[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 400805, member: 3704"] Happy Thursday everyone! Sharon, I hope that you are feeling better today. I think it is a good idea to stay in and take it easy. I'd love to hear about the NAMI meeting. Are you finding the training to be helpful? Maybe you can tell us about it sometime. Marg, it's good to hear that easy child 2/difficult child's results were good ones. I can imagine that is a great relief. I have been following the flood news. It is amazing that the rains could continue until May. My heart goes out to the folks who are struggling with this situation right now. Our homes are so central to our well-being. How frustrating to have kids tossing those rocks and generally creating chaos. Sometimes I think we're just not keeping our young people busy enough. I was too tired from all my activities and home chores to get into that type of mischief as a teenager. There is some merit to hard work! I hope that the authorities come around and rein this situation in! We're on day four of being stuck at home due to icy roads. Actually, difficult child and I enjoy it - but the rest of the family is bonkers! husband is scheduled for a marathon at a military base around 90 miles south of here on Saturday. This weather has messed up his training (although amazingly he went out to run on the icy sidewalks this morning), and he is concerned that the marathon may be cancelled. I guess we'll know by tomorrow. easy child is still on tap to move to Oregon on Saturday. He thinks he has found a roommate situation and has exchanged a number of emails with a potential employer. He was irritated by the constant back and forth with the employer. The employer asked him to create a small program and then peppered him with questions and suggestions. I told him that I thought this was a good sign - because if he wasn't interested he wouldn't be emailing. easy child is dubious. He'll be staying with friends until he moves into a more permanent housing situation. He also has a part-time job, which he can perform anywhere (its online) - so he has a type of plan.
