    “Its been along time since you had a Kennard Thanksgiving and with all respect – this is a new family and a whole new dynamic. I am delighted you are going to be spending Thanksgiving with us and you are always welcome but this is mine and Tina’s home and our family. We are trying to create new traditions and that’s not easy. Tina doesn’t like lamb and neither do I. For me it’s the taste – just cannot handle the taste but I don’t think that’s the problem for Tina. Maybe she associates it with pre-Thanksgiving dinners at home – a home she left because she felt she wasn’t wanted any more”
    Mary looked flustered “I never – I never thought “
    “This is bound to happen while we all get used to one another and this is no one’s fault”
    Bette said reassuringly
    “I just wanted us all to have a Thanksgiving like we used to “
    “Do you really think that is possible ?” Bette asked
    Mary sighed and threw the cookie mix packet onto the counter
    “I have messed this up haven’t I ? I just wanted “
    “Mary – you are not God – you cannot turn the clock back and I have found that its unwise to even try. That part of your lives is over – this is the new phase and we all have to work at making it happen. Tina looks really miserable – she was so looking forward to making Thanksgiving dinner for all of us – you should let her”
    “She didn’t say “ Mary began
    “You are her mom – and she has to get used to be a grown up daughter and that is going to mean she tells you to get the hell out of her kitchen “
    Bette was smiling and trying to keep her tone as light as possible
    “I want the best relationship possible with her – with all of you “
    “So do we – you cannot recreate the past and the future is uncertain- lets just live for here and now. You can get on with the lamb and Tina and I will get ready and go out a little earlier than we planned – nobody loses face and more for Jack – maybe Sheba might be interested and Angie should have “ gannet “ as her middle name”
    “I am sorry Bette “
    “No harm done Mary -just remember that when you were Tina’s age how would you have felt if your mom had tried to take over dinner “
    “I was really unlucky – it was my mother in law trying to tell me I didn’t look after her precious son well enough – that ended with a lot of rows “
    “I don’t want a row – I just want to see Tina for the adult she is- she is nervous about tomorrow because she wants to get it right. So offer your help and let her dictate what she wants you to do. We will get it right”
    Bette took Mary’s hand and squeezed it “We are going to get this right Mary I promise”
    “I hope so – I don’t want to lose her a second time “
    “You won’t “
    Bette pulled the older woman closer and gave her a hug “Things will be fine”
    After reassuring Mary Bette left the kitchen
    “Right – Jack – you are officially in charge of Angie and Sheba – Tina and I are off to get ready to go out – come on Tina”
    Tina got up and looked towards the kitchen – she took Bette’s offered outstretched hand.
    Bette indicated that she shouldn’t say anything until they were alone. Once they got into their bedroom Tina faced Bette
    “What happened ?”
    “I got us out of eating lamb “
    “I can’t stand the stuff “
    “Does it remind you of pre-Thanksgiving dinner at the old homestead ?”
    “It reminds me of hating lamb at the old homestead – Louise loves it and what mommy and daddy’s little accident wanted – she got – anyway so what happened ?”
    “I just pointed out that you are an adult and we need a grown up relationship – not one where they treat you like a 14 year kid “
    Bette had wondered if Tina would get cross with her but she put her arms around her and kissed her on the lips
    “Thank you – I love you “
    “I love you as well – now lets get dressed and get out of here – you can treat me to a hotdog for dinner – you owe me “
    “For getting me out of dinner – you can have two “

      • Congratulations on your promotion AllyE that is great news. Something tells me that you will love the change and getting to see new places and especially new people, (like new lady people). That could prove to be a very good thing for you. Again congratulations. This was a great update, been hoping for one. Its good that Bette talked to Tinas’ mother, it really was necessary and I will be happy when she broaches the subject of, “if only Tina had told them,” that will be a conversation worth hearing, or shall I say reading and is very long overdue. I know you will introduce that topic without getting many feathers ruffled. The parents have not really thought this through but have abdicated their responsibilities onto Tinas’ shoulders which is grossly unfair. “I have an idea and it might sound crazy,” but since you will not be able to write very much while traveling, maybe you will be able to post those completed chapters of “Something Kind of Wonderful and Something So Right.” Just an idea to let us keep hearing from you and the wonderful stories that we all love. Hello and an ear scratch for Lord Rockingham this Sunday morning. Thanks for taking the time to post.

    3. Ally you are the best, thank you for another post on this great story. My favourite characters, communicating, plus a shout out for my favourite performer, the wonderful Dame Shirley!

      Congratulations on your promotion, well deserved I’m sure. Perhaps your travelling could be such to enable you to write?

      Look forward to the next Chapter.

    4. I love this story very much. I was looking forward to a new update.
      Bette is right, Tina and her parents must move from the past or the relationship will not work now either.
      I’m glad Bette talked about Mary, and she wasn’t afraid to tell her opinion.
      I hope Bette good decision and not take herself and Tina in the first line of battle Kit. I understand that she will always be her sister, but Kit behaved terribly towards Bette and Tina, and Kit must learn to take responsibility for her own actions.
      I’m looking forward to the next chapter.

    6. Congratulations on promotion and new phase in your life. Hope it allows you to keep updating your stories. My week ins not complete without an Ally story. I love them so much. Thanks for the update.

    7. Congratulations on your new position ! May only good things come along with it !
      Glad to see they’re (all) talking things through! And as someone else mentioned – you could always pull something off the shelf, if your time is limited. Little R should be able to hit enter by now !!! >^~~^<

    9. Well dang Miss AllyE…I shor’ appreciate yor writin’ yessum I do…You have a special way of writing that wants me to keepa’ readin’..awesome!….boom!…oh yeah and congrats on yur promotion…well deserved!…keepa’ writin’ Missy…don’t stay away too long..ya hear?…xoxo

    11. It is so difficult to say something, when the others already said it.

      Congratulations to your promotion, can i feel a little bit sorry for us, your loyal readers, that you can’t write so often! But seriously, i am very happy for you!

      It is mentioned already, i would love it when you can share you finished chapters on your other stories.

    14. I really enjoyed Bette attitude to Mary, I believe
      that after the conversation they had, Mary has more respect
      with Tina.
      It’s great that you have a promotion
      this is the result of their dedication to their work.
      congratulations
      10 Stars.

    15. I am glad Bette pulled up her “big girl” pants and set Mary straight. Tina’s parents want to rewrite the past at her expense. It is so sad that Kit has fallen prey to the bottle again. I am sure that she is feeling remorse for the way she has treated Bette and is using alcohol to justify her anger. Poor Roger has not a clue and Alice is hardly a rocket scientist. I don’t think Bette will turn her back on her sister though. Congratulations on your promotion. I’m sure Sir Rocky is giving you lots of purrs for your step up.

    16. just so you know, incidentally am reading this story from the beggining and on chapters 5&6 you wrote all 3 of them hate lamb.

      congratulations! (for the step up)

    20. Hey ally. I know you can disappear for awhile but this has been a long time. I hope all is we’ll and you are just to busy to write. Hope to see a chapter from you soon.
