Thought for the  Day  


Handle  every  stressful  situation  like a dog.  
If you can't eat it or  play with  it,  
Just  pee  on it  and walk  away.

Haalllloooooo....I have moved into my new apartment, for the most part.  Even had my first "guests" over for dinner last night ~~ my daughter and her new friend.  She baked a wonderful yummy chicken, with her special mashed potatoes and broccolli...and she's already conned me into taking care of her cat until she finds a new place.....next, it will be her, I'm sure!!  I don't mind, as long as she is moving forward and I'm not enabling her....not sure how to tell the difference....any suggestions? 

 

Love ya all, and it's great to be back!!!

    I am so happy for you. It has been a long, uphill battle, but you never gave up. Now you have a new apt. and a new life, out from under Lee's thumb. BTY...How did it go, when you finally moved and what did you do with your trailer? Just curious, lol.

    It went very well, so far. The last day of official moving, my daughter and her new (B)friend were there to help me with the biggest stuff, and we all had pizza with Lee...so he behaved himself. (Sarah's new bf is well over 6 ft. tall, so that helped, I'm sure!! My trailer is still there, with some stuff in it. NOt sure exactly what I'm going to do with it yet; try to sell it, give it to a junk yard, or donate it to one of the charities that wants vehicles and stuff.. . things are moving along, though. I am very happy for that!!!!

    Congratulations on the new place. I hope you will be very happy there. It's hard not to enable our kids IMO. Just make sure you are taking care of yourself first before you help with your dd's issues. That's what I do before I help my son I make sure I am ok. I hope that made sense.

    Congrats, finally, I'm happy for you! Sounds like you christened the place with a very good meal.

    Well, as parents we probably do tend to enable our children. Just a quick guide: Is what they are doing overstepping our boundaries? Are they forgetting their boundaries? Are they doing something which may harm us? Are they doing something which may harm them?

    If the answer is "no", you're probably doing pretty good! lol

    Hook up as in what. getting the internet service provider to acknowledge the modem, humm.
    if it's a land line - there is a ph number that the internet service provider provides. This ph number has to be place on sign in thingy.
    W/o modem reconizeing internet ph #, as not having ph number installed you will get error message.
    Again if you have ph internet service - as in thru your home ph line and you recieve error. this just might be reason.
    1st thing in morning contact internet provider and request a local internet service ph # for your modem.
    Ph company can even provide you w instruct on set up.
    write dwn instuction - step by step.

    Oh ya, on bottem bar on far right hand side near the clock you should see 2 computer icons. click on the icon.
    a box will appear on screen. the screen will indicate either that pc has acknowledge the internet service and even show you at what speed you have service or it will show that pc doesn't acknowledge the internet service.

    Am not sure but at top of screen - it should show Tools
    click on Tools. when the menu drops down ( opens )there should be listing. on listing it should show Internet Options. maybe this will allow you to enter the internet service provider ph # that they provide for your pc.
    It's been long time since I'v done this.
    Hopefully someone such as Hockeymom on DS support group -- physical & emotional support group will assist you.
    Hockeymom is good when it comes to pc and pc programs.
    Sorry I couldn't be more useful.
