[QUOTE="Karin, post: 88807, member: 57167"] Thank you everyone for the detailed feedback. It's much appreciated as always. :thank: [B]Ms Southworth, [/B]I am glad you thought the new scenes were in character. :) I don't know if Patricia is meant to be funny or not but I do find her hilarious at times. She didn't do a good job raising her daughters in a way where she taught them to only aspire to be someone's wife and a mother. There's nothing wrong with being a wife and a mother. But the fact that Sue Ellen's whole life revolved around being Mrs. JR Ewing and how she felt like she was nothing without him sure was problematic. I did have a great weekend thank you. :bh: True that JR hasn't taken an active part in John Ross upbringing in the last four years. But I've heard somewhere that ages 1-7 are the most formative years and he was there for most of those. Anyway I think it's safe to say that JR has had an influence over his son despite their four years as estranged. Honkytonkangel, I love it how you call Patricia a witch. You are right JR was not a fine man where his marriage was concerned. But yeah me too prefer JR & Sue Ellen to Don & Sue Ellen. Then as for myself, I wouldn't want to date men like JR or Don as I don't think either one of them is a catch! :giggle: But yeah you are right Sue Ellen has gotten a lot stronger and now your comment made me think of a JR/SE video I made some time ago to a Cher song where she sings about "being strong enough to live without you"...great song. :dance: [B]Sanda, [/B]oh yeah Becky doesn't have it easy with Mario that's for sure. Actually you will find out today how it will go when Mitch will try to talk to Afton... Oh and btw I love the new banner that [USER=379]@Tina Ewing[/USER] made you. :) [B]Presea,[/B] you have nothing to apologize for. John Ross is acting like a horndog at times and as an adult I can understand why you find that behavior repulsive. Or well come to think about it I think lots of teenage girls find that behavior repulsive too. :( But well I guess we've been inspired a bit by Dallas TNT when we rewrote the story and on that show John Ross was portrayed as a ladie's man who was actually a lot like his father. I think your assumption that the original couples will get back together eventually are pretty spot on. Although there might be some surprises along the way that you haven't counted on. ;) Good that you find Kurt being a reporter interesting. :) I'm glad that you like tea too. I much prefer it to coffee! Okay so it's time for an [B]update: [/B] Monday morning, Mitch and Becky were sitting on the patio outside of Southfork as they were waiting for Afton to come and pick up Becky. “There’s her car!” Becky pointed towards the driveway where a red Dodge pulled up. Mitch and Becky got up. Mitch picked up Becky’s bag and walked towards the car. Afton got out and hugged Becky, “Hi sweetie, have you had a good weekend?” “It was alright,” Becky said and took her bag from Mitch. “Thank you Uncle Mitch,” Becky hugged Mitch. “Anytime kiddo,” Mitch said. Becky then went to sit in the car and Afton turned to her brother and said, “Thank you so much for taking care of Becky while I was away.” “No problem, she’s a great kid,” Mitch said. “I know, so see ya,” Afton made a motion to leave. But Mitch stopped her by saying, “So when were you going to tell me about your engagement?” “What?” Afton’s chin dropped, as she came to a halt looking at Mitch. “How did you know about that?” Mitch sighed. [I]Crap, it’s true.[/I] Mitch tried to stay calm before he went on. “In case you haven’t noticed your daughter is very upset!” “Mitch all kids get upset when they get a step-parent. She’ll get used to it!” “So does that mean that [I]I’ll[/I] have to get used to him as well?” “Mitch, are you saying that you don’t like Mario?” Mitch sighed, “I’m just saying that he makes Cliff Barnes look good!” Afton crossed her arms saying, “That’s unfair! Cliff and Mario are nothing alike. You’ll see that once you’ll get to know Mario better!” “I’m not sure I want to get to know him better!” “Well as far as I’m concerned, you really don’t have a choice. He’s my fiancé and that’s [I]not[/I] gonna change!” Afton got into the car and Mitch sighed as he watched her drive away with screaming tires. [/QUOTE]
