The standard tipple for Jackie after a long day at the call centre though whereas before one would do it was now just the start for the evening.<br /><br />Dutch courage, a coping mechanism, who knows? She stared at the photo of her with a young-looking Jennifer. Her life partner she thought until that fateful visit to the Hunter valley. <br /><br />Hot air balloon ride, artisan cheese, long hot bubble baths and a roll in the hay. Perfect until the wine tasting and visiting sommelier. Taken from her by a French brunette. “c'est bon, n'est-ce pas?”. Indeed…<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16534296921177274379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-35039868365854391672017-06-27T15:39:32.999-07:002017-06-27T15:39:32.999-07:00This is beautiful - I did not see it coming at all...This is beautiful - I did not see it coming at all.

Great premise....That's really beautiful, Lydia. Great premise. The museum sounds very intriguing. <br /><br />Here's my story:<br /><br />After 19 years of marriage, Kyla had discovered something. Herself. She looked at her passport. Time to do something for herself. She tried to imagine Josh's face when he saw her letter. The kids were teenagers. They would cope. The taxi glided away to the airport. She'd never done anything rebellious in her life. The perennial good girl, always pleasing others. Not anymore. Then the panic hit. What was she doing? Her heart was racing. She would have to turn around and go back. Then she remembered something. It was time to push through fear. There was no turning back. <br /><br /><br />Have a great holiday!Nesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06860187504607445377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-87265963062972054432017-06-26T20:48:55.627-07:002017-06-26T20:48:55.627-07:00Now I have to google Museum of Broken Relationship...Now I have to google Museum of Broken Relationships!

Two sets of twins – twin boys and twin girls – each of which had their own perfectly symmetrical families with 8 grandchildren now in the room waiting for cake. Clarissa’s symmetry included a husband whose birthday fell on the same day as her own. She looked to her left and two symmetrical tears rolled down her once symmetrical face. A vacant seat, a vacant heart and an asymmetrical ending. Leanne @ Deep Fried Fruithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00886017636780724635noreply@blogger.com
