    No kidding! Hopefully one day she will realize that she is not to blame. That in fact she did good by leaving.

    I bet it's really common with women who've been emotionally (and physically) abused. This was so effectively written, @AudreyFld ! While I was reading it, I felt like I was reading it through Meadow's eyes, and she has such little experience with relationships and people that I end up feeling Meadow's perplexity!

    *Sneaks in from vacation*

    Good news for @MedleyMisty and @Xantheanmar, I have your replies written. (Planes are good for something.)

    Bad news: I have a lot of pictures to take for them, so it might be a bit yet.

    Hiya! Here's a letter from Meadow to Dove: Meadow - Dove 10 (Support systems, anyone? :) I love it when what I'm working on in my life dove-tails with what I write!)

    Thanks! Meadow is a good influence on her...she opens up to Meadow unlike she has with anyone else - including Leroy -even though she has shared a lot with him. :)

    Aack! Can you hear me screaming over here while I'm reading this? SPOILER alert! Wow!

    And, gosh. The emotional content of these letters! It really gets me!

    (And I always end up feeling embarrassed for Norm! LOL!)

    I feel like Norman and Meadow are splashing in the baby wading pool of life while Kaitlin and Newt are out there swimming with the whirlpools and sharks! Oh, boy!

    Also, that spoiler is so awesome! Yay! This plot is really delicious!

    Just posted the weekly update on the Pen Pal Project Blog! I think I got everything? If I missed something, let me know!

    Also please feel free to make corrections or let me know about any corrections that need to be made!

    (Now I'm wondering, "What was I thinking?" when I set up the blog--it's cool, but it's complicated! LOL! Oh, well. Last week my mind zigged--this week it zagged!)

    Haha! Well, I figured poor Norm would be embarrassed!!! I couldn't help it. :blush:

    Yes - a little bit of a spoiler! Haha. But we are going to find that out in my story in a few chapters anyway.

    I love the wading pool vs whirlpool of life! So true. I hope they haven't scared them for life! I do think it interesting that both Newt and Kaitlin talked about the meaning of love and it was something new to them both.

    Glad you enjoyed it! :smiley:

    The blog is great! I just had to learn how to use Wordpress! That is good though. If I do another story I may switch from blogger and this way I can get acquainted with Wordpress. :)

    Dove Singer is looking for pen pals too now! I've posted her full application on Wordpress (blog name InsaneSims), but the out-of-story stuff is here:
    Dove is an Alien currently outposted in San Myshuno, working at FutureSim labs. Her job is, among other things, to collect genetic and environmental information. While she's not going to say so, she will be collecting information from her pen pals to further her research.
    Dove also has some troubles ahead in life- her interests ARE going to change from the purely scientific. I look forward to seeing who she'll meet!

    Is Dove still open for a PenPal? My sim, Marisol, also lives in San Myshuno, but she's so busy with school right now all she does is travel to school and home (oops) I just think it would be a good idea because Marisol is in the grieving stages of having lost her parents to a fire just before she moved, and Dove could use that for her research with Humans maybe? And i'ts okay if she's already got somebody, just asking :)

    Sure! Dove would love another pen pal!

    @Xantheanmar Could you? I'm trying to get my game up again for screenshots of her for the next chapter of TK and my computer freezes up when I've got Sims AND the internet up
