Seem like Nate lived a very lonely life. And I'm really starting to wonder what went wrong at his job.

She laughed brightly. "Oh, Nate. I like you. I'm so glad we chose to break into your cabin. You are so strange."LMAO

Oh my god, I'm going to burst but I have to say this. You all are going to LOVE!!! Ruth...she's epic and awesome and maybe a bit hilarious and that's all I'm saying on the subject of Ruth.

"I'm showing you that I'm really thinking like you asked me to."OMG!! Art is so literal, lol!
I haven't met Ruth yet but I'm looking forward to it :)
Starting chapter 7 and the mystery of why Nate got fired will be answered soon for you which I was very relieved about because I admit I was totally curious as to what he did or didn't do to get fired.

LOL!! Right?
Ha! I knew it!!!!! Blame it on my lifelong career in book law enforcement! LOL
"Are you trying to show off?" She glanced at Nate, then back at Alex. "I think it's working."LMAO!
And there's Ruth. LOL. But I'll go change and check on Jamilah now, okay? I should be back in an hour. :)

Awesome, I'm going to take a few minutes to check out the holiday products from Lush because the kid wants to know what to get us...he has an awesome discount so we always get some Lush products for Mother's or Father's Day/birthdays/Christmas
I finished chapter 6 and am going to take care of my fur babies now. I should be back in an hour :)Wow! Ruth is scaring me, lol! But yes, she's also awesome :)
Have fun looking for your Christmas gift, Karen!!
Talk to you soon :)
Ok that's the holiday thing done now back to the book.
By the way did you all catch the thing about Jimmy or should I say 'Randy' when Nate made his call to Big Eddie?
Karen wrote: "By the way did you all catch the thing about Jimmy or should I say 'Randy' when Nate made his call to Big Eddie?"Yes, I did. And I guess that's what Simone meant in one of her earlier comments. Very suspicious!
I'm still on my walk with Amy but I should be back and ready in 25 minutes :)
"I think we should probably have more bacon just to make sure this morning wasn't a fluke." and Art just got another gold star from me. She's just to freakin' adorable.

Ok, I'm going to take a little bit of a break until then so that I don't get too far a head of you and Simone. I think I'm actually getting near the end of Chapter 7 now.
Karen wrote: ""I think we should probably have more bacon just to make sure this morning wasn't a fluke." and Art just got another gold star from me. She's just to freakin' adorable."She is! I really like her :)
I'm back and slowly starting on chapter 7. I think Simone should be back soon, too.
I have a question. What does it mean when there is an "a-" in front of a word like at the beginning of chapter 7 "Times, they were a-changing..." I have seen this a few times, and not only with "a-okay" which I guess means something like being perfectly fine, but I don't know how to interpret this when it's a prefix to other words.
Awkward!! "Are you breaking up with me?"I love how Nate just blurts things out, lol!
Hi ladies!I'm back! Sorry, it took longer than expected, but it was a good thing that I checked on the horses.
I won't reply to your last emails, since I still have to finish chapter 6 and otherwise it would be hard to catch up with you. LOL.
But yes, I meant the Jimmy thing with my comment. :)

And yes, I love how Nate just blurts things out, it's hilarious.
Karen wrote: "It's really just a colloquialism or maybe more accurately an affection of speech that's common in certain areas...like the fact that Canadians tend to say 'eh' at the end of a sentence. ..."Thank you :) And here all this time I thought it would alter a word somehow, lol! Thanks for explaining!!
The scene in chapter 7 when Alex (view spoiler)
Starting chapter 7 now and Ruth is definitely something else. LOL
26% Wow! Who is this girl?

Josy wrote: "26% Wow! Who is this girl?"At least she's very wise for her age. :)

She really is!
I'm starting chapter 8 now.

Me too now. Finally. :)
Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! Trivial Pursuit. I love Trivial Pursuit...I suck at it but I still love it...Nate doesn't...he is fail but still I like him.
LOL. Now that's what I call relationship development, measured by coffee mugs. ;-)
Karen wrote: "Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! Trivial Pursuit. I love Trivial Pursuit...I suck at it but I still love it...Nate doesn't...he is fail but still I like him."I'm still far from where you are, but I loved to play Trivial Pursuit, too. :)
"He looked. For strictly professional reasons. That was it."LOL! Sure, Nate. Keep telling yourself this ;)
Karen wrote: "Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! Trivial Pursuit. I love Trivial Pursuit...I suck at it but I still love it...Nate doesn't...he is fail but still I like him."I have never played it, lol!
Simone wrote: "LOL. Now that's what I call relationship development, measured by coffee mugs. ;-)"Right? I'd almost call it sweet, lol!

It is. LOL
"You're very strange." Her smile was blinding.
"You have no idea."
Now there's a very telling statement that somehow says everything and nothing all at the same time.
Hahaha, little Art is playing matchmaker. :)

Hehehe, she's so enjoying herself. But I love me a growly Alex. LOL
Simone wrote: "Hahaha, little Art is playing matchmaker. :)"Oh she so is the little stinker.
Just starting chapter 9 and it seems that things are coming into bloom with our trio.
Karen wrote: "Just starting chapter 9 and it seems that things are coming into bloom with our trio."I'm still some pages away from chapter 9 but I'm ready for something to happen.
Well heads up ladies because we haven't seen the last of the water guy (Randy).
Karen wrote: "Well heads up ladies because we haven't seen the last of the water guy (Randy)."LOL! Why am I not surprised. I wonder what happened to the real water guy. Jimmy was his name, right?
Karen wrote: "Well heads up ladies because we haven't seen the last of the water guy (Randy)."Dammit! I should have gone into law enforcement. ;-)
