What am I talking about? Snow, of course. I just don't care for it, never have and never will. It affects my life so much, it cramps my style. As I don't drive, I cannot get around as easily as I would be able to in the other Seasons. I guess I had better get used to it, because it probably will be here for the next six or seven months!! It's not like this yet, but it soon will be....</b></span><br />

<b><span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>This is a Canadian thriller, directed by Atom Egoyan and starring Mireille Enos and Ryan Reynolds. You may remember Mireille from "The Killing", a series of three distinct stories which revolved around a single murder.</i></span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>The captive is essentially an abduction thriller, set over time span of eight years. Mireille Enos and Ryan Reynolds play the parents, whose daughter is kidnapped one day outside of coffee shop. The agonising search for leads on the identity of the kidnapper is set over a period of 8 years. Scott Speedman and Rosario Dawson provide strong support as the lead police officers assigned to the case. The audience is already aware of the identity of the kidnapper which allows us to empathise more with the parents and police officers involved.</i></span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>There are frequent time shifts within the movie, centring around events just after the abduction, six years after the incident and finally eight years, leading to the film’s climax. Some reviewers have criticized this, as there was no indication, the audience is left to work out what has happened.</i></span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>The main conflict which fleshes out the middle part of the movie are the themes of guilt, the distraught mother blames her husband for the abduction and in turn he blames him self. I enjoyed this movie, they can't all be terrific but I think it was worth the price of entry.</i></span></b><br />

Unfortunately both Niki and I came down with terrible colds (or was it flu) which put a little bit of a dampner on things, especially as my other son who lives in Toronto came to visit for a few days so I had to make an effort to at least go out with him a few times. I'm still not over it two weeks later.</span></b></div>

I am amazed at how easily she can produce an interesting "read" with no real effort. Most of her blogs are from her wonderful memories of her childhood, her parents and the beautiful area where she grew up. Each and every one is filled with so many interesting tidbits, recipes accompanied by photos, especially if she had just baked using her mother's tried and proved favourite recipes. Ah, I do envy her ability to bring all this to life on a regular basis. I wish I had half her talent and could blog as often but that is not the case.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;"><b>This blog of mine is to show you what I have been up to since the last time we came together and to be honest, there really isn't too much to show you. I have been commissioned by two separate ladies to create button trees.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;"><b>The first lady had purchased one of my trees and liked it so much that she wanted me to paint one for her, in red and black, to give to a friend who was coming to Canada for a visit. So, this beauty will end up in Ireland. I hope it makes it in one piece.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;"><b>This one wasn't too difficult to create, afterall, I have made about eight others in different colours, but the next commission was a little more scarey. I lady I had recently met, who seemed to like a lot of my "creations" and had purchased quite a few in one visit to my Boutique, asked me if I would like to take on a project..... to create two larger canvases with trees and, wait for it, antique buttons. She had quite a large amount of gorgeous buttons which she had saved over the years and after purchasing two of my smaller button trees, she thought it would be an unique idea if I could put her precious buttons to good use and create two larger button trees. Afterall, what good was it to have all these beauties if you couldn't see them and admire them.</b></span></div>

