Hello, everyone! I hope you all had a safe and wonderful holiday.
I needed to update Chapter Thirty-Nine to include a scene I missed. I’ve marked the edit with ***** at the beginning and end to help those who’ve already read the chapter find the new content easily. It’s a small addition but important for the bigger picture of the story.
Over the holidays, I was down for two weeks with something nasty. Some chapters I wrote during that time might not reflect my usual clarity. Thankfully, I’m back to feeling normal again well, as normal as I can be.
Thank you all for the messages and comments—I read every one of them, and some had me laughing out loud!
Love and Peace!
