Fingers crossed, msbelle. Also Sheryl.

Tons of fingers crossing for msbelle and Sheryl.
Tiniest of victories this morning -- I have a dress I'm not crazy about that seemed good for the weather today, and I suddenly thought to roll up the sleeves and that fixed it! Now it all makes sense. Maybe I really never wear long sleeves??
Long sleeves bug me too. This is inconvenient when I am in Otter Lake. I don't think I own any long sleeves in Florida, other than lightweight jackets. Every single long sleeve shirt I have here was a handmedown from my sister.
I always roll up long sleeves unless I'm out in sub-zero weather. I don't like much else on my wrists either (watches, bracelets, etc.). The 3/4 length sleeve trend was nice while it lasted.
I have driven Mac to a social services agency this morning for him to inquire about help getting work and housing.
So this is my life now. Crying in parking lot while my kid goes and explains being homeless at 18. I'm a monster.
You're not, msbelle. You're doing what every parent is supposed to do -- teaching your child how to be self-reliant and independent in the world. He's made it kind of clear he won't learn that unless really pushed. This is a good thing, truly.

You are showing remarkable strength, mabelle. I wish I had been more firm with my son, and now I have a 27 yo teenager. Mac had plenty of choices. I'm sorry he has made it so hard on himself. Love and hugs.
