[QUOTE="nvts, post: 274432, member: 3814"] Hi! Warm hugs for a special lady! Listen, it's perfectly natural for you to be somewhat down in the dumps and po'd right now. easy child was supposed to graduate - your very first nest jumper - and due to circumstances beyond your control it isn't working out. Add to that fact that although you want him to graduate and move on, you don't want him to graduate and move on. But here's the rub: right now, you're going to be like "Younger Bear" in "Little Big Man" (a really fantastic Dustin Hoffman movie). He was a contrary, a brave who does everything backward! You want him to grow and achieve, but you want him home even when you don't want him home. He's driving you crazy, but he's not. Your emotions are totally conflicting - heart vs. mind. It's to be expected at major milestones in our lives and theirs. How to stop clenching? Keep a cinnamon stick in your mouth. This way it will take the brunt of the clenching and will after a while get bitter and stop the "biting down". Symbolically? You're biting your tongue from all of the things you WANT to say but don't! If you want to get a hair cut, go and do it, but make sure that you're not doing it because your stressing out - do it because you want a change. Worse comes to worse? Bring out the flashlights! If you can't sleep, neither should he! Mooohahaha!!!! We love you here my friend! Beth [/QUOTE]
