My son stayed home from school, but I kept my cool and didn't let it reflect on me as a parent. It may have, and it just might do so, but I didn't let it get to me in a negative way. A way that was my go to for a number of years. I cut myself some slack. I'm not happy about his decision, but he is 18 now. Hopefully he will find his way.
 
I really feel for you Britt. When a child turns eighteen they are legally an adult. It is a transitional time for the new adult and the parents. We started charging our young adults a hundred dollars a month rent. My son did it and my daughter did not want to so she got married instead. The only great thing that came out of the situation was my daughter went to night school and got her GED. Also I have a very wonderful granddaughter as well. My daughter ended up divorcing her husband. But he has no rights at all and is big time arrears as far as child support goes.

I hope he will decide the good way for himself.

I really feel for you as a parent. Been there, done that. My daughter dropped out of school when she was sixteen. She had a job and a car and had to pay for her car insurance herself. I was a stay at home mom and money was tight so we had to make some rules.

I wish you the very best in this situation. Congratulations on not pulling your hair out. Hugs.
 
I am having a good day today. My daughter is out having a iron transfusion and I am home alone with the girls. It will be me and my daughter tonight and tomorrow. We are planning to do something fun. We will have a blast.
 
Today I will mow my lawn. Hopefully all of it. I've been getting bad about only doing so much. I ride a lawn tractor for goodness sakes! How can that tire me out. Granted it is a bit monotonous. At least it is beautiful out and not the least bit chilly. That helps.
 
Very, very stressful. For some reason I have once again taken up an episode of hypochondria; now I'm terrified I have HIV. Even though I've been tested for it and it came out negative. Even though my previous partner had also been tested negative. Even though my current partner of almost a year has been tested negative as well and has no symptoms. And even though I have never had an STD and have no symptoms except for this crazy anxiety. But what if it was a false negative, because there is still like a 0,01 cumulative chance of that happening?

You see, I'm out of my mind. Hope tomorrow will be better.
 
I am hurting today. Being flooded with past memories and a lot of pain and hurt. I am alone which is not good. I need someone to laugh with.
 
I am going with the flow. Everyone around here is at peace with each other and that is a precious experience. So far my day had a few stresses and I put the business on hand on hold for tomorrow. It is a good day.