<b><span style="color: magenta;">Lucy is a 25-year-old American woman living and studying in Taipai, Taiwan. She is tricked to work as a drug mule by her new boyfriend for his employer, a Korean gangster and drug lord named Mr. Jang. Lucy delivers a briefcase to Mr. Jang's hotel room that is handcuffed to her wrist containing a highly valuable synthetic superdrug called CPH4 that can increase the user's brain function capacity. Through a turn of events the packaged drug is forcefully sewn into Lucy's abdomen and that of others who will also transport the drug for sales in Europe. While in captivity, one of Lucy's captors tries to rape her and kicks her mercilessly in the stomach, causing the bag inside her to leak, releasing the brain-enhancing drug into her system. As a result, she begins acquiring increasingly powerful mental talents and enhanced physical capabilities, such as absorbing information instantaneously, telekinesis, mental time travel, and can choose not to feel pain or other discomforts, in addition to other abilities. She fends off her present captors and arranges herself with the newly gained abilities.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: magenta;">Lucy travels to a nearby hospital to remove the leaking container of drugs from her abdomen. The bag of drugs is successfully removed, and Lucy realizes that she requires the bags inside the other three drug mules in order to continue expanding her neural capacity and that the process of rapid cell growth the drug is stimulating will eventually kill her. Returning to Mr. Jang's hotel, Lucy assaults him and telepathically extracts the locations of all three drug mules from his mind.</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
<b><span style="color: magenta;">At her shared apartment, in which she had resided with an actor friend, Lucy starts a research about her condition and connected scientific material in order to find experienced and trustworthy support. She contacts a well-known scientist and doctor, Professor Norman, whose research may be the key to saving her. After Lucy speaks with the professor and provides proof of her developed abilities, she flies to Paris and contacts a local policeman, Del Rio, to help her find the remaining three packets of the drug. Her powers continue to grow, leaving her able to mentally disable an entire police force followed by the men who made her a drug mule. Lucy recovers the drug and must hurry to meet the doctor, with whom she agrees to share everything she now knows, once each cell in her body is controlled. Mr. Jang and his henchmen also want the drug and a gunfight ensues with the French police.</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
<b><span style="color: magenta;">While in the doctor's lab and in the midst of a time and space journey, Mr. Jang enters and points a gun at Lucy's head from behind, intending to kill her. He shoots, but in an instant before the bullet strikes, Lucy disappears within the space time continuum where everything is connected and existence is only proven through time. Only her clothes are left behind. The French policeman Del Rio enters and fatally shoots Mr. Jang. Del Rio asks where Lucy is. Norman takes a flash drive from the advanced supercomputer created by Lucy's body using the matter in the room and a text message from her answering the question appears on Del Rio's phone: "I AM EVERYWHERE." An overhead shot of Mr. Jang's body follows with Lucy's voice heard off-screen: "Life was given to us a billion years ago, and now you know what to do with it." - Courtesy of Wikipedia.</span></b></div>

I had a wonderful vacation with my son, his lovely wife and my two adorable grandchildren. Ten days went by so quickly and I think that this was one of the best visits to date. I managed to treat my sons (twins) to a birthday supper whilst I was there and was able to take part in my grandson's fifth birthday.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;"><b>Unfortunately, when I returned home I indulged myself in a really fine dose of 'flu', or something resembling it..... fever, chest and nasal infection, sore throat, general malaise, no appetite and nausea. So, for a week or more, I really did nothing and hardly even left my apartment. I'm pleased to report that I am greatly improved and hoping for more strength every day.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;"><b>This last month I haven't made anything exciting for my Boutique but I do have a couple of items on the go so I will show them next posting. So, that's it - pretty uneventful really so I will leave you with a couple of photos of my little darlings. I can't wait to go and visit them again. I figure in about another month-six weeks.</b></span><br />

In just a few days I will be embarking on the Greyhound bus on my way to visit my darling grandkids and their parents. It's about six months since my last Gadabout and can't wait to see the changes in the little darlings. Of course I have Skyped with them but it's not the same as being in the same room with them, cuddling and kissing them and I aim to get me lots of that kind of loving.</b></span><br />

I wish I had taken a photo of the before for this item - that's one of my weaknesses, I forget to do it and then once I have started to refinish, it's too late. You will have to imagine how this looked just plain wood coloured. It's much nicer shabby chic'd.....</b></span><br />

Kerry has been a friend of mine for quite a few years - we first met when we both would take part in the local Arts & Crafts Shows. We had always been very admiring of each other's work and praised the different styles we both had and would always be so happy to see each other and support one another. Here are a few photos of Kerry's Boutique. It is called "Lovely Little Studio". Kerry will be having her official Open House this coming Saturday, 3rd May and I'm hoping that my local readers will come out and support her.</b></span><br />

Last Saturday we had our local TV Station come into our Boutique and interview us in our individual rooms. At first I didn't want to do it but Ann, the lovely reporter (and someone who now works where I worked for 25 years) gently talked me into it.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><b>Our local Pottery Guild was planning an Open House, which took place last Saturday, and the TV station came in about two weeks prior to this and did a segment on them. That was it, I thought.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><b>I "bumped" into Ann at the Library just a few days after that and she said she had heard so much about my little Boutique from co-workers that she wanted to come back and do a piece on myself and the others. I was terribly nervous but managed to get through it, so here it is if you would like to check it out.</b></span><br />

<b><span style="color: magenta;">On the way, they come upon a group of people recently killed. They adopt the lone survivor, a girl named Ila, who was wounded in the attack and has become barren. Noah and his family are chased by Tubal-Cain's men, but are able to seek refuge with <span style="color: magenta;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallen_angel" style="background-image: none; text-decoration: none;" title="Fallen angel"><span style="color: magenta;">fallen angels</span></a> known as the Watchers. The Watchers had been forced by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God" style="background-image: none; text-decoration: none;" title="God"><span style="color: magenta;">Creator</span></a> to remain on earth as stone <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golem" style="background-image: none; text-decoration: none;" title="Golem"><span style="color: magenta;">golems</span></a> for disobeying the Creator and helping humans after they had been banished from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_of_Eden" style="background-image: none; text-decoration: none;" title="Garden of Eden"><span style="color: magenta;">Garden of Eden</span></a></span>.

