We've told him that the rule is he must call us any time there is a police officer, an ambulance, a hospital or ER, or any combination of the three. (All three this time eventually, not to mention the time he drove his pickup over his foot a year ago). And press the damn button!

I am not optimistic.

Oh, man, brenda. Parents!

I'm having chicky-chicky-parm-parm for lunch. I might be more excited about having the opportunity to say that than actually eating it.

Limited internet rules coming to our home. E had his therapy today. He failed to do any of the things he promised us he would do 2 weeks ago. We start Sunday night with 10pm internet off.

Brenda, you have my sympathies.

Good luck with that, msbelle. I hope this summer treats you better than it seems like it might.

Therapist went over rules with him alone so it wasn't coming from me. We shall see. I just happy for rules again. Clearly defined, easily enforceable rules.

Our wings are not tired.

Mac, trust me on this, it is easiest to just follow the damn rules. Hope he gets this one quicker than mine.

If not, then nothing really changes for me, I just get faster internet for myself since he won't be using it. His contribution to the household could not get any worse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oy, Rebecca.

Totally different family oy, brenda.

On my day off, I bought makeup and went for a long walk, and now I'm lying on the hammock with a full face of makeup. As one does.
