Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that I'm still here and that I haven't forgotten about you lovelies or this story and after receiving some reviews, I thought you all deserved some explanation about why I've been gone for so long.

In the last three and a half months I've had to put my childhood dog to sleep, my mom had brain surgery, both sides of my family lost their matriarchs, and my community college 'misplaced' a ton of my credits which resulted in my having to stay an additional semester and play telephone tag with the heads of various departments.

Needless to say I've had a lot of stress and shit on my plate to deal with, but I have not forgotten about you guys. You all and this story mean so much to me and I promise that I will finish it. All I ask for is just a little more patience while I go back through the next chapters and get everything sorted out and back on track.

I'll keep to the Monday update schedule but since I don't have to worry about college until the fall again, I'll try to work out another update day (most likely during the weekend).

I hope you guys had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and until next time,
