This will turn out so poorly.  I'm not sure someone under are like this can sign a POA, specifically because  her mom just tricked her. This will blow up in their faces.  Michael, get ready for very short pencils and the rare crayon. 

Ted's funny.

That's a reunion that went better than expected.   Ted and Brandonbare the cutest.  Ted just needs to own his sexy.  Bran and Blake were not flukes.

Poor Mel , has happy people problems.  Poor Miles has love sick people problems. Ted relax, Brandon loves you.  It really doesn't matter how you marry as long as you are happy with your choices. Poor Brian and Justin, they just need time to more sex, lol.

Michael needs a brain transplant - stat.  Some are so stupid, you just have to give up. 

Give Hanna a Cinnabon, then she will understand and sweets.  It's always nice to see a convert. 

This was sad to me.  The whole stupid drunken Mikey thing, juxtaposed against Craig who was bad but now is not, is hopeful tho. If Craig can change Mikey can.  Things are looking up, we've got hope.

I'm going to miss this story.  I have to limit my reading these days, and this one always got me going. 

Very nice ending.  Brava!!

This was a really good chapter.  Everyone faced a fear and overcame it, even the wicked Debbie.  They are miles away from the sadness and desperation at the beginning, I'm so happy.  All of them are doing well.

I like this because I think this story is magical or maybe I mean spritual? It's about being in the right place mentally and physically, and how one or the other off balance can cause great read terrible result.  I'm lovin it!!!

 This is horrible awful, terrible sad and dud I say horrible? That goodness these poor people gave each other. Suffering alone, is double the pain.  Together they can find strength they never knew. Poor Gus, hang in sweetie, I know it gets better.

So happy, Michael knows the inside of a jail intimately..

Thanks for the newest story. :)

Oh see, told ya Gus it's already better.  You gave a new baby, that's huge for a trip to the parkl. Brian being assertive awesome, Justin needed to be rescued and with Brian's past it might not have happened.  This is going to be wonderful!

Poor dead Jen.  Molly, I didn't really know.

Heartbreaking...Brian, you poor caring man.  I already want to jump in the story and kick some a$$.  I'm so happy Justin is wonderful and patient.  That's going to make the triumph so much sweeter.  Hang in there Gus, it passes I promise, sweet one. 

Can i just say Alex is awesome? Alex is awesome!

Daphne!! An in house shrink! This us very good for our shell shocked family.  Ted, you poor dear.  Yes we all want the one we love to love us, but there's nothing we can do.  You're worth trying for more happiness.  It doesn't have to be someone else. Start smal. Have a candy bar, just let Michael go.

This is so emotional, you've got us hooked.

Ted is everyone of us who has ever lost at love, it's not that they didn't love you, it's that's you can't believe you were wrong.  He keeps giving Michael his number because he wants to see the man he loved still in their somewhere.  Usually, they aren't because they never existed.   His ease with talking with Justin makes sense.  Justin is the PTSD Whisperer, lol.

Shelly tells off Deb is hysterical.  Throwing a wrench in their program, lovely.

Having Alex give the history was a good choice.  The exposition versus the scenes keeps the focus on the happier part of the story. A very sad chapter ended with a hopeful thought, very nice authoress! im just worried about the showdown, but not really.  We will win, I would rather miss the pain.  The Pitts crew is the pits.

Poor Ted, testifying cleanses the soul. You will come out the other side dear. Justin has an instant family, lol.  Brian and Gus have a crush. The Pitts crew sucks butt, majorly.

Justin had Brian's baby!! That's why he said the baby looked like him.  Oh riots a wonderful serendipitous situation. Yay!!! Lindsay grabbing the sperm would have been very very bad.

Let's start with Vic, Brian has every right to feel disappointed with Vic. Vic should feel ashamed, like Ivanka, he's complicit, lol. But, sense he didn't help jus chances for change are greater. 

Little Lilly, so lucky, Gus is going to be an awesome big brother.  I'm not sure how Justin will react.  Fate, luck, the gods or stupid Cupid has set these wheels in motion.  If they can make it through the bumps we are that much better.

That went well. Justin is going to need to bend a bit, Brian us going to do things for Lilly.  Gus maybe be too young to understand, but when he doe he will be thrilled. 

Deb, you need to learn to listen.

On behalf of Deb, Mikey, Linds and Mel, please allow me to say, "oh sh!t!" Lol way to take it to the CJ.  I'm very curious how things will go when they meet his wife.

Carl still hpgets the sexy points.  Joan, second chances do usually happen.  Justin I know you jet a stranger in the park and ... But look, the dates, Godspeed, whatever is drawing you two together.  You can't fight a tidal wave.
