Hello ladies!
Hi Sheila! Not long enough!?! LOL!!! This part was actually longer than some other parts - coming in at 11 pages. <g> I'll take that as a compliment, though, if it dragged by and you thought it would never end... then we'd have a problem.
Oh good! I'm so glad that the medical jargon and scenes worked - yay (thank you, Sue!)
LOL! Living with him to take better care of him... nice excuse.
And Lois is wanting to be with him. Why didn't she just get up and go to his house. If they have their own apartments, technicaly the don't live together, right?
You know, I do think Lois makes a little mention of this at the end of the next part. <g> Not exactly this, but along these lines...
What errand? Oh, now that would spoil the next part! You wouldn't want me to spoil it, would you? Hang in there, Sheila, you're about to find out.
Okay...you done kinda good but you still left us in the dark. I don't know why we keep coming back for more. Okay, it's because you're an awesome writer and you have that power over us...and I hate you for it!
Awwww, thanks! I just love those "love/hate" relationships. LOLS! Thanks for the fdk, Sheila! I loved it!!!
Hi Ann! <DJ cries for Ann and for the lost fdk> Poor thing! Well thank you for coming back and giving me more nice fdk anyway - darn that ROTFL icon!
I'm glad you enjoyed the part with Jack. <g>
No, Lois doesn't think that "Clark" would think she was 'sleeping her rent'. Lois thinks that she might be imposing on Clark... that he needs his space, because (as she pointed out) after all, they aren't married.
Ah, I see where you were adding the ROTFL icon. <g> Glad you liked that - I found it rather funny, myself.
Thanks for the fdk, Ann! Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Laura S! LOL at your mental images. <g>
While Clark was waiting to get the biopsy I was getting all antsy--Like I was about to be stuck with a needle. [Razz]
Me too (while I was writing it) - I'm a huge needlephoebic. Hate them!
Thanks for the fdk, Laura, I appreciate it! I don't know about it being the 'usual', but that's so sweet of you to say. <g>
Hi Barbara! Glad you enjoyed Jack. <g>
Well, even if Lois doesn't stay with Clark the next few days... I'm sure she'll still be "around". <g> Although, she just might stay, you never know.
Thanks for the fdk and glad to know you're waiting for the next one. <g>
Okay, so have I lost some readers because they are beginning to think "sheesh - how long is this story going to go on, anyway?" Is it getting too lengthy? Too wordy? Is it seeming to meander too much?
Well, I desperately hope that's not what anyone thinks. But I did want to reassure you that I do know now how many more posts there will be. As it stands now there will be 23 parts total. I'm still tinkering with 2 sections, trying to decide if they should be 1 short and 1 regular post or combine them into 1 very long post... so if I decide to combine them, we could have 22 parts. I originally said 20 - 25 parts - so I've kept to my guidelines.
So basically we have 5 parts left. I hope (and truly do think) that you all will greatly enjoy the next part. There are still a couple of fairly big angsty moments left in the story, but the next part isn't one of them. <g> And the last 3 parts will move pretty fast... winding up for the last big hill on the rollercoaster, so to speak.
Thank you all for your gracious fdk so far. I'm not sure when I'll post part 19... still doing a little tweaking and things are kind of busy right now.
But I'll see you back soon.
