(((Tommyrot))) I hope the airline steps up and comes through for you. Or gets you on a different airline with no trouble. What a pain.
(((flea))) I'm sorry, that sounds really hard. I am not a parent, but I think as long as you are not actively fucking your kids up (and it seems like you are not) you are doing pretty well! Also, Casper sounds like younger me which makes me think ADHD might be a suspect.
Lemon meringue ice cream pie sounds amazing.
Following the recipe except for changing a couple of things = following the recipe, Jesse. I have had that conversation with my mother many times When she gives the recipe for something and has to run down what she actually does that is different.
That is my mother as well!
Speaking of mothers, all I have is good wishes for you and yours, flea. Rough times.
My aunt Joyce passed away at 2:20 a.m. today.
She was a huge positive influence on my life, and while I've been here I've been hearing stories about all the wonderful things she's done to help other people.
I'll post more about her later. Despite sleeping late today (again) I am just exhausted. I'm just going to take it easy today before my flight early tomorrow. (It hasn't been cancelled yet!)
I'm so sorry, tommyrot. I'm glad you were able to be there.
I'm sorry tommyrot. I'm sure it meant a lot to your family that you were able to be there. I hope you have non-stressful travels tomorrow.
