Thank you for your kind review. I am looking for a Joe, too. Think my husband would mind?
Comment from jmdg1954
Again, another chapter that slowly brings the relationship along, as it should in just a the weeks time. The dialogue this time seemed a little, I don't know if this is the right word, but fake, forced??? All in all, a very good chapter.
Now for the important stuff... I just read your notes, my wife on December 10, 2001 had undergone surgury for the removal of lymph node under her right arm and a small incision and removal on her right breast. EVERY, EVERY, EVERY follow-up visit since then has been no issue. With her Breast Surgion and Oncologist (who she puts 1000% confidence in) she has had perfect follow-up visits! I pray you have the same!!! Keep the faith, be positive and may God bless... John

I am extremely happy for your wife. I am praying to finally get rid of this. I appreciate your kind review and I will recheck my dialogue.

Wow, double drama! (In the story, and in the notes.) I hope you get what you want, schoolwise, and i hope Joe and Sara do as well.

You're welcome.
I'm taking some time off from the site, so, all the best.
Feel better!
(Standard still lets you write reviews, right? So, I guess I'll still stop by, a bit:0)

I will miss you.

Thank you.
I'll be around a bit, so....

First of all, I wish you well. I'll be thinking of you on Tuesday and hoping for the best.
I do so look forward to each of your posts to see how Joe and Sara are coming along. Once again, I was not disappointed as you continued to develop their relationship at a measured pace. There's just one little typo. I think you left out a word in "don't do something attack us" Perhaps a to? Thanks for another great chapter!

I must have been fixing that when you were reviewing it. Yes, I left out to, such a little word, but every important. Thank you for your kind thoughts and for your review. I appreciate your support.
Comment from Aletheia
This is a wonderful story. I wonder how long Sara is going to have to wait? I think I had read a previous chapter, but even if I hadn't, your writing is very fluid and the story is easy to follow. I really enjoyed it.

Comment from Roberta Joan Jensen
Another great job, Barbara.
Only spotted a couple of things.
making sure the cartels don't do something [to] attack us through them.
Your life is so much more exicting[exciting] than mine.
Joe felt his breathing become rapid and his heart beating harder. -- This doesn't sound consistent. I can't think how to change it, but take a look at it.
Our prayers are with you. Be strong.
Roberta

I already read it and wrote a review. I struggled with the review and gave you a 6. Than you for your kind review.

My apologies, Barbra. I simply didn't see the name clearly enough to realize you had read the story and reviewed it. Tanks so much.
Comment from c_lucas
I think Sara can put Joe in the interested column. You are doing a good job building their relationship. This is very well written. I am enjoying the read.

Comment from Rama Rao
An excellent chapter as usual. Joe's character is very interesting. However, he is going to be a one star general soon. Officers of that rank generally do more planning and paperwork and less field work, I thought. Secondly, I found the word scooted twice in the text. What exactly does it mean? Is it American slang apart from what is given in Webster?

Another way to move closer--scooted. Joe is in a special task force. It's small group of men. The treat each other as equals and rank is only a pay grade, in this task force. Not in the military. Thank you for your kind review and support.
Comment from Belinda
You must have a whole lot of knowledge about the everyday tasks of Task Force. I like the way things are related in a conversation between two trusting lovers. I might try it myself. Interesting chapter, Barbara. (Sorry about your health condition, I hope you will soon recover.)
