Sagehen Mesa - Season 4, Episode 6 - Settling back into Sagehen Mesa - Bobbie Barclay Narrates
Hello there,
I'm Bobbi, Samir's wife. I got a call from the group saying they had arrived home and were at the grocery store getting some late night snacks before returning Ronda to her home. I decided I couldn't wait and went to meet Sam there.
The place was full of teenagers, so I guess word of Ronda's return spread like wildfire, they all acted like it was a planned study group, but they aren't fooling me. It wasn't long before I noticed Ronda was telling them all about it.
Clancy had the same idea I did, and came down to the store to meet up with Rae.
My guess is Clancy and Rae had quite the reunion when they got home, because it wasn't much later that I heard Rae and Clancy are expecting! I'm so happy for her. She'll be a great mom.
Cliff Mahon happened to be at the store that night, and so was Josie, which was clearly irritating Cliff.
I noticed that Rosalie is looking more and more like her mother Maria every day.
I didn't see Dara there, and asked where she was. Sam said she had asked him to drop Ronda off at the Culpepper House because she had something she needed to take care of. He suspected she was meeting up with someone.
We got Ronda delivered to her parents and headed on home. The next day I decided it was time to introduce myself to the new neighbor across the street. It looks like she's set up to run a home business.
Her name is Terri Greenberg, and she's a baker and caterer by trade, but I found out she and I share an interest in photography. When I went to check in on her, I ran into Tim Mahon, who seemed to have the same idea that I did. She baked us some cookies, and I couldn't tell if she and Tim were hitting it off or not. Terri was nothing but kind and civil, but Tim just can't seem to exercise good manners for any length of time, and arguments ensue wherever he goes.
Terri told us she was going to be having some of her baked goods for sale the following afternoon and invited us to come check it out. As we were leaving, I pulled Tim aside and heavily suggested that if he planned to come to the bake sale, he had best bring a peace offering to make up for his bad behavior.
He did. He brought her some "apology waffles." Flowers might have been a better choice, but he learned the apology waffle trick from his dad. I remember getting a lot of apology waffles from Cliff when he and I were dating.
Anton, another shutterbug, came to the bake sale. I was thinking we ought to form some kind of club and go on outings together.
My friend and neighbor Leona showed up too, so we had a good time together.
However, I was a little dismayed to see her flirting with Anton.
Poor Anton wasn't sure what to do about it either. Maybe things aren't going well between Leona and her husband Bryon? Maybe I need to invite her out to coffee and see what's what.
In the end, Terri had a successful bake sale, selling out of all her baked goods, but she still had some disagreeable customers. One woman I've never even seen before was trying to convince Terri that she needed some fancy venue for selling her wares and not just putting them on a rack outside the front dor of her house, which got Terri all riled up.
I hope Terri isn't too discouraged. That woman wasn't one of us! We don't care about fancy venues around here.
Well, that's all I've got for you. See you soon!
