That all sounds great, msbelle!

It all is good. The job stuff is just good that anything happens, who knows where it leads, but getting in this quickly with a therapist is amazing.

Yes, it is, and I hope an impartial outside sounding board will help him make some important decisions. I get the sense that he's turtling up and refusing to move rather than deal with the fact that life is changing all around him -- how many of his friends have now left for college, I bet.

Air Force One landed in the airfield next to my office this morning. I have been giving it a disgruntled side-eye every time I remember it's there.

Theo - part of the problem is that only one of his friends left and he is only 30 miles away. 2 more are taking classes at the local cc and one is working full time and quickly shifting to work friends, but there are two others just like him, no job and no school.
The are the low motivation crew.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
there are two others just like him, no job and no school.
But at some point, won't they just end up sitting in a circle staring at each other, because no one has money to do anything?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I refrained from responding to a question from the ME at another theatre with "let me google that for you". Then I rewarded myself with a cookie.

Thrive to spite them
Yay Mac seeing a therapist and having an interview .
Yay for your interview.
I am making arrangements to go to FL. Bro will be here Friday thru Monday. Well he comes down Fri, goes back Monday. Matthew and I are going to FL Friday.
Thursday a personal care place is coming to meet mom and we are going to make arrangements for someone to come in Tue, Wed and maybe Thursday.
After that I have no idea. Mom's doctor cleared her to drive. If she does she loses her in home PT and OT. She's agreed go wait another week and see how she does before driving. I did drive with her and it went better than I thought but she needs some more time.
I don't have a fracuted bone in my foot (had x rays Friday) but I have plantar fasciitis and hedl spur in my left foot.
At some point I would think Mac's friends wouldn't want him mooching off them.
I hope Sheryl and Mr S are ok.