<b><span style="color: magenta;">Noah receives a seed passed down from Eden from Methuselah. He plants the seed and an entire forest grows from it within seconds. Noah announces that all the wood will be used to build an ark, and Noah's family and the Watchers begin construction.</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
<b><span style="color: magenta;">Eight years later, as the Ark nears completion, animals start to walk into the ark and are put to sleep by incense that Noah prepares. Noah goes to a nearby settlement to find wives for his three sons but finds that the surrounding lands have been running short on food and the humans, led by Tubal-Cain, have become savage and <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannibal" style="background-image: none; text-decoration: none;" title="Cannibal"><span style="color: magenta;">cannibalistic</span></a>. He becomes convinced that the Creator wishes for the human race to end and abandons his effort. Back at the camp, Methuselah blesses Ila, and her barrenness is cured.</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
<b><span style="color: magenta;">Ham decides to go to the camp himself and find a wife. He encounters a frightened young girl named Na'el. She is willing to go with him as the flood begins, but on their way back Na'el's foot gets caught in an animal trap just as Tubal-Cain's horde marches on the Ark. Noah forces Ham to save himself and leave Na'el behind to be trampled to death.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: magenta;">All of Noah's family gets in the Ark except for Methuselah, who chooses to die in the flood. As the Ark is launched, the Watchers sacrifice themselves to protect it from the oncoming horde, allowing them to ascend into Heaven. As the flood drowns the remaining soldiers, Tubal-Cain manages to stow away on the Ark. The king is found by Ham and befriends him, playing on anger toward Noah for allowing Na'el to die.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: magenta;">Ila discovers that she is pregnant, and soon after the rains stop. Naameh, Shem, and Ila inform Noah of this, but the patriarch says that if the child is a girl he will kill her to satisfy the Creator's wish to destroy humanity. Noah asks for the Creator's counsel but finds no answer. He resolves to follow his plan, despite Naameh's unsuccessful attempts to dissuade him.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: magenta;">Meanwhile, Tubal-Cain is able to convince Ham to help kill Noah. Noah is lured by Ham to the aft of the ark on false pretenses, where he is attacked by Tubal-Cain, Ham, and Shem. As they fight, the Ark hits a mountain, injuring both Noah and Tubal-Cain. As Tubal-Cain is about to deliver a killing blow to Noah, a repentant Ham attacks and kills Tubal-Cain. Noah searches the ark for Ila and the twins and finds them, but decides to spare their lives.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: magenta;">As the family departs the Ark, Ham decides to leave them, still angry at Noah. Noah explains that he didn't kill his grandchildren because he had nothing in his heart but love for them. Noah blesses the family as the beginning of a new human race. They watch as the Creator sends a rainbow from the sky, covering all of the Earth, signaling his promise to never destroy mankind with a flood again."</span></b></div>

<b style="color: #e69138;"><span style="font-size: large;">I decided to turn all my jewelry into grab bags in the hope that I could finally sell it all. It has been a few years since I did all the craft shows where things like this sold very well, but now not so much. In each bag I have a minimum of seven items which I am selling for $5 a bag. They are now in my Boutique for sale and also in my local grocery store, City Meat Market and they have been doing very well there. They are so good to me. They also are a great little family grocery store which sells locally grown produce as well as organic meat, etc.</span></b></div>

Yesterday was not bad at all, sunny and bright, but today it went back to being chilly and dreary. Good job I can keep myself busy at home.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3; font-size: large;"><b><br />
So, what have I been doing?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3; font-size: large;"><b><br />
I found a rather dirty old footstool and dragged it home and when I went to work on it, ripping off the old material, this is what I found underneath. Can you imagine how excited I was. It must be pretty old but I am no expert so when I put it in my Boutique I will ask a reasonable price for it but I think it will be a win/win situation for all. This is what it looked like (with small legs) when I got it....</b></span><br />

