Such a great story! I grinned the whole time. I especially like Mary Margaret’s reason that Joe can’t die.

Thank you! I had a lot of fun writing that scene with all the children! I’m glad you liked it! 🙂

Lol! How in the world did you come up with this. Poor Joe, lol. I loved the way you started in the middle, went backward, and then forward. You did a great job with the towns characters; I almost felt like I knew them.
Author’s Response:
Thanks! I have no idea how I came up with it. It started with the first scene, and progressed very slowly over a period of a year–each new scene depended on me being in just the right mood and coming up with another silly twist with the towns folk. The first paragraph was me just being silly by doing as much SJS as I could. I guess I was in the right mood, because that first scene came out quickly after that.

This isn’t just over the top. This is over the top, way down the other side, across the river and through the woods and into at least the next territory! Thank you for a chance to really throw back my head and howl with laughter–or something….
And you even remembered Lisa’s rope! 😉
Author’s Response:
SJS on steroids! 😉 Yep! Had to give Lisa her rope! Thanks! I’m glad you had a good laugh–or something! 😉

You know, this really was a VERY bad day, but it could have been sooooo much worse. The good news, Little Joe has a family who loves him (even if they did laugh about his predicament).
Author’s Response:
Gives you a whole new perspective doesn’t it? Sometimes laughter really is the best medicine, especially as a needed release after a tragedy! 😉 I’m glad you liked this! Thanks for letting me know!

I needed this laugh today! Joe attracted trouble and “bad days” so easily!
This was an absolute hoot! Anyone who thinks they’re having a bad day should read this. And if one read-through doesn’t result in a cure, then take two and call Doc Marting in the morning.
Good Story funny too Poor Joe in trouble again.
Joe has the worst luck ever :joy: great job, Freya!
Ohhhh my poor sweetie Joe ! Lol
Omg this was soooo funny ! My hubby was looking at me like i was some kind of nut when i was struggling to suppress loud laughs !
Don’t want to give to much away so will just say loved the part with the kids , especially what the little girl says , lol
And Adams conversation , soooo Adam and so funny !
Guess Joe had a bad day so everyone else could have a good one !
Great laugh thanks
