My name is Doug and my fiance's name is Brenda. We are both in our late 20's and have been living together for awhile now and set our wedding date for three months from today. Time flew by as we made all the arrangements for our small private ceremony and reception and the day was almost here. Now, before I go further, let me tell you something about ourse...
The morning of Christmas Eve showed some promise of ending the snow storm. For awhile the sun was even out and brightly shining, but it apparently wouldn't last. More snow expected for later this evening, according to the weather report. Still, since there was sunshine for the moment, the odds of another Shadow attack soon were remote at best. Most Shadow...
It was Saturday morning and I was just returning from dropping James at the airport. He was going to Seattle for a six week seminar. As I pulled into the driveway, the postman pulled up to the mailbox. I met him there and took the letters and bills. Walking in, I shuffled through it and noticed three pieces that looked like cards. Opening them I found that...
'Created in the image of a superior Being.' Part 3 Gloria's husband Greg's sensed his world was coming apart at the seams the day he was let go at work.

You don't need to be spendin...

In itself it was a very straightforward callout, a dripping tap in the ensuite of the master bedroom, should really have taken only half an hour at the most. It was the first callout of the day, barely gone 8am when I knocke...
The honeymoon was as bogus as the wedding had been. The script had been given to me well before hand so that I would be able to play my part so that any observer would only see what they thought was a happily married couple. Gloria was a conspiracy freak and she saw people everywhere whose sole purpose was to prove that she hadn't met the terms of her father...
I died on Christmas Eve. That's right, Christmas Eve. I know, it was a major inconvenience for my family and friends and I'm going to miss them dearly, just as I'm sure they're going to miss me. But, just a few years ago I made a wish for just one thing for Christmas: I wished that should ever find my true love but then met with my demise, on the Christmas...
ONE Sitting reading on the back porch in the late afternoon sun, Maggie Sargeson saw her daughter come around the house; she beamed until noticing Vera was not looking at all happy. "Hullo, darling, called Maggie, tossing a bright greeting hoping to defuse an unhappy tirade. She hoped her son-in-law had not been – what was it Vera called it? - oh yes, desk...
