It is a constant struggle, and sadly you have no choice but to engage it. But Jack is and will be the better for you.37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1333912009540131399.post-81570210943620441652022-12-03T20:07:40.787-08:002022-12-03T20:07:40.787-08:00You're welcome to use any meme you want from m...You're welcome to use any meme you want from my blog, Pixie! I'm glad if they bring you a LOL or two. And P.S. when I read your weather stats, I thought -- hey, that's the same weather we've been having in Edmonton! I wonder if Pixie lives around here? And from reading your comment to another person above, I find out that you do!

There is absolutely NO reason for you to have to interact with her on any level other than what can be done through her mother. Yes. She has mental illness. But that does not mean you have to tolerate her unhinged abuse.

And Jack, Yes, definitely worth it, Darling Boy with now new Chonies. How is Potty Training going anyway? With my Special Needs Granddaughter it took 'til Age 9 and by then she and Grandpa had to do it together since he was in Recovery from his Traumatic Brain Injury and re-learning everything all over again, including continence. I thought I'd never be done with diapers... but whalla, everyone finally caught on. *Whew* I Love The Most Interesting Man's Meme, Loved that Guy, Hated when they replaced him with a Younger, not so Interesting version, due to his Age... WTF was that even about, they blew it. I've had those Down Days, a few lately after The Accident the Grown Kids got into ON Thanksgiving, Timing being everything, well, you know... it kind of pissed on the Celebratory Mood of things for 2022. *Bwahahaha* Has anything even been Celebratory since 2016? I think not, so lets hope the Future holds more Promise?
