It's hard to explain why I love this chapter so much. Even though Ellery is in bed with his rib problem, it still has such a nice, comfortable rhythm and such a sense of serenity about it. I think Jeremy's presence has a lot to do with that. He is such a steady rock and a true friend. It also brought back some nice memories. Those early chapters when Colson put up the bird feeder were always some of my favorites and it was lovely to re-visit that and see him take pleasure and comfort in his little friends.
And I especially love that Jeremy has a chance now to be the one to give advice and support, in the same way Colson supported him when he first met Nick. And what great advice - an out-the-door I love you, a kiss on the cheek, a pat on the ass. Yep, those little things can make a world of difference.
“What the hell do you two get up to that he pops a rib out of his chest?” Jeremy asked, disbelieving.
LOL! And so funny how Ellery kept yelling stuff from the bedroom!
A classic chapter, for sure. Thanks, Louise!

P.S. I'm glad that Colson's been thinking about his conversation with Laura at the motel - too late to take back the words, but it speaks well of how far he's come that it's been weighing on him.

There's nothing much I can add to that. I'm glad I got to read this before we leave (it's 7 am here LOL). Colson and Ellery aren't going anywhere, so we decided to do the holiday-ing in their place. It's a tough job, I know ;D
We'll be back next tuesday. I hope Ellery's rib will be better by then! :)
Thanks Louise, for a great chapter!
louisev:
well now that you all know I do foreshadowing, you won't be in the least surprised at some of the things that come next!
And yes I hope to be writing again tonight! Some of the mental pressure is off at work and it is allowing me to think a bit more clearly.
louisev:
and the next chapter 63!!
