Somehow time slipped away from us and we still had no tree.  It's not that I'm not in the "spirit" but hubby and I just haven't managed to spend any time together, lately.  Anyway, it got to the...

Although I knew it was a matter of time - I am glad that it happened.  Perhaps we can move forward with T. Poor guy.  I feel for him. He's now facing his "demon", so to speak. For the last few...

Looks like we're back to our new old "norm".  All my boys are in a good place.  Oldest is working, has a car, is over the H1N1 that took a toll on him. He's starting to talk about going to grad...

We received a call this evening from T.  He said the ambulance is at his friend's house for him. He had them call 911 because his heart rate went up and he couldn't breathe very well. The ambulance...

T didn't come home but he's doing well (not using).  He actually is down the street at his best friend's house. Said it got too late and fell asleep.  Decided to let this thing go.  I haven't been...

That son of mine - he's something else.  Didn't come home last night and now it's 1:30 in the afternoon.  I still believe he's sober and making the right choices in that area (which is BIG) but he...

I was contacted by my son's former counselor, asking me if my husband and I would present our program to some school guidance counselors next month.  Initially, I wasn't sure if we could do it,...

I'm the oldest of a very close family of 7 children 4 girls and 3 boys . The first 5 of us were born within 4 1/2 years. Yes - my parents had 5 preschoolers at one time.  No twins. Although some of...

T-Man is now finished with his on-line school.  Now the big hurtle will be to get him to sit down and work on his paper. He's been putting this off for months and could have been graduated by now if...

Okay -  I have been told (actually about the way I play soccer) is that I'm tenacious. Yes - when I really believe in something or am passionate about something - I keep at it until I get the...

Time to vent.  Time to go back to Al Anon.   Although I don't believe he's using again, my reactions to T, lately, remind me of the old days.  Because he's having a bad day, it affects me.  I...

We all prejudge people whether we realize it or not. Sometimes we get these preconceived ideas or thoughts in our heads and "decide" something about a person based on how they behave(d) or a comment...

T-Man is not stepping up to plate.  He needs to do one paper - that's all - to graduate - he's had no other homework - he didn't have to study for anything - just one paper that we offered to help...

Oldest son came up to visit us for the day and to pick up his new car.  My hubby found a really great deal for him. He's so excited because not have transportation where he lived was getting more...

Received a lot of positive feedback from many people about the second presentation. Did I tell you that I received flowers?  I thought it was from my best friend because of the first name.  Well,...
