Taking over for another co-worker is giving me this weekend off for the first time in a year! May your weekend be happy and healing. Thank you for being my friend, RolandRoland D.

Takes a LOT of work.<br /><br />I just posted this in reply to your comment you just made on my Lost Opportunity story: <br /><br />Don't we all make mistakes! I just hope as I get older that I also get wiser so that, as you say so eloquently, my friend Roland, our "tomorrow will not be filled with aching longings to have done better."<br />I'm still savoring your Not So Innocents Abroad. As I told you, I'm a very slow reader. I just love the poetic flow of almost every sentence in the story. You must never give up writing!<br /><br />Hope you're having a good week, as good as possible in this sometimes difficult world.<br /><br />As ever, Ann<br />@ anncarbinebest.comAnn Carbine Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11948726603913621673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-7971046102473152572016-03-24T09:50:34.310-05:002016-03-24T09:50:34.310-05:00I've read the later books of a series where it...I've read the later books of a series where it is sadly apparent that the author is only writing the books to fulfill a contractual obligation.
