~~~ Author's Update ~~~

I know I said I'd have another chapter up by now, and I'm sorry I don't.

Shortly after returning from my vacation, my grandmother passed away. It was rather sudden, so it really took me by surprise. I still am processing it as it has only been a couple of weeks and there has yet to be a service for her.

Work and preparing for the holidays has also kept my very busy. Normally my shopping would be done, but with the trip and other events, I'm behind with everything.

I'm sorry to leave my readers hanging, but I will update when I can. There are tons of ideas in my head, but I haven't had the time to sit at my keyboard and write them down.

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Thank you again for staying with me. I promise that I will finish this story.
