Updates? News? Let's hear it!

I'm glad I'm not the one having the baby! Exciting stuff, but I'm with you. Glad I'm not having a baby! I finally have my baby in her graduation year...... She sent along the caption to a cartoon that she saw and it reminded her of me so I'm posting it for you guys: Being parents of teenagers is like carrying a piano on our backs but being a single parent of teens is like trying to catch a piano from 3 floors up... Too true......and all the time, trying to *not break it*. The fall semester ends in 5 weeks. I can't believe Christmas is nearly here and Thanksgiving is in 2 weeks. If I blink, will it be 2005? Probably. I blinked recently and my baby entered grade 12. LOL Love to hear from everyone... updates, gossip, etc. OK, lessee.... Paul and I have bought our tickets to New York for Christmas. Maybe we'll get time to post over the season and let you all know how we're liking it. Pete and T are very impressed that we've actually bought the tickets and are really going. Anyone else going to be in NYC for Christmas, and fancy a get together? T is doing really well. She's just finished her senior work experience and got an A. They were very impressed with her, and it did her no end of good to have such a fine evaluation. We moved out of my parents' place and into our own 2 bedroom apartment and it's working out well. We're right on public transit and I *finally* have a short commute to work. Work is challenging, at times frustrating, and interesting. It's quite something starting a whole new programme and while the responsibility is huge, so are the potential rewards. We're gradually beating the challenges into submission and I'm starting to feel like we can really do something good for kids, which is a good feeling. D and M moved out of my parents' place a couple of weeks ago and are very happy in their new, 3br apartment. They're both working, which is good. I think that D will get bored eventually and go back to university, but if she doesn't, it's her life. As long as she's happy and functioning well, I'm not complaining. Last week, on Friday, she piled up her car. On Monday, someone drove into mine. And on Monday night, T got mugged. So life continues lively, but we continue to stay on top of it. :-) I think we're all *really* looking forward to Christmas this year. Cele |

I doubt I'll get to the city though... drats. Maybe another time. What part of PA? Maybe we could meet up??? T |

'Kate PS... Joelle... you are missed. Congrads on the newest baby in the family. News here....... S is leaving tomorrow for a few days to go meet her half-brother. She is very excited. Her Grandparents are picking her up on the way down there so she will also have the chance to become spoiled while she is with them. They even got her her OWN hotel room, you know, so she has privacy. (Maybe it is they that want privacy???lol) The mother of the baby won't be there though. She went into a drug rehab program. I wasn't aware she had such intense drug issues but apparently she does. That helped solve some issues, like S going with her over Thanksgiving. I said no. But she did have some milestones. First off, had the baby..... must have been tough, she had a C-section the complications. Second off, the doctors put her on strong pain meds. (That is how she worded it..... not she took pain meds, the doctors put HER on them.) Third, S's fathers birthday just past as well as some meeting anniversary for the mom and dad. Anyways, her parents are taking care of the little one for now so the visit can go on as planned. I told S about the mom going into rehab and she didn't like the news to much but also didn't comment at this point. I did point out that she is doing the right thing in getting help and better now then later. But I am looking forward to my week. Hey Paul...... up for a drive??? lol T |

The mother's getting taken care of, the baby is safe, S will have some closure WRT the baby, her father, and the baby's mother, and she'll spend some time with her grandparents. But I am looking forward to my week. Hey Paul...... up for a drive??? lol T And... you'll have time to um.. relax or whatever thinking... *every* damn thread? -joke. 'Kate lol... actually I will be working lots! Have fun??? What the heck is that? Isn't work fun??? T |
