Got a call from school.  No surprise the way things have been going.  Caught smoking.  Assistant principal tells me he's going to receive a 5 to 3 in school suspension rather than an out of...

Okay - my mission today is to work on me.  T-Man sneaked out of the house sometime last night -- I refuse to get worked up about it.  I will, obviously deal with it when he wakes, but I am not...

Thank you all for pointing out that should consider counseling.  I have considered it but what I really need to do is learn to work the Al Anon better.  I know I've fallen back into some of my old...

If wishes were horses......beggars would ride.  That's why some wishes are worthless.  How many beggars get the chance to ride?  Many of us have wishes.....many of which.....would never come close...

I know I have a lot of "Frustrating" journal entries - but that's just the way I've been feeling, lately.   I am just so tired of my husband overriding me on a regular basis.  It doesn't matter...

Emotions ran high Friday night when T snuck out and didn't come home.  T was to be grounded because of his relapse and his behavior toward the assistant principal.  Friday nights hubby and I play...

I know a lot can transpire in one day but we ain't starting out very well.  I think T is giving up.  I can't get him out of bed.  He is already late and knows I won't call in an excuse for him. ...

Got a call from the attendance lady....AGAIN!  Everyday this week.  T wanted to come home (always around 10).  I don't know why they call me.  He said he has nothing to do because the students...

Yes - T is still home on a school morning at 9AM.  He is still feeling the side effects from his weekend usage (the lack of sleep part).  In the past I would nag him, yell at him, and threaten him...

He relapsed.  We ended up in the emergency room and return home until 5AM.  Thankfully he's okay.  He ingested mushrooms and had a bad reaction to them.  Mushrooms don't show up in any testing --...

Heard from the detective.  He thinks what I proposed is an excellent idea.  Detective K said he's had numerous parents approach him for information and he didn't have any.  Actually, I find that...

The other night, Tuesday, my husband and I went to the police station community house for parents and adults to listen to a panel talk about, of all things ....drugs!  We went because one of the...

T is back with his gf.  I did say I wondered how long it would last.  Maybe this was the wake up call?  Whatever.  Teenage drama is so exhausting......always when there is a girl in the...

Wow - Somethings aren't always like they seem.  T gave me a difficult time about going to tutoring, thought he was manipulating by telling me he's depressed, but there was something more going on...
