Passions flare between an older woman and her summer hire.Based on a post by dark overlord 6, in 4 parts. Listen to the ► Podcast at Connected. David's Disrupted LifeBeing awoken by his alarm clock was usually bad enough. When his mother got in on the act it was often decidedly worse. On this particular morning, David Cross enjoyed the distinct displeasure of both things happening. The first, because even though he had graduated the night prior, he had forgotten to switch the alarm off and it did its duty by trying to wake him for a non-existent school day. The latter, because he had left his cell phone sitting on the kitchen counter after staggering in from a graduation party at four a.m."David! This silly thing has rung at least four times in the last hour. Why don't you try answering it!" snapped his annoyed mother after she burst into his room unannounced."Jesus, Mom! What time is it?" he grumbled from beneath the covers."11:00 A.M., and high time you got up," she replied, tossing the phone onto his bed and going over to raise his blinds."Holy crap!" moaned David, who caught a burst of sunlight even through the sheet covering his eyes."David! Language!""Sorry; "His mother moved off, muttering to herself what sounded like a list of grocery items.David stayed in his bed and slowly lowered the covers. He drew in a breath as his eyes adjusted to the light feeling the urge to continue sleeping drain away. The phone on the bed seemed heavier than usual, as he lifted it in one hand just in time for it to ring loudly, nearly startling him into dropping it. The name flashing on the display said "Christopher Michaels," and David answered the call with a sigh."Good news travels fast," said David in a voice still tinged with exhaustion."So it's true," came the voice from the other side of the call.The voice belonged to one of his best friends, and the only one not to attend the party the previous night."How are you taking it?" Chris asked."How am I taking my girlfriend of almost three years, dumping me on graduation night, for the guy I hate the most on the planet? Gosh, I don't know, Chris, how do you think?""I know, that was seriously cold. She could have at least waited until after the party."David's heart, already seeming like a led weight in his chest, gained a few more ounces, sinking toward his feet."Yeah, I had to stand there and pretend like it wasn't bothering me while she and Alex hung all over each other."His mind drifted back to the festivities he had attended after graduation. Everything had started wonderfully. The party had been thrown at his friend Stacie's house. Her parents had a gigantic, multi-story dwelling just outside the city, and after the usual dull high school graduation ceremony at Randolph High, seemingly everyone he knew had gathered there to celebrate. It should have been the pinnacle of his young life, but within a short time of his arrival, the whole thing had gone down the tubes in a big way.He had been standing in Stacie's large backyard, talking to her about her plans for the summer, when his girlfriend, Heather Andrews, arrived. She was looking beautiful as always, her curly blond hair falling around a small, round face highlighted by a cute upturned nose, and brilliant blue eyes. They had been dating ever since hooking up for the first time the summer before their sophomore year."Excuse me, Stacie." he had said, politely stepping away from her and going over to join Heather on the back porch. Stacie's parents had set up several tables covered with snacks, and Heather stood by the bean dip, looking at him nervously as he approached."Hey, Gorgeous. Where have you been all my life?"This ridiculous come on would ordinarily have rated at least a small giggle from his usually gregarious girlfriend, but tonight she only frowned."David; I wanted to talk to you before the party, but you left the graduation so fast.""Sorry about that. Kevin needed a ride and wanted to stop by his parents so he could change before we came over here," he explained while moving closer, trying to get his arms around his girlfriend's waist even as she slipped back a step, avoiding his move."Is there something wrong?" he asked, not understanding her sudden skittishness around him."David, I wanted to tell you this in private, before the party. You know; I care a lot about you.""You love me. That's what you've always said," cut in David."I do love you, but.""But?" said David raising an eyebrow while a feeling of dread started to spread through his body."I; We; didn't mean for it to happen, but we got put on this project for Economics, and we started to spend so much time together. One thing led to another.""Wait! Who are we talking about? Did you meet someone else? What's going on here?""David; I."Before Heather could explain further, a third person joined them on the porch. He was taller than David by a couple of inches, which was saying something because David himself was six-foot-one. The other boy had tight, curly black hair with a dark complexion, consistent with his Italian heritage; and an arrogant smile that David had considered knocking off his face more than once."I hope I'm not interrupting anything?""This is a private conversation, Alex," snapped David before Heather could answer.Alex Romero had been a teammate of David's on the Randolph High School swim team, but the two had never become friends. They had been rivals for years, competing for team captain, and for medals at events around the state. David had gotten the upper hand more often