree that the two of you need to talk—I think that she's just as confused as you are—you coming home all wrapped up tightly in the past like you were."
"Is she at your place right now?"
"What kind of question is that?"
I feel indignant. Rhetorical. "You know what Rikku and Gippal think—right?"
"What do they think?"
"They don't think I should be so patient with her."
"No, huh?"
"No." I smile, "They don't."
Wakka purses his bottom lip, he drinks, I drink.
"Will you tell her you saw me?"
"It'll only make her feel sick. Do you want me to do that to Yuna?"
Kind of. We watch the rest of the game and I treat him to dinner. Wakka drops me off at my car. There was more I could have asked but I'm too exhausted.
I drive to the arena, back to the blitz, and an empty Thursday afternoon locker room. Sphere practice has been closed for the week while they treat the water and, while the gym's been fairly busy in the mornings, after lunch things cool down. When I stop in to check with coach the building's almost deserted.
"Sit down." He says without looking up from his research. "What can I do you for, Tidus?"
I cross the gymnasium floor on a manhunt. The boy I need to find is in the back supply room, looking through crates of gym supplies. I spot Danny without him noticing me, "Your dad's here, Daniel." I coax him lightly but he shrugs off my hand and makes a break for it, running out to the rest of the kids in the gym.
"Tell him I ran away!" I turn on my heels and glance back at Mr. Rogers and his daughter in the next room saying their goodbyes to Kory.
Kory makes eye contact and excuses himself from the conversation. He walks in and all six feet of him breeze over to grab the kid. It takes Kory a few minutes of roughhousing before he throws Danny over his shoulder in a fit of laughing hysterics. A couple of the boys chase after them and I watch bewildered by his natural talent with children.
Our intern calls all the kids back to calm down, resorting to her whistle where vocal chords fall short. The boys come back to her and I excuse myself to say goodbye to the family.
The family will be moving to Bevell at the end of the week and it's one of Danny's last days with us. He's been here 3 years, but his mother's been transferred for her medical internship. It's been just Mr. Rogers and the kids for the last few months.
"Are you all packed up?" I ask.
"We're getting there." Jeremy laughs, "The kids keep rummaging through the boxes and taking out all their stuff."
"That must be because Danny doesn't think he's actually going anywhere." Kory jokes.
"Well you can stay here if you want," Jeremy addresses his son, "but I don't know where you'll live."
"We'll clear an area for him in the boot room and make him do our paperwork." Kory suggests.
Kory's close with the Rogers family and most of the families here. He makes an effort to connect with the people who leave their kids with us. He's known the Rogers since before they had kids, before Jennifer and Jeremy had even met. Five years ago, Jennifer job-shared my position while she was still taking classes in med-school.
Kory hugs Danny and Jeremy goodbye and promises that Danny can come back anytime when they're visiting the city.
"Danny would be lousy at paperwork. No attention span to speak of."
"Well, we'd be paying him in sandwiches, cereal and bedtime stories."
"Can I be paid in sandwiches, cereal and bedtime stories?" I joke. In the distance I hear the Rogers engine.
"Let me guess: turkey on rye, mini-wheats, and the velveteen rabbit?"
"You read me like a book."
"I just listen." Kory smiles, "What are your plans this fine evening?"
"Take out and television." I offer. We start walking towards Kory's office. "Maybe a little bit of organization."
He opens the door for me, "You should let me help you with some of that, or I could come over and cook for you while you're packing, feed you a real meal."
"Turkey on rye?"
"I make a mean baked spaghetti." He leans back against the desk with a small smile.
"I just want to help take your mind off things, Yuna. You've had a rough go of it and my feeling is that you could use a friend," He loosens his tie, "Someone not so connected to the situation, a fresh outlook. I can be an objective listener."
I press my temple. "I'd like that..."
He reaches forward for my other hand and pulls me closer, "Seriously. We're friends."
Yet, something in my gut tells me it's more than that, that I should be wary... that even though coming to work with this man has been the highlight of my day for the past few months, I should be careful.
A copy of the Zanarkand Rail sits on his desk. The Abes are on the cover. It's been 10 years since Jecht's retirement. Tidus, gorgeous as ever, wears half a smile and a baggy black beanie that matches his button up waffle-print shirt. I grab the issue, rub my free thumb over his photo and even while doing this I feel—something. A jolt in the nape of my neck. "Are you a Blitz fan, Kory?"
"Was rubbish at it, so not really." He shifts and his knee briefly brushes my right upper thigh.
