And now a distracting pleasure. XDress Probably not safe for work. I haven't seen the whole site but it's men in lingerie.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I am famous!!!! (sort of not really) [link]

Barb,
are you speaking to them in person? You might need to escalate to an in person confrontation.
Quick check in (Micah's last weekend, and he leaves tomorrow asm, so am grey):

Ok, I and my exclamation marks run away now. Dan's ex Mil picking M up, so am cleaning, soothing, packing, writing, sad, tired all at once.
See ya later tomorrow!

Lewis went to the agency this morning to get things in gear and he's the one who's been on the phone with them. He's actually keeping the phones away from me because of, and I quote, "The murderous rage in your eyes. I don't want to have to bail you out of jail."

Eeeee, how cool!
5 minutes on the phone with them and it may jumpstart the discussions though!
I can't help feeling that if they aren't kissing your asses by now, Lewis is being too gentle.
I can't complain about how he's dealing with them-- he's being far more reasonable than I would have been and when necessary, he's been applying the screws. What's really bothering me is how at every turn, where we're trying to ensure the kids' safety and well-being, they're behaving as if we're asking for the impossible. Frex, we originally set their itinerary so that they wouldn't have to transfer through Atlanta Hartsfield, mostly because it's their first unaccompanied cross-country flight with a connection. Before, they're always had direct flights, but we figured that they're old enough to navigate a connecting flight and it makes life easier for their grandparents. But my one stipulation was that they not go through Atlanta-- hell, I know adults who are intimidated by making connections through Hartsfield. So we figured Charlotte on the way there and Houston on the way back-- neither airport overwhelming.
Now, it looks like they're going to be going through Atlanta both ways and each flight has a layover of less than an hour (the layover on the way there would be 35 minutes!). And when we said that was unacceptable and if that was the only alternative, then they would have to pay for the kids to be escorted between gates in Atlanta. Now they're arguing about that.