<b><span style="color: #8e7cc3; font-size: large;">Another piece I finally finished. I had worked on it a couple of years ago and was using it in my living room but then decided to tidy it up and sell it. It is so cute in its creaminess with a lovely French decal on top. I might bring this one back home if it doesn't sell...</span></b><br />

Better not, because I try not to give place to any of this but sometimes it really is too hard to ignore, so I work through the pain and I always come out ahead. I'm not the type to indulge in a pity party for too long, except the time when my second hubby died and I had to face all the problems that this marriage and his illness had brought me, and I fell flat on my face, but I managed with some great counselling to pick myself up.</b></span></div>

<span style="color: #8e7cc3; font-size: large;"><b>My next project is going to be a cute old desk and chair I bought from a neighbour who was moving out of this apartment building into a retirement home. This sweet lady, who is in her 80's, said her hubby made this for her many years ago. Notice the delightfully scalloped edges. I will also put new hardware on the drawers. It wasn't cheap but then I wasn't out to take advantage of her, so I will probably have it up for sale in my Boutique when I have it finished for about $20 more than I paid for it and as you can see, it's going to take a lot of work upholstering the chair and chalk painting and waxing both pieces....</b></span></div>

She had struggled with this "devil" for over twenty years, always silently fighting and putting on a very brave face. She had the most wonderful sense of humour and would have us in stitches, sometimes at the most inappropriate times, especially when the head honcho was close by and would almost catch us carrying on like silly teenagers. Ah, those were the days. I hope that she is now resting in the arms of her Creator and with those she loved. The reason why I am mentioning her is because many years ago she gave me a beautiful angel as part of a Christmas present exchange, and every year since I have brought it out of its place of honour in my curio cabinet to top my tree. This year, it felt so different as I placed it on top of my little Christmas tree, the memories and emotions came flooding back and I uttered a small prayer for the repose of her soul. Rest in peace my friend. Here are a couple of photos of the tree, graced with the angel.</b></span><br />

As usual, I have been working on this and that and will be putting them in my Boutique in the hopes that someone will take pity on me and my hard work and buy them, LOL I nearly always forget to take photos before I begin a project and this first one is no exception. I found this in an almost abandoned shop a few weeks ago and got up the nerve to go inside and ask the owner if he was thinking of selling it. The sweet young man gave it to me, so I dragged it home on my shopping cart and here it is..... oh, I did buy him an apple juice and muffin the next day from City Meat Market for his break.</b></span><br />

Last week I had a Cat Scan on my chest because the previous one showed something of concern and this one showed no change, so that was good news. The other appointment was at the Eye Specialist to monitor my eyes as I have been on a medication for Lupus which could severely damage sight. Also good news, even though my sight is not very good, due to age, etc. the testing showed that my eyes are healthy and haven't been damaged by the meds (which I now have stopped taking because they weren't good for long term use and really didn't help anyway). The specialist told me that he could see the beginning of cataracts which I should monitor with a check-up in about a year, but not with him as he is retiring.</b></span><br />

This would explain why I have been lacking in strength and having some trouble breathing and finding it more difficult to walk, but, as the poets of yore would say, "plod on, plod on, the footpath way, and merrily over the stile", LOL - really, what choice do I have but to keep on keeping on and staying busy with my creativity. What would I do if I didn't do that? Also, I went for a Geriatric Assessment at the Geriatric Assessment Clinic (I think it's new) at our local hospital. I think I did very well, but then I do "in the moment" - it's trying to remember yesterday or twenty years ago, or even two minutes ago that I have a problem with. Anyway, onto more fun stuff.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><b>I had a very good day at my Boutique, in all ways, my sales were acceptable (of course I will never make a fortune but am happy making enough to cover my rent for the month and for the purchases I make throughout each week)..... the customers were such fun and my co-hobbyists were back to being friendly. Everything to my liking and hoping that it stays that way.... competition and such can be so upsetting, but that's an old story now, so let's leave it there.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><b>I picked up two really old and shabby and I mean shabby not "shabby chic" chairs from one of the local thrift stores (between you and I, thrift stores around here are not what they used to be because everyone wants to find a bargain, not just the needy, so the prices are not always low), and worked my ample butt off sanding, painting, waxing, polishing and re-upholstering turning them into two beauties..... from Cinderella, to the Fairy Princess, LOL This is what they looked like when I bought them and dragged them home on my shopping cart......</b></span><br />

