Twenty plus years of living that, with just a few short weeks in the middle of pain. My fault, my error, my failure, that short period. Then the endin..., nearly three long hard years of worry and fear, finally over. One is never ready. There were no children as a result of our unions, I was fertile, so was Ted. It simply didn’t happen, only God knows the answer to that. We would have welcomed but we also never really had a concern or even discussed it. My time came in my 43rd year, no chance for. He scanned the edge of the forest on his right and looked for a break in the trees. Finally, he saw one. About a hundred feet ahead of him, a dirt road curved into the trees and seemed to disappear.

He looked around before grabbing his bag and rifle and starting further into the forest.Eric had been in. It took all day, and involved a lot of intense climbing. We were sore and exhausted when we came back, but we decided to celebrate our accomplishment with a couple bottles of champagne down on the beach. As we downed the last glass, we were caught in a sudden rain storm. We were instantly soaked, even though we sprinted back to our rooms. When we got back, Stephen and Emily discovered they had left their massive French doors open. Their room and everything in it was soaked. They couldn’t even. So when I got home after we ate I went upstairs and put on this short white dress that was tied behind my neck and showed a lot of cleavage. When I came down the stairs I asked Phil if this was OK for the party. He just attacked me saying YES, YES, YES and we had sex right in the foyer. Well we went to the party that Saturday night at about 10:00, we got there before Pete & Jill so we helped ourselves to the Buffet, and they had Turkey with all the trimming. While we were eating, in came Jill.
