Second son went off to college the same day our oldest came home from volunteering at camp for a month.  It will feel very strange just having our youngest home after our oldest goes back to school....

Well.....today our 2nd son (JM) went off to college for the first time.  I couldn't go because I have to guard the fort, so to speak.  It saddens me that I couldn't go with him.  JM asked me why I...

When is the help going to kick in?  I can't stand this.  The waiting is so torturous.  He was supposed to go to his dentist appt.  this morning and then he disappeared.  Took off to get high. ...

T-Man did go to the assessment yesterday.  The counselor asked him if he would quit and he said yet.  According to his IM.....he wants to drink today.....and get drunk.  Hope he can't get...

   I'm exhausted.  Didn't go to sleep until past 4 PM and I was up at 7:30 AM.  T-Man came home past our set curfew time....again.  I couldn't sleep after that and then.......called our 18...

Again.......wish me luck that I can get my son to the assessment.  According to his instant messaging,  he's planning on going.  I think he expects the police to review what they found.  I wonder...

I  wish I could swear!  I doubt it would help anyway.  Well ......I know I should be happy.  Depending on you look at it -- I suppose.  But I am not happy at all.  I know for sure my son is...

It's my birthday and I can cry if I want to..........  Actually,  I am not going to cry.  Since this situation has become a new norm for me, it's actually easier to deal with.  Pretty sad,...

We all have to wait until Monday when the detective comes back from his vacation; class -- whatever the reason he was gone.  I spoke with the coodinator at drug court and she said all the records...

I feel a bit better today.  I talked to my friend who gave me a name at drug court that can help us.  Just as I was talking to her "our" drug counselor called and gave me the phone # that goes with...

No assessment.  T-Man refused and took off even though it's court ordered.  Called police and they really can't do anything except when they "find" him all they can do is bring him back to our...

Well, my husband and I decided to file an unruly charge because the last straw was when my son didn't come home at the curfew time we've established with him.  He "decides" every now and then that...

It's a town joke here that when someone has a small traffic violation, expired plates - minor "offenses"...it takes two cop cars to pull him/her over.  But.....when you really need a cop and...

I know this is getting old .....me going on about my son.  It's just that I worry about him so.  This is nothing like we experienced with my middle son who went through depression, even ending up...

My mother-in-law is out of the hosptial and is doing fine!  Her intestinal problem had to do with surgery she had on it when she was 3 years old!  Doctors tell her that this incident she had can...
