What a week! I got my reading in (partially due to a 6 hour delay at the airport, but you fill your time the best you can) and did my workouts and stuck to my new pledge to read one major news source per week. Plus, I figured out how to use some of the new software tools at work so I can do my job better!

I . . . I feel a poem coming on. (But…[Read more]

Thanks for doing these, Allissa. Here’s hoping your co-workers (and management!) understand all the time you have to put in to produce them.

First off, please accept my sympathy for your wife’s passing. I hope that you can remember the reasons that you loved her to help you through this time.

In addition to what Flint said, let me give you two reasons to allay your concerns. (1) I’ve talked with many of the ladies at Sheri’s, and they’ve all been compassionate people. I’m sure…[Read more]

I just got back from my March visit, and in case someone else reviews this post, yes you can bring in food to the ladies of the house. You have to drop it off up front so someone else takes to the kitchen (which makes sense), but that’s the only restriction. And if anyone’s looking for suggestions, I’d lean towards something the ladies can’t…[Read more]

Hands down, Erin. As a Marine I’m betting she has training in wilderness survival, or at least water purification.

There are two other things that you might consider:

1. From what I’ve read, the negotiation is a very important part of the process. If there’s a lady who speaks Chinese there that day, then there’s no problem. But if not (and in skimming the languages spoken at Sheri’s I don’t see Chinese, so it’s likely that there won’t be), then the…[Read more]

Thanks, all. I assumed that I should wait until everything was ready to go before contacting a lady, but it looks like this is unnecessary (and counterproductive). As long as I’m honest that I won’t be there until January so I can save up I agree that it’ll be OK.

P.S. The Newbies Guide and What Every Client Should Know were enormously helpful…[Read more]

Thanks, Flint. No, I haven’t contacted any of the ladies because I won’t have the money that I expect to spend saved up until the end of this month. This will set me up for a visit in January at the earliest, and I don’t want to set up an appointment with a lady until I’m absolutely certain I can pay for it. They’re busy, and I expect they…[Read more]

Thanks! Could you answer one more question? There are, as you said, a few ladies in the age range I’m interested in. I can see the days that they’ll be working, but there’s no time of day. Since Sheri’s is a 24 hour establishment, I don’t want to arrive after they’ve worked all day and are trying to rest. So is my best bet to contact each…[Read more]
