msbelle, I have worked with a LOT of troubled kids and you ARE a good mom. I know it doesn't always feel like it, especially when a child is hurting, acting out, being hurtful to you. But you are doing the right thing, and the right thing can suck to the utmost.
I have seen some shitty parents. You ARE NOT ONE OF THEM.
Take care of yourself. By doing so, you can care for Mac. I wish you lived closer, so I could actively help out.
Much love to you both.
What they have said, msbelle. Strength~ma in abundance.
Congrats to the teachers wrapping up their years.
Mr. Peabody, thank you for the smiles. Zoe could tell you tales about the pelicans and cranes that mock her from the dock pilings. It's a tough life, the dog's life.
Missing ita ! and hoping with all my heart that life is taking a turn toward the pain free.
Thank you all.

I love his work.
Sad! Although, if you heard his last Fresh Air interview, he was pretty much ready to go.
Damn. Sorry to hear about M. Sendak.
Msbelle, all peace and strength to you. I hope Mac comes around.

Indeed.

I was thinking about her during the Avengers.

Good morning. I do not manage to get up an work out. But I did make it to Waffle House (currently waiting on my meal before heading to airport). Sad that the store I would want to go to doesn't open until 11, when I have to be at the airport. Boo. But it was awesome seeing family Flea and Teppy and meeting Tim. Yay!
