Pelosi has the ability to turn off the power and the lights in the House of Rep if she so chooses.
So...I doubt he wants his Tresemme Superhold hair near candles.
I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
My assistant gave his two weeks notice today. This is not ideal.

I am so exhausted emotionally. mac lied about doing school work. Not once, but twice. Straight to my face lied. He had two weeks to do the work, and as far as I can tell he has done none. He does not have the packet of work at home and they do not have lockers at school, so where is it? He is now not talking to me, just went to bed. He will have no wireless unless he shows me he is working on school things.
I honestly think next August will see me changing the locks on the house and him couch surfing with no plan.
I cannot make him go to therapy. Cannot make him go into the military. All I can actually do is offer him options and then keep him from squatting in this house. I never saw this being motherhood.

This is why parenthood is not for the fainthearted. He's on the cusp of adulthood and some of that is going to have to come from him. ::hugs::

This actually might keep him from graduating.
no car, no job, low Cs in all classes, no career interests, no plan.
I just keep re-working the Animal House quote
uneducated, unmotivated, and unemployed is no way to go through life.

Because books.
Some lessons they really have to learn on their own, msbelle, even when it's nightmarish to watch them do it. I'm sorry it's been so hard. He really doesn't get how lucky he is.

Yikes, that's never good. Speeding finding-a-new-assistant to you.
Laura, sending all the love. You're such a steady, strong heart for your family. I hope they know how lucky they are, too.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Started the day by realizing I left my ID badge at work. Had to go to the Visitors Center, on the other side of campus. By the time I got to my usual parking garage, it was full, so I had to park a few blocks up. Luckily my badge was in fact still in the computer I was using yesterday afternoon. Where is my brain....

Britbox sent me an ad for a wonderful new period drama . . . set in the 1960s.