than not; much to Alex's displeasure. It didn't help matters that Alex came from a wealthy family and wasn't above flaunting his privilege. For his eighteenth birthday, his parents had bought him a Porsche. It was used, but still, it annoyed David that he had been forced to work to afford his clunker of a car, while Alex had his handed to him on a platter."Alex, would you give us a minute," said Heather in a placating tone."Sure, I'll be over here," he said with a grin.David's eyes grew wider as the other boy moved off."No! Please, for the love of God, Heather, tell me it's not Alex!""I'm sorry, David, like I said it just happened. You know, you've been so busy lately with your job and clubs and stuff. We've hardly seen each other for the past four months.""So this is all my fault? I told you I wasn't going to work this summer so we could spend more time together, but I needed to save money before then. Jesus, Heather! How come you didn't come to me before this and tell me you weren't happy?""I tried, but you always brushed me off with some excuse about how you would make more time for us, but then you never did.""So you jump into Alex's arms? We've been together for almost three years!""I know. I'm sorry, David. I don't know what to say. The heart wants what it wants.""Are you fucking kidding me! I can't believe you're falling back on the most cliché line in the book!"Alex was suddenly back at Heather's side, glaring at David."You need to stay cool, Cross. I don't want to see you yelling at Heather," he said menacingly."Oh! This is so classic. You can't beat me in the pool, so you snake my girlfriend behind my back," shouted David.The two boys glowered at each other while Heather looked around uncomfortably not sure how to diffuse the situation she had sparked."If you had been treating her right, she would still be your girlfriend," growled Alex."Fuck you, Romero.""I may not have beaten you in the pool, but I'm about to beat your ass on this porch!" said Alex tightly."Guys! Can't we discuss this inside." said Heather quietly with fear in her eyes.It looked as if the two young men were going to come to blows, but the crisis was averted when Stacie's father appeared on the porch alerted by some of the other kids that trouble was brewing."Everything okay out here?" asked the older man looking down at the two boys. Stacie's dad was a former Marine and very intimidating. David looked away, barely concealing his anger."Fine; just fine; " he grumbled."Heather and I were just going inside to try some of that delicious-looking cake your wife made," answered Alex slipping his arm around Heather's waist and guiding her toward the back door. All David could do was watch them go feeling helpless his fun graduation night sinking like the Titanic."It's a good thing Stacie's dad showed up. I can only imagine the carnage that was about to ensue," came Chris's voice jerking David back to the present."Yeah, I was so ready to knock that moron on his ass.""Well; Look at it this way you guys were probably going to break up by the end of the summer anyway. Heather is going out of state to college, and you're still planning on attending city college, right?""We could have made a long-distance thing work," offered David."Said every jilted college freshman ever; " replied Chris."Thanks for trying to make me feel better. I hope you don't plan to become a therapist because you suck at it.""I hear you, Man. I know you're hurting right now, but think about how much fun it could be to be a free agent this summer. We could hit Wave World and check out the babes!"David grimaced at the name. Wave World was about the only attraction worth attending in their small town, a local run water park that featured numerous slides and a lazy river as well as the wave pool that gave the park its name. David had worked there two previous summers. It was also the place he and Heather had hooked up for the first time, so it now held a bittersweet spot in his heart."You do know Wave World is where Heather and I met, right?""I was there, of course I know that, but it's also the best place to meet someone new.""I don't know, Chris. Let's see how the summer goes, and we'll fall off that bridge when we get there.""Don't let this thing with Heather taint things for you, David," cautioned his friend."I hear ya.""I have to go. Chin up, Buddy!""Right; " said David cutting the connection.He sighed tossing the phone aside, staring up at the ceiling."What a shitty way to start the summer," he grumbled under his breath.He got out of bed a short time later conscious of the fact that if he didn't, his mom was going to come looking for him again. A quick shower chased out some of the cobwebs, and he managed to force a smile onto his face as he joined his family for lunch.David's mom and dad were already at the table. His father, William Cross, Bill to his friends, was an accountant who worked at the High Rock nuclear plant outside of town. A tall man with thinning hair and a face that always seemed to be on the verge of a frown, David's dad watched his son pull up a chair while stirring the steaming bowl of stew in front of him."Got in kind of late last night," noted Bill Cross as his son settled himself."It was graduation night," replied David as if that summed up everything."Yeah; How was the party at Stacie's?""Fine," said David shoveling a large bite of stew into his mouth to preclude any follow-up questions about it."I thought you looked so handsome in your cap and gown last night. I can't wait to post the