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-size: large;"><b>"Low level marijuana drug dealer David Clark (Jason Sudeikis) is robbed of his money and stash, some of which he owes to his supplier. His boss, wealthy drug lord Brad Gurdlinger (Ed Helms) forces David to smuggle marijuana from Mexico in order to clear his debt. Realizing that one man attempting to get through customs is too suspicious, he hires a stripper named Rose (Jennifer Aniston), a runaway teenage girl named Casey (Emma Roberts), and his virgin 18 year-old neighbor Kenny (Will Poulter) to pose as a bogus family called the "Millers". Because of the extra load of the marijuana on the RV, one of the radiator hoses breaks while going up a steep incline. A family they had encountered at the border called the Fitzgeralds, consisting of Don (Nick Offerman), Edie (Kathryn Hahn), and Melissa (Molly Quinn), catch up to them and tow the Millers' RV to a repair shop. On the trip to the shop, David learns that Don Fitzgerald is a DEA agent after finding his badge and gun in the glove compartment.</b></span></div>

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-size: large;"><b>The next day, when the Millers head to the shop to pick up the RV, Chacon and his henchman One Eye (Matthew Willig) are waiting for them and prepare to execute the family. They immediately tell Chacon that they aren't a real family and that they didn't know they were stealing from him. Rose is given a chance to prove that she is a stripper by dancing, and when she gets close, turns a steam vent onto Chacon. The Millers then escape in the RV, with Kenny behind the wheel. Due to Kenny's erratic driving, the RV veers off the highway and a tarantula, hiding in a bowl of fruit given to them when they picked up the marijuana, crawls up Kenny's leg and bites his testicle. As Kenny has a severe allergic reaction to the sting, the Millers head to the hospital. This further delays the delivery of the contraband, but David re-negotiates with Gurdlinger for a fee of $500,000. When Kenny is finally released, David rushes him to the RV in a wheelchair and tips him over. David inadvertently reveals how much he is getting paid, in comparison to how little he offered to pay each of the others. Casey, Rose, and Kenny are left in disgust by the revelation, and so David leaves them at the local carnival.</b></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-size: large;"><b>David regrets abandoning them and returns to the carnival, begging them on his knees to come back with him. On their way back to the RV, One Eye discovers the and as he is about to shoot everyone, Don Fitzgerald comes out of the camper and subdues him. Chacon then comes around the corner and is about to kill them all, but David hits Chacon and he drops his gun. Rose picks it up and accidentally shoots Chacon in the shoulder and as he is recovering, Kenny punches Chacon and knocks him out. Don arrests Chacon and One Eye and tells the Millers that he will arrest them too, but actually gives them the opportunity to leave. David delivers the drugs to Gurdlinger who tells him he's late and that their deal is off. DEA agents then crash into the room, arresting Gurdlinger. The agent in charge is Don, who tells David that he will have to be in the witness protection program until Gurdlinger's trial. He then adds that anyone what was a witness to the crime will be in protection, and David smiles. The Millers are then seen together in a beautiful home, with several marijuana plants growing in the garden."</b></span></div>

I'm sure it is just as good as all the other makes, e.g. Sony, Acer, Gateway, etc. but so far, I have lost this post twice - it just disappeared from the screen - was it me??? I was always an excellent typist, 95 words a minute on an electric typewriter but now I am lucky to be able to get by with around 40 wpm and keeping my fingers on the right keys. Of course, my twisted fingers (from arthritis) might also have something to do with it. I'll put the blame wherever I can, LOL</span></b></div>

Ashburn and Mullins are confronted by two</strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_Enforcement_Administration" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Drug Enforcement Administration"><strong>DEA</strong></a><strong> agents, Craig (</strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Bakkedahl" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Dan Bakkedahl"><strong>Dan

