came back to modify and send a message to nic, thanks for the input and I told you when you came here what it was like re support and good help. Lastly, my Daughter is in Mexico at the minute(I think) She got mugged in Cochabamba, Is that near you? Happy New Year nic, respec bri.
Cochabamba is not in Mexico; never heard of it. I ckd it out. It is in Bolivia.
Get a good rest and be ready for my text. I'm giving it a last look and will send it sooooon . . .

Why a comma after yard? Skip across the yard and you'll see how it reads: she dragged me past the coal-house or she dragged me behind ..... (there would be no comma) Unless you meant to say passed (a verb).
She dragged me across the yard, passed the coal-house and reached the back step.
Or
She dragged me across the yard past the coal-house to the back steps.

(enumeration)I could tell Mam meant business because she took the dirty plates out of the sink and smashed them to the floor in temper,
. oh Gawd, I was in trouble,
. I just stood looking at her . . .
After temper, your sentence is complete. Oh Gawd, I was in trouble.
(this is a independent sentence on its own)
