New Greenlea Tale: The Grey Girls

SPOILERS
Let me see if I'm following the sequence of events correctly....Laura left the first note at Colson and Ellery's, then went to see Paula, and then went to the Browns where she left the second note, before she went back to the motel and Wes served her with the restraining order, and now she's, presumably, on her way back to Prescott. Do I have that right? And when Laura talks about "smiles and kind words" is she referring to Edna and Paula?
Ack! This is very frustrating. I'm itching to jump into the story and do....something! If only Laura could see that she's only making Colson (and Ellery!) look like heroes in the girls' eyes. It's at the point where history is going to be revised in their minds so that their daddy was never at fault for anything that went wrong in the marriage.
As far as Colson fretting that he doesn't have anything good to say - I vote that he doesn't say anything more at all to the girls about Laura, good or bad. If he needs to vent, he should do it outside of the girls' presence. There should be plenty of conversation to be had about the girls' move.
Speaking of the move - I'm relieved on Wes and Edna's behalf (and Colson's and Ellery's). At the risk of sounding uncharitable, the girls' immaturity is sitting on my last nerve and I think it can only help for them to be in their own apartment and back in college where they won't be so concerned with Daddy and Uncle Ellery.
And am I reading too much into it, or is there more behind Edna's tears than what we've been told? Even though it seemed to have fallen on deaf ears, I was glad to hear her speak of compassion.
Well, you can tell by my rambling that you're doing your job well, Louise! LOL!
Thanks,
Marie

it is always great to read your comments, Marie, and yes, the 'Smiles and kind words' were Laura's comments about Edna and Paula that day, she most likely wrote the note as she was leaving the ranch and before she returned to the motel.
I'm glad you liked the format change on LJ today, I noticed that the fonts looked different (i.e not so good) so I looked through the available formats and selected one that I thought would be easy on the eyes.
And yes, it is time for the girls to get back to their own lives, and for Colson and Ellery to get on with their own lives -- and their own relationship.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr@that bloody f*****g woman!!!!!! . Can I have a walk on part Louise just so I can give her a black eye? If she ends up alone with no one and her daughters never speak to her again she has no one to blame but herself. She,s just a nasty spiteful bitter twisted old crone. >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

Just to clear things up a bit... the note Colson found in the tack room was left by Laura when she was at the ranch, before she returned to the motel, and before she was served with the restraining order.
So no, she didn't violate the restraining order.
And Soux, while it might make for some excitement in Tourmaline, I think an enraged Englishwoman might not fit in too well unless it"s Jeeves' sister from across the sea!
