Baby Gurl Blondie
On Sunday, the girls and I met a friend of ours at my ex's house to haul away the girls' Ford Escapes, which we can no longer afford to fix. My ex had threatened to give them away to someone, instead of waiting for us to move them when we could, even though they were his daughters' rigs. Instead of letting someone have them for nothing, I decided to allow a friend to haul them to a junkyard for half the money.

Moving.... Top Story - September 2025.
No one ever said that moving would be easy. You have to pack all your stuff and load everything into the moving vehicles. Then, after driving to the new location, you have to unload and unpack everything at the new location. While making sure not to forget to clean both houses as you go along. Plus, having to change your address and or phone number with EVERYONE.

I know I've been absent a lot here lately
Lately, I've been absent a lot from both Vocal and ViM. Many of my closest friends know and understand why I have been, but there are several who are probably wondering what's going on with Ol' Mother Combs. Whether I am alive or dead, or if I just gave up altogether on writing. Well, let me update my fans and readers on what's been happening lately in my life.

ViM's Bulletin Board
We've been busy behind the scenes at ViM. Running here and there. Signing papers for this place, taking pictures for that one. Packing bags and loading boxes. While I'm preparing for a move into a new-to-me house on the other side of town, Celia and River are dealing with the stress of traveling to a different country. Plus the animals. Both of us, ViM admins, were blessed with a love for our furbabies, so of course, we have to include them in our plans.

PARASITIC RELATIONSHIPS
Picking up my purse, I prepared to leave the strange flat. Looking around at my unfamiliar surroundings, I soon found something untraceable that I wanted. I grabbed the stones I saw inside a bowl on the side table, and then noticed last night's Fling’s wallet beside the bowl.

What's the Poop
I'm sure everyone has seen The Help by now and remembers the iconic pie scene. (Which, by the way, the book was so much better, as always.) For those that haven't, you don't know what you're missing. Seriously, it's on the Roku Channel right now, go and watch it if you haven't. Then come back and read this.

Here I Go Again
Hello, my fellow Vocalites. My name is Sharon Combs, but many of you know me as Mother Combs or MC. Some of you may have even read a story or poem of mine; perhaps several of my writings have been perused by a few. I come before you to confess to each of you that I now have a problem.