Killam</strong></a><strong>), who have been working the Larkin case for several
months and are worried that their case will be compromised. After viewing him on
a screen in the DEA agents' surveillance van, Ashburn discovers that Mullins'
brother, Jason (</strong><a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Rappaport" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Michael Rappaport"><strong>Michael
Rappaport</strong></a><strong>), was recently released from prison, having been
put there by Mullins herself, and may be connected to Larkin's organization.
Ashburn convinces Mullins to go to her parents' home to ask Jason for
information on Larkin. On their arrival at the home, it becomes apparent that
Mullins' parents and two other brothers still harbor deep resentment for
Mullins' involvement in Jason's incarceration. Jason, who does not have any ill
feelings toward his sister, tips her off about the body of a murdered drug
dealer hidden in an abandoned car. Upon examination of the body, chemicals on
the victim's shoes lead Ashburn and Mullins to an abandoned paint factory, where
they witness a drug dealer being murdered by a member of Larkin's organization
named Julian (</strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_McDonald_(comedian)" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Michael McDonald (comedian)"><strong>Michael
McDonald</strong></a><strong>). The two apprehend Julian and interrogate him
regarding Larkin, but are unable to extract any substantial information
regarding Larkin's whereabouts.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">
<strong>The
pair spends the evening in a bar bonding over several rounds of drinks. After a
night of raucous drinking and partying, Ashburn wakes up the following morning
to discover that, in her drunkenness, she has given her car keys to one of the
bar patrons. After unsuccessfully pleading for the keys, Ashburn watches, along
with Mullins, as the car explodes upon being started, having been fitted with
a </strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_bomb" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Car bomb"><strong>bomb</strong></a><strong>.
During the investigation of the explosion, the two discover that Julian has
escaped from custody and may mean to harm Mullins' family. Mullins moves the
family into a motel, but learns that Jason has joined with the Larkin
organization in an attempt to aid the case. Jason gives her a tip about a drug
shipment coming in to </strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Harbor" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Boston Harbor"><strong>Boston
Harbor</strong></a><strong>. The FBI sets up a sting at the harbor to take down
the shipment, but discovers that the ship they have been waiting for is actually
only a pleasure cruise ship and Jason has been set up by Larkin. Knowing that he
informed the FBI about the supposed drug shipment, Larkin attempts to have Jason
killed, but only puts him into a </strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coma" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Coma"><strong>coma</strong></a><strong>.</strong></div>

<strong>Mullins
vows to bring her brother's attacker to justice. Ashburn and Mullins interrogate
Rojas and learn of a warehouse where Larkin houses his operations. After
equipping themselves with assault equipment from Mullins' extensive personal
arsenal, the two infiltrate the warehouse. Despite taking out several of
Larkin's men with a </strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_grenade" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Hand grenade"><strong>hand
grenade</strong></a><strong>, the two women are captured and bound by Julian,
who threatens to torture them with knives. Julian is called away by Larkin, but
before he leaves the room, he stabs Ashburn in the leg with one of the knives.
Mullins removes the knife from Ashburn's leg and uses it to cut the rope binding
her hands. Before she can finish freeing herself and Ashburn, they are
discovered by Craig and Adam. Craig begins to untie the two women, but is shot
and killed by Adam. Ashburn and Mullins deduce that Adam is actually Larkin,
having been working his own case from inside the DEA for several months. Julian
reenters and is instructed by Larkin to kill Ashburn and Mullins while he goes
to the hospital to kill Jason. After Larkin leaves, Mullins, whose hands have
already been untied, manages to finish freeing herself and incapacitates Julian.
Mullins then frees Ashburn and the two race to the hospital to save
Jason.</strong></div>

<strong>Upon
their arrival, Mullins rushes to find Jason. Ashburn, hindered by the stab wound
in her leg, is unable to move quickly. Mullins finds Jason's room, only to
discover Larkin standing over his bed with a </strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syringe" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Syringe"><strong>syringe</strong></a><strong>,
intending to kill Jason by injecting air into his vein, causing his death by
an </strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_embolism" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Air embolism"><strong>air
embolism</strong></a><strong>. Mullins drops her weapon in an attempt to save
her brother's life. Ashburn, having had to crawl to the room, then enters and
subdues Larkin by shooting him in the genitals. With Larkin captured, Ashburn
requests to stay in the FBI's Boston field office, having developed a strong
friendship with Mullins. Jason is shown having fully recovered from his coma.
The film ends with Mullins receiving a commendation from the Boston Police
Department, with her family present cheering for her, having reconciled
her.</strong></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><strong>"Author Sharon Srock went from science
fiction to Christian fiction at slightly less than warp speed. Twenty five
years ago, she cut her writer's teeth on Star Trek fiction. Today, she writes
inspirational stories that focus on ordinary women using their faith to
accomplish extraordinary things. A member of the American Christian Fiction
Writers, Sharon serves her local chapter in the role of treasurer. Sharon lives
in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma with her husband and three very large dogs.
Her books include: The Women of Valley View: Callie and The Women of Valley
View: Terri, both of which are currently available. The Women of Valley View:
Pam will release in early 2014."</strong></span><br />