"My ex-boyfriend plays for the Abes," I turn the cover so he can see it, "The blonde." Kory takes the magazine and drops my hand. I back away a few paces. "Tidus and I have known each other for a very long time."
"You're going to hate me." He pauses for a moment, his face void of expression. "I've made arrangements for a couple of the Zanarkand Abes to come by later this week to do a workshop with the kids— I don't think that he had anything to do with it, it was all booked through management, but I didn't know..."
Does that mean Tidus would be coming here? To my work? My heart cowers at the possibility. I'm not sure if I'm excited or terrified. He can't see me, not yet. "Kory, things are really complicated between us. I don't want to be making this into a big issue but is it at all possible that I could get the day off?"
"Yuna, I'll need your help. The press will be here to interview me— you know that we're short staffed as it is."
"I don't want to put you in this position, I'm sorry. It's just that, I don't mean to get personal but, I haven't told him yet." It sounds ridiculous to put it into words. I'm almost six months pregnant.
"And he's the—" Kory gestures towards my womb.
I nod, my throat dry.
"Well if he's one of the players they're sending over he's going to find out. If any of the other players know you—he'll probably find out."
"I know."
"Why haven't you told him?"
I have no 'why'. I know this isn't the right way for him to find out. The news looms overhead as I finish my workday. I find a reason to cancel dinner and by the time I settle in behind the steering wheel of my car and open the center counsel, I've made a decision.
I never threw away my keys to Tidus' place. Right now he's probably at practice... but if I go home first I'll have to explain myself to Lulu and Wakka, they'd want to get involved, be there to support me—Tidus. I need this to come from me, alone. I knew that once I decided to tell him, I wouldn't be able put it off longer, and now I don't have that choice.
I drive to his apartment, taking the longest route. I park outside the building, my heart thunders, the phone is heavy in my hand, the clicking of each digit echoes. Tidus picks up on the second ring but dead, stale air sits between us. He's the first to speak.
"Are you at home?" I cut through it, forget the small talk— just tell him facts. I'm not going to pretend like there's anything to salvage between us.
"I'm just finishing at the Gym."
I pause, he doesn't sound pleased to hear from me. "I'm outside your building and I want to talk to you."
"We can talk like this..."
"I think it would be better if we could do this in person..."
"I don't know what this is. You packed all your stuff up months ago and left... I tried texting, calling and you wouldn't answer." He breathes, "No one wanted to tell me where you were or what, what happened to you... so now you're calling me out of nowhere and I don't know what to make of it."
"I could explain better if I could see you..."
"You don't feel like, maybe I needed an explanation a long time ago?"
"I'm sorry."
"Don't say you're sorry because you think that's what I want to hear."
"I know that I've handled things really poorly but if you could just hear me out—"
He pauses, my heart continues to pound but I don't think I can breathe. He's angry and I don't know why I didn't expect him to be.
"I'll be there in ten minutes, I'll call and let the doorman know to let you up."
I drop the key back into the console but I don't leave my car until I see his pull alongside the building and park. He looks freshly showered; he waits in the car, staring at the steering wheel. If I get out of the vehicle he'll see me and know before I have a chance to tell him.
He gets out of the Vehicle and walks rigidly towards the front doors of his complex.
I open my car door and call him. I stand on the cement, shielding myself with the door, a poor disguise. He turns and looks at me. He walks over. We're meters apart, feet, I'm waiting for the inches and centimeters. He stops and it kills me that I can't touch him.
"I shouldn't have been short with you on the phone."
"It's okay." I reply.
"Yuna— if you're here to make up I don't think I can go back to being your friend."
"I'm not asking you to."
He looks at me with unyielding eye contact.
"I'm happy to see you." It's not the truth. It's partially the truth. This is painful.
"Should we go inside?"
I realize I'm shivering. "I just have this one thing I need tell you..."
"Why did you leave?"
"You never would have loved me like you loved her." It's easier to say than I expected, almost a knee-jerk reaction. Like I've been waiting too long to let it out. Tidus and I are over, I'm not trying to salvage our relationship anymore or draw him back, I just want to keep this from getting any worse. "But that's not why I'm here."
"You don't know that."
I feel like I do. I feel like it's the only thing I know. He never said he loved me, he'd make love to me and its absence would ring in the silence.
"Yuna, you don't know that. You never talked to me—you never gave me a chance to fix this, or explain what happened that night."
"You lost the love of your life."