pictures," said David's mom, Joyce, as she joined them at the table.David winced at the thought. He had felt he looked particularly dorky in the outfit himself."Are you off today?" asked David not used to his dad home on a Friday."Doctors appointment this morning, but I'll probably take the rest of the day off and get the oil changed in the car. It's too far to drive into work this late."David nodded, knowing that the plant lay forty miles outside of town for safety reasons. It made for a long commute for his Dad, who usually left for work at the crack of dawn."Who was calling you all morning?" asked his mom."Chris; He didn't make the party last night, but wanted to hang out this weekend.""Best get some fun in this weekend before work starts up for you on Monday," said his dad as he lifted a glass of water to his lips."Right; I thought next week I might hit Wave World; Wait; What did you say? What work?""I have good news for you, Son. I got you a summer job, working as a paid intern in the Office Services department at the plant."David slowly lowered his spoon, "You did what? This is my last summer to hang out with my friends! How am I going to do that if I'm working forty miles out in the middle of nowhere?""It's time to grow up, David. You're eighteen and graduated from school. It's high time you got a taste of working a real job; not lounging in a chair watching girls in bikini's stroll by," said Bill Cross referring to David's usual summer employment as a lifeguard at Wave World."Dad! Come on! This isn't fair. You could have at least asked me what I wanted to do!""Like you would have said, 'Yes,' to working ten hours shifts from six a.m. to five p.m. all week for the summer? Not to mention you

Wave World was about the only attraction worth attending in their small town, a local run water park that featured numerous slides and a lazy river as well as the wave pool that gave the park its name. David had worked there two previous summers. It was also the place he and Heather had hooked up for the first time, so it now held a bittersweet spot in his heart."You do know Wave World is where Heather and I met, right?""I was there, of course I know that, but it's also the best place to meet someone new.""I don't know, Chris. Let's see how the summer goes, and we'll fall off that bridge when we get there.""Don't let this thing with Heather taint things for you, David," cautioned his friend."I hear ya.""I have to go. Chin up, Buddy!""Right; " said David cutting the connection.He sighed tossing the phone aside, staring up at the ceiling."What a shitty way to start the summer," he grumbled under his breath.He got out of bed a short time later conscious of the fact that if he didn't, his mom was going to come looking for him again. A quick shower chased out some of the cobwebs, and he managed to force a smile onto his face as he joined his family for lunch.David's mom and dad were already at the table. His father, William Cross, Bill to his friends, was an accountant who worked at the High Rock nuclear plant outside of town. A tall man with thinning hair and a face that always seemed to be on the verge of a frown, David's dad watched his son pull up a chair while stirring the steaming bowl of stew in front of him."Got in kind of late last night," noted Bill Cross as his son settled himself."It was graduation night," replied David as if that summed up everything."Yeah; How was the party at Stacie's?""Fine," said David shoveling a large bite of stew into his mouth to preclude any follow-up questions about it."I thought you looked so handsome in your cap and gown last night. I can't wait to post the pictures," said David's mom, Joyce, as she joined them at the table.David winced at the thought. He had felt he looked particularly dorky in the outfit himself."Are you off today?" asked David not used to his dad home on a Friday."Doctors appointment this morning, but I'll probably take the rest of the day off and get the oil changed in the car. It's too far to drive into work this late."David nodded, knowing that the plant lay forty miles outside of town for safety reasons. It made for a long commute for his Dad, who usually left for work at the crack of dawn."Who was calling you all morning?" asked his mom."Chris; He didn't make the party last night, but wanted to hang out this weekend.""Best get some fun in this weekend before work starts up for you on Monday," said his dad as he lifted a glass of water to his lips."Right; I thought next week I might hit Wave World; Wait; What did you say? What work?""I have good news for you, Son. I got you a summer job, working as a paid intern in the Office Services department at the plant."David slowly lowered his spoon, "You did what? This is my last summer to hang out with my friends! How am I going to do that if I'm working forty miles out in the middle of nowhere?""It's time to grow up, David. You're eighteen and graduated from school. It's high time you got a taste of working a real job; not lounging in a chair watching girls in bikini's stroll by," said Bill Cross referring to David's usual summer employment as a lifeguard at Wave World."Dad! Come on! This isn't fair. You could have at least asked me what I wanted to do!""Like you would have said, 'Yes,' to working ten hours shifts from six a.m. to five p.m. all week for the summer? Not to mention you

With narrow profit margins, grocers and other small businesses are bearing the brunt of poorly thought-out laws while politicians point fingers at so-called "price gouging."

