I'm sorry everyone's sick and that sucks about Dan's car.
It's been crazy lately, my nephew and bro are in town. Mom's here too.
And today my G'ma passed away. This is a good thing, she was in a lot of pain the last few days and even when Hospice said she couldn't be in pain due to the morphine she would still scream repeatedly.
Mom's not flying up there until Monday and the funeral will be on Wednesday. Then Mom will stay through Christmas with her siblings.
I'm sad about this, but I'm more sad that I wasn't able to see her in the past few years and I can't even remember what our last hug was like.
I won't be going to Oklahoma for the funeral. I want to but I think it will be better for my Mom and her siblings if there's less stress and less people. Not to mention the cost of the ticket up there.

I took "wanker" to be the jerk sense of the word, leaving self-love a valid option.
Oh, askye. Love to you and your family.
I'm sorry for your loss, askye. Thinking of you.
I`m sorry for your loss, askye.
I'm sorry, askye. Much peace to you and your family.

is there any way to convince a 14 yo girl to stay away from a senior boy who has a reputation several miles long known by every school teacher and administrator and most parents of upper class girls? my little sister is smitten. she has been repeatedly told to stay away from him. she's been forced to drop out of the drama class that they share and to drop out of the school musical in which she would have been sharing scenes with him. my father has (ill-advisedly) sent him vaguely worded threatening messages (not of physical violence, but to negatively affect his application to the naval academy.) yesterday a christmas gift from him arrived at the house, and the day before that a teacher separated the two of them canoodling on a sofa in the library at school. clearly parental intervention short of shipping her off to a boarding school is not working. What on earth can a (much older) half-sister on the other side of the country do to try and make her see sense? Reason stands no hope against these hormones. *sigh*
It sounds to me like they have created a romeo and Juliette situation. I wonder if it is too late to change the reaction? I don't imagine that it is easy, but maybe instead of enforced separation, limited supervised visitation?
from your end? can you suggest that true love has time -- and only really good behavior ( no canoodling on the library sofa) might convince your folks to change their mind?
Not really sure you can do much
Yeah, keeping them apart like that is probably the worst thing they can do!