"The love of my life? Adrianna had a little boy with my brother, that I spent most of the day of her funeral convincing myself the kid was my own— I thought it was going to tear us—you and me apart." He grabs the edge of the car door, "I found out it was Shuyin's and I was drunk, and I acted emotionally. I'm sorry if that scared you. I would have made it up to you, Yuna. I would have done what it took to reassure you."
"You still refer to her as the love of your life."
"Because you did." he runs a hand through his hair, "I really feel like I'm saying all the wrong things. I have missed you, but I'm mad as hell at you and it doesn't change how much I love you," He grimaces, bowing his head, "I have this pillow on my bed that doesn't even really smell like you anymore, but I don't wash it because once it did. I haven't even gotten rid of any of your things... you absolutely broke my heart."
"I'm pregnant. I just—didn't want you to hear it from someone else."
"Pregnant?" Still reeling from everything I'd just said, that one word tastes awful in my mouth. "You're with someone?"
"No. Tidus, I'm about six months along."
I'm not sure I understand, but she doesn't wait for me to react before making a move to get back into the vehicle. I hold onto the car door to keep her from closing the last strand of communication between us. "My kid?"
"Your kid." I see now the subtle ways her body has changed, the loose fitting navy dress, the contrast between the dark tones and her stark-white skin. Her eyes look forward, past me, out into the street. Should I be angry? I feel guilty.
"Can you come with me inside, I'll cook us something, we can talk..."
She continues to look out at the street. "I just wanted you to know. This doesn't change anything."
"It changes everything, Yuna. Do you really think you should just leave right now? You don't want to hear what I have to say?"
"The longer I sit here with you now the more painful it's going to be for me to drive away."
"I don't want you to go anywhere— this affects me too. You can't just do what you want with no regard to..." I trip on my sentence, I don't want to get angry with her. If the kid is mine, and clearly she's decided to keep it, I'm going to be in the picture. "Please come inside."
I take her hand and coax her out of the car. I draw her into me and feel my chest cave, the need to cry. She shutters and I choke it down. I brace her head against my shoulder, smell her hair and swallow hard.
She's breathing heavy, the winds picking up; I need to take her inside.
Yuna lets me hold her hand as we make our way to my apartment, my tenth-floor penthouse, my bachelor pad. Suddenly I'm self-conscious about my environment, the sparse furnishing. The room feels empty. I sit her down on the couch and move to make some tea. She feels reluctant to drop my hand.
She picks up a call while I'm in the kitchen. It must be Lulu because she lies about where she is and ends the conversation abruptly.
"I heard you bought a place, by Shuyin and Lenne."
"It's a small house, it needs a lot of work but Wakka helped me find a good price."
"He told me about it, I saw him at lunch. Your mom's coming in?"
"She wanted to be here for this. My dad doesn't know."
I place the kettle on the burner and come back to the couch, choosing to sit on an armchair facing her, rather than beside her. "Well, at least I'm not the last person you told."
Yuna flinches. "I know that I deserve that... I was always going to tell you but I found it so hard— knowing that we're over. I didn't want to think about how you'd react. I didn't want you to be angry with me."
"You think I'd be angry? I'm not angry with you," I pause, I don't want to lie to her, either. "I am confused about a lot of things. I still don't really understand why you left."
She closes her eyes. "I can't compete."
"You never had to."
"Outside, by the car... you said that you loved me. You never said that to me before, but I know you loved her. Because of our history— and my history with Adrianna, I couldn't deal with it— I had just found out I was pregnant. If I had stayed with you, you would always be somewhere else."
"So are you closing the doors on us?"
She squeezes her palms together, "I can't do that."
"Then let's take things slow and figure it out. I want to be around for this."
"That's not what I want, for you to stay with me because of—"
"It's not." I breathe, "I haven't forgiven myself for how things ended. I still really care about you."
I know it sounds desperate as I say it, I hear my own voice crack. Am I supposed to be trying to save face right now? Can I afford to? Can I afford not to? Yuna doesn't react to me, the tea kettle whistles and she gets up, moving through the space like we still share it, to pour our hot water.
"But you should think about it. I'm not holding you to anything."
"I don't have anything to think about."
"What's your answer, Tidus?" Yuna asks, working from the kitchen. "We have too many things unsettled between us to go back to how things were. We're going to... " She stops, adjusts, "I'm going to have a baby and since you want to be a part of this we need to find a way to handle it."
"And we will, everything's going to be okay, I'm going to be better."
"You're not understanding me." She braces herself against the counter, "We're not going to get back together anytime soon."
"But we should work on it."
"I wouldn't know where to start."