In this special Thanksgiving episode of the Garden Question Podcast, host Craig McManus gathers a heartwarming array of guests from previous episodes to share their gratitude for the beauty, growth, and joys that gardening brings to their lives. Notable guests including Diane Blazek, Nathan Wilson, Heather Andrews, Erin Alladen, Carol Michel, Bill Strock, Kirk Brown, Brent Heath, Dan Benarsik, Kathy Gentz, Russell Camp, Mike Cunningham, David Roberts, and Shelly Cramm express their thanks for the horticultural community, the people in their gardens, and the personal and environmental benefits that gardening bestows. The episode emphasizes the importance of gratitude, the interconnectedness of nature, and the timeless tradition of Thanksgiving.As Thanksgiving season unfolds, my heart swells with gratitude as a sentiment woven into the fabric of the Garden Question podcast. This humble endeavor, rooted in the soil of appreciation, owes its growth to you, the dedicated listener, who consistently finds value in our weekly explorations of the green world. Your weekly presence serves as a testament to the podcast's resonance and vitality. And for that, I am profoundly grateful. The Garden Question podcast thrives as a collaborative venture enriched by the generosity of fellow gardeners who willingly contribute their time and expertise during interviews. In the spirit of the season, their readiness to share knowledge mirrors a communal ethos. The journey of learning to host and produce this podcast has been a pathway of gratitude in itself. The ability to acquire the new skills and adapt to the evolving landscape of content creation is a cherished gift.However, amid the bounty of gratitude, there's a human tendency to complain and be upset, an inclination I recognize in myself and reflect upon it. Yet, in the face of life's inevitable curveballs, there's solace in the realization that each challenge presents an opportunity to learn anew. Gratitude emerges as a balm that soothes the wounds of complaint, offering a perspective that transcends momentary displeasures.I think about wisdom and its potential to expedite the learning process. If only I were wiser. The lessons drawn from life's twists and turns wouldn't linger in the realm of prolonged comprehension. Yet, in the acknowledgement of this fact is a step toward that elusive wisdom. A nod to the perpetual journey of growth. The soil, a silent hero in the garden's narrative, becomes a symbol of profound gratitude. In its embrace, life sprouts and thrives. I am grateful for the soil and the intricate ecosystem it supports. Each root and leaf is a testament to the interconnected dance of existence. This interdependence extends to everything relying on the things that grow in the soil.Amid the thriving garden of imperfection, there's a quiet acceptance that perfection is not a prerequisite for growth. The metaphor extends beyond the garden bed to the human experience. I don't have to be perfect to grow. It's a liberating thought. A reminder that amidst our flaws and shortcomings, there lies the potential for continuous, beautiful growth.In the grand tapestry of imperfection, I found solace in living in a country of imperfect people. Those who voice complaints, like myself, are imperfect beings navigating life's complexities. This acknowledgment leaves room for grace to grow. A grace that can bridge gaps, fostering understanding, and weave the diverse threads of imperfection into a rich fabric of collective experiences. As we metaphorically gather around this season's table of Thanksgiving, I would like to express these sentiments. A gratitude for the podcast. For the shared wisdom of fellow gardeners, for the journey of learning and growth, for the soil that sustains life, and for the imperfect, grace filled landscape of humanity. Thank you, God, for your blessings and for the abilities to overcome the challenges.Chapter Timeline00:00 Introduction to the Thanksgiving Special01:05 Diane Blazek: Gratitude for the Horticulture Industry01:27 Nathan Wilson: Thankful for People in the Garden02:27 Heather Andrews: Appreciating Pollinators02:42 Erin Alladen: Healing Power of the Garden03:30 Carol Michel: Grateful for Gardening Community04:34 Bill Strock: Preserving Longleaf Pine Habitats05:30 Kirk R.

She was even able to place her baby girl in an open adoption and continue to be an integral part of her child's life!  Empowered by her journey, Kiara is helping others find their “Birth Mom Tribe” at TikTok, Instagram, and on Facebook. The juxtaposition between these two stories highlights the importance of nonjudgmental support, the danger of cultural shame, the power of communication, and the importance of tapping into your own personal power.  Even though we live in challenging times, we can become 'Relentlessly Resilient' as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie’s husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward.  Presented by Minky Couture, makers of the most luxurious and soft blankets with a mission to share comfort and love during the special moments of life.

Teenage pregnancy and adopting out is an emotional and heart-wrenching experience for all involved. When, in 1996, Heather Andrews found herself pregnant at 18 years old without her family and the baby’s father's support, she faced a systematic culture of shame, guilt, and abandonment. In this first of a two-part series, Heather shares the story of her first traumatic pregnancy, which ended with her adopting out her firstborn son in a closed adoption.  In our second-part episode, we will then hear a similar story two decades later in 2017, when Heather’s daughter Kiara Williamson, as a pregnant teenager herself, adopted her daughter out in a much more supportive story with an open adoption. Kiara, empowered by her journey, is helping others find their “Birth Mom Tribe” at TikTok, Instagram, and on Facebook. The juxtaposition between these two stories highlights the importance of nonjudgmental support, the danger of cultural shame, the power of communication, and the importance of tapping into your own personal power.  Even though we live in challenging times, we can become 'Relentlessly Resilient' as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences.
