Scrappy, sorry to hear about your old boyfriend.
To all the gross weather suffers, I empathize (Midwest girl.)
Maria, indeed. IN. VERY. DEED.
Weird query: To lawyers, ex-lawyers, friends of lawyers, etc: Do they hate it or love when when clients do their own research on legalities and statutes and draw up materials, and are insanely organized?
I have this need to educate myself, and also, hey -- I'd love to reduce billable hours. He already told us there's a form we can file ourselves in certain situations if ex acts up re: getting in the ways of Kiddo visits/access, and since I used to file Orders of Protection for DV clients, and when I wrote my own contract for my biz, and a (ahem) legal friend proofed it and made only a couple of minor changes, I feel pretty confident about understanding and rough drafting legalese.
Yea or nay?
Also? GOOD MORNING, FRIENDS!
I hear you. I think I had PTSD this year from *last* winter.
Today though, it is beautiful out, if chilly. (Perhaps especially since the dog park this morning was me and the three hottest guys in the neighborhood. Good thing I brushed my hair.)
Sue, after a month, if you have not seen a doc, please do. You well past the window for ordinary coughnlingering after a cold.

Ooh, fun! The last week I was taking long walks with my coworker/neighbor, to get some steps in since we were working from home. And two days in a row ran into exes of mine. Sadly, the day it was at the END of the walk was the cuter ex. ;(
I want to pet goats!
Strix, depends on the lawyer. But I think most family law lawyers are familiar with the issue of keeping the hours down. A friend of mine once cut a deal with her lawyer, to do a lot of the research into the same issues you're dealing with. The lawyer saved time and Cheryl saved money.
Thanks, Suela! I'll mention that to him, because I can research like crazy, and any databases I can't get into or my sister the PT college librarian can't get into, I have a TON of librarian friends who could probably hook me up.
I was the Court Liaison for two DV shelters, so I'm not afraid of getting to the courthouse and asking questions till I get the right procedure down, F2F, either.
God, what would I -- ANY of us -- do without Buffistas?
Ahahaha, on Good Stuff Happened Today, the toddler who's crying when he met the sanitation workers -- he lives in my neighborhood! We know his dad (mostly as a nodding acquaintance, but still).

I saw that somewhere else a few days ago. So cute! And I love that the sanitation workers take the time to entertain the kid every day when they see him watching from the window.
You guys have some cute sanitation workers.
