Thanks for the ~ma, everyone. DH seems to be fairly calm about this and it helps that one BiL is a long-time sober addict and has more than a decade of working as a sponsor in AA and NA.
ION, I love all the parenting advice here. Always does the heart good to see how generous Buffistas are with each other.
am ordering us some positiveToddlerDiscipline books now.

Aims - so glad the outcome was ok - was vibing for your friend.
am floppy and tireds. and need groceries and hot water (the pilot light went out while we were gone. groceries include matches.)
Well, I don't love it THAT much!
That's a tough one, Scrappy. Much ~ma that it resolves well and quickly.
This morning when I was leaving for work, Momo (new kitten who now weighs a whopping 3 lbs.) was on the cat condo. I went over to give a quick skritch goodbye but the Mo had other plans. She meowed and purred and snuggled against my arm and put her little paws on my stomach and. and. So we had a little lovefest and I didn't want to leave and come to work. The end.
oh, Scrappy, I'm sorry your DH's family is going through that. I hope it resolves quickly and positively.
Momo (new kitten who now weighs a whopping 3 lbs.)
My big cat weighs about 8 times that. good lord.
I hope he turns up soon, Scrappy. ~ma to you and yours.
Sox, just have the groceries delivered.
smonster, surgery~ma for your friend.
This morning my cat objected to being shooo'ed off the kitchen counter. My arm bears the wounds. Lovely way to start the day.
Thanks, sparky. I think you met them one time when they dropped me off, maybe?
I have one more email I *have* to finish today, oy.
Momo (new kitten who now weighs a whopping 3 lbs.)
My not-so-big full grown kitty weighs just over twice that right now.
I'm hoping Momo will take after my sweet Josie, who weighed 7 lbs full-grown. The Mo seems pretty petite, so it's a possiblity. She sleeps on my legs like Jo did. Bittersweet, ya' know?
