Thanks youse guys. ;-))
Hey I will enjoy myself & guess what.........
I'm actually not worrying about my son! Last week away was the first time for a LONG time - years actually! that there hasn't been some sort of problem or crisis for him back in our town, when we were away....usually ending with him phoning us!
But touch wood, he's doing very well. Got his own little house; sharing with a good-choice friend (who is new in our town & is still looking for a job, which makes it a big financial pressure for my son, apart from that it's good).
I have had so many years of s**t happening with my son, that I needed a concrete reminder of how well he's doing. So I put a prety glass on the window-sill behind my sink. For each good thing or time he did well despite circumstances, etc, I put in a pretty marble. (I started this last month, but thought back to the beginning of May for events).....the jar is full!!!
Even stuff like, "went to work even though he was REALLY stressed"
So, I'm starting to realize that things are really changing.
Lovely sunny day & supposed to stay nice for a bit.
See ya when I get back.
