Sounds like progress, msbelle. I know that block with admitting being wrong well. #1 son has never been able to hold a job and every single time it is someone else's fault. Everything wrong in his life is someone else's fault. I don't know if he will ever learn to take responsibility. I'm confident your mom understands his nasty phone call is a result of age and frustration. So hard to watch him shooting himself in the foot.
Watched the debate last night. Way past my bedtime so I slept in this morning. I have thoughts, but mostly it is up to the primary voters so we'll see. In a few months, since I have zero confidence in polling.
Samesies, msbelle, on the spelling.Also the awe thing is irritating. All part of embracing my inner crone.
I keep all that inside my head for the most part, though. I don't, like, actually berate people for it out. I just cringe in the privacy of my own skull.
"woah" is totally wrong
Unless you are Snowy: [link]
I know I am somewhat unreasonable about people saying things like "baby cows" and "baby foxes" when there are PERFECTLY! GOOD! ENGLISH! TERMS! for these special critters that should not go out of use, dammit.
retires to curmudgeon corner, muttering
It's whoa and not woah. I saw baby cow I sometimes .
Msbelle I hope that Mac keeps moving forward and that this progress with reaching out to a therapist sticks. You are an amazing mom
(Though not as bad as people misusing "awe" when they mean "aw.")
I've decided to give people the benefit of the doubt that that is autocorrect. Like when people who are new to the area mispronounce things the same way the GPS lady does. The machines are hurting us!!
Timelies all!
Ugh. So Mr. S woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to sleep with us, with the usual results. He was acting up at school again today. sigh...
It's pretty specific to my profession, but mine is "stimming" So many people write (and even SAY) "stemming." I also blame autocorrect. Well, I blame spellcheck.
Oof, Sheryl.
