Bernice answered, "congratulations, Bill, everything seems to be falling into place for you, but, a word of caution". Bill cut in, "please, Bernice, no threats, i'm too old to be threatened, all I...
Two days to go and Bill was wondering how to spend them. Tuesday he would play bridge in a neighbouring community....and then what (?) three hours out of more than sixty is not a big chunk. He...
I've been watching, on and off, the play-off game between Pittsburg and Ottawa. A lot of the time when I am home the hearing aids are taken out so wasn't paying a lot of attention to what was said....
Winnie said, "is your Marg not talking to me,(?) I mean it is not as if I know her but I would have thought she would have told me about the kid, Cornelius, instead of Nola, anyway, it seems she...
Eight o'clock in the evening, the time when Bill is to call Marg. The phone rang and Marg looked at it then looked at Nola who was looking at her. Nola shrugged, said, "it is up to you, your move",...
Nola and Marg were in the living room when Bernice called. Nola had answered the phone and Bernice had said to her, "Bill is at my front door, waiting until I am finished with this call, then he...
Bill is thinking; a good mood(?) yes, definitely; buoyant(?), without question. A nip in the air felt good, going to be a good winter; he and Marg were going to be fine, wonderful, happy, a twosome...
Bill was out of bed before seven marked time until eight and felt eight was a good time to talk with Bernice; he called and left a message on the machine. Half eight and he listened to a busy signal...
But Marg couldn't sleep, called Bernice and the first thing Bernice said, "you been drinking" ? and Marg started giggling, "oh, yes, my little sister has had a few" and this brought on more giggling...
Bill picked up on the second ring, he thought, "Marg" and a minute later was regretting being right. His "hello" was answered by Marg, "well, and how is the big man on campus, big asshole more than...
The site has a huge number of threads. The figure for gegabytes of information is mind boggling. Would trimming be an option(?), I really don't know but if it is I would be the last person to do...

Bill's mind was all over the place; memories, memories to be enjoyed, to be grateful for. Also thoughts of the present; MARG, damn but it felt so good, so easy to be with, so comfortable and so open:...
Bill was not asleep, not even in bed. Playing on his computer his freecell streak had just gone back to zero when the phone rang; his "hello" was answered by Nola. "We didn't get around to calling...
Bill was starting to wonder. He had left a number of messages on Nola's phone but no return call and no one had picked up; he was hoping for a response before Winnie called. Seven o'clock came and...
Lottie opened the container which Paul had provided, said, "there's more stuff than I thought". She looked over the contents and suggested they move to the kitchen table. Lottie emptied the container...
Our three ladies, comfortably full of good food, thoughts of an after dinner drink changed to talk of the same but none knew what to buy. Nola said, "just a thought but Ray might be home and how...
Bill said, "you do that, but before you go I must say I am glad you called, you sound, ehm, happy". Winnie laughed, said, "you mean, not crazy, not like I was, c'mon Bill, you knew there was...
Winnie drove home, the garage door opened by the magic eye, a manservant waited to take charge of the husband. After each hockey practice they attended, the routine seldom varied; home, Winnie...
The siren ended the skating lesson. Marg and the two coaches were changing their footwear and the boys from Marg's group raised their sticks and yelled, "yeah Marg", then each gave her a high five....
Winnie, and that was definitely her name, ordered two coffees, one black and one she had to add milk to. She was close to the table occupied by Nola and Lottie, Lottie said, "hello, is the man in the...
Most arenas use the fifty minute hour for practices and this small rink in Nepean was no exception. The ten minutes is when the ice is re-surfaced and Marg sat to get her skates on. The trousers she...
Talking with Ray on the phone had given Bill a good feeling; what Ray would decide might not be what Bill would want but it would be a step in the right direction. Talking with Bernice was another...
Marg was starting to wonder about time, she wanted to hear about Lottie's meal and whatever went with it. She looked at Nola and said, "I really have to get ready, the last session was cancelled and...
