Pammy, I am so happy that your son is doing better.  Maybe my nephew will work it out.  I hope so.  He was so upset that he is being made to go out into the slums and take food and water to indigents and pray with them.  The idea being" there but by the grace of God."  It's a christian rehab/scared straight program that lasts 9-12 months.  I am praying this does the trick.

i am out sick today. have a nasty UTI going to the doctors soon to take care of business. Not feeling too great right now but not major hopefully we've caught it before the big pain starts!

of course everyone at work will think i'm out because yet again CT has been hit with another snow storm. only 4 to 6 inches in my area. arggg it might as well be 12 feet as far as i'm concerned i'm terrified to drive in the white crap.

yes its pretty. i love how pretty it is. but i don't have to like it.

so today i'm tring to do other things to take my mind off of the UTI facebook emails goign to try to do some reading of course bill as usual.
wondered how everyone is doing.

reenie i was looking for your food posting i' hoping your doing as great as you were.

judy are you still down? hope your feeling better soon.

Can't remember your name! opps my age is showing but and i can't get the thought of your son stealing from his grandmother and his mothrer. very sad.

I wanna see!!! I wanna see!!!! Hope you had a wonderful time...you rebel lol

Thanks so much for just being here.  I did go down there just to face him and tell im pretty much what you suggested.  He started trying to turn on the tears and wanting to come home and I had to lay down the law and tell him no.  I spoke to the reverend who runs the facility who has a chekered past himself and he says that he is keeping an extra eye on him and kn ows the signs of manipulation and doesn't allow him to get by with his crap.  I told him I needed to have time to get over being so furiously angry and left him there.  I had seriously decided to not go until I found out my brother was going to visit.  I love him, but he is a mess.  It's like we were raised in different homes.  He was and is not ever there when my nephew needs him.  He 's trying to make up for not being a good daddy by being a good buddy.  He would have signed him out.  We had a few words, but as I still have the check, I hold the hammer.  He will probably hate me forever, but I have to hurt him to save him.  ANd oh yeah, My Valentine is here with me now.  He fell in love with me at 350, loved me at 500, 195, and still does.  He treats me like a princess and my Mom like a queen.  He's also the best Dad ever.  Got a silver locket with a handpainted rose on it for Valentine's Day for me when I got back from that mess.  He took me to Max  & Erma's for grilled chicken with tropical fruit salsa.  It was devine.  When I came into the house he had also brought me a beautiful live orchid.  WHen life sucks, Something always comes along to lift you up when you need it most.  Friends and famly are what counts at the end of the day.  Even if they too suck sometimes                                              Happy VAlentine's Day, Love Crissie