The tea bags steep, "I have some ideas. I think it's important that we try. Rikku and Gippal are doing the therapy thing— "
"Counseling is a good idea, we should talk to someone about co-parenting." She brings the mugs in, and sets them down on the glass-surface coffee table.
Slivers of steam rise from our cups, dissipating into fumes. Yuna's phone rings and she ignores the call. She sends a text, curls her legs underneath her body on the couch. She closes the phone and reaches for her drink, cooling it with her breath.
"Exactly how far along are you?"
"Six and a half months..."
She flinches, recovers, returns her attention to the tea. "I didn't know until I was pretty far along... I found out the same night she died."
She told me it was the stomach flu, avoided me for the week leading up to the funeral, and let me deal with my confusion and grief without saying a word. And then Yuna packed. And then Yuna left.
I watch her with trepidation; amazed that she's an arm-reach away.
"I'm sorry."
"I should have told you sooner."
"I should have known it wasn't the stomach flu."
"I can't do this alone..." she confesses suddenly.
I bring myself next to her, hand on cheek, kiss her forehead. "I think that we've got two and a half months... and we'll figure it out along the way. It's okay."
"I'm terrified."
"You're going to be great."
She pulls away, eyes wide and focused on me, "aren't you scared, aren't you—"
"I'm fine. Just let me be a part of this. Let's work on it, okay?"
With a closed mouth and wide eyes she seems to be fighting with herself. She blinks, reaches for the tea, looking for a tool to break the moment, I grab her hand because I want her focus.
"We can try." She says.
"I'll find us someone to talk to." I tell her.
"Do you want to see the house?" She asks, I can tell she's on the verge of tears; her voice is hard, faltering.
"Let's go." I ask her to wait and grab one of the heavier jackets from her stuff that I'd packed away. Clothes, make-up, all things I held onto.
I lock up the apartment behind us and help her into my car. I'm unsure of how delicately I should be treating her, what she needs.
The sky starts to turn. I merge onto the highway, a familiar route. I let myself think about Shuyin and Lenne, Wakka and Lulu, Rikku and Gippal. Me and Yuna.
"Are you in shock?" She asks.
"I might be." I tell her with a grin.
"Are you happy, are you nervous? What are you thinking?"
"I don't know," I run one hand through my hair and then promptly put it back on the wheel, safety conscious. "Nervous, definitely nervous."
"Do you think I made the right decision?"
"I think that it was the only option—I think that you're more than capable of being a fantastic mother and that we can give this child a happy life."
"Will you love it?"
"Yuna, of course I will."
I lose her again to the silence. She points me in the right direction. Two blocks east of Shuyin and Lenne's. We stop at an overgrown garden, on a paved driveway where weeds poke through the brick and the charming red stucco is two stories high. White paned windows line the walls, a white garage and blue front door with a half-moon window.
Charming and curious. She unlocks the door, her small frame drowning in the heavy coat. The rooms are nearly empty; a few pieces of furniture covered in old sheets sit in the front foyer. The wooden floors are worn but have potential. She switches on the lights and dust settles.
"There is a lot we can do here." I say, removing one of the sheets and sitting down with her on an old loveseat.
"Gippal is going to work on the electricity when he has the time… some of the furniture should arrive next week."
"Are you still working?"
She nods, "For as long as possible."
"Kory knows."
"Kory…" I recognize a little bit of a pit in my stomach, pulling, weighted. I let it sit. "Can I help you with this?"
"I have money saved up."
"I can get this place ready in a jiffy, Yuna." I say, getting up. "Give me the grand tour!"
She laughs, getting up from the chair, addressing me. "I know—you are very capable but…"
"You're nesting, I understand. I just want to help."
"What do you see?"
"I see a couple coats of paint, refinished floors. Lots of baby-proofing." I step near her, "I see linen curtains and overstuffed couches. I see a four poster bed and a yellow nursery."
I see coming home, parking my car in the driveway and I smell chicken cooking on the stove, a child napping on the couch. I look around the ill-lit room and I see all the things I can turn it into.
Hello? Is this thing still on? Sometimes I go through and edit this story to warm up for other projects. All the chapters with proper titles have been edited within the last week, somewhat. I think I did the one during the tournament half asleep. I'm a journalist now, Culture Editor for the Sheaf. You can check out my articles at: /author/jennamann/
This took a while for me to write because I'm currently working and working on my novel. Reviews are appreciated, they make me feel awesome and want to continue with the story. Let me know what you think, all things considered this is a pretty big chapter, I guess.
Thanks to Deajei for editing, as always! And thanks to my readers for sticking around and reviewing.
See you in a bit!
