[QUOTE="JKF, post: 628157, member: 12470"] Cedar - I agree! At first I was dreading this party because it's a lot of work and I've been drained but all the preparations have kept me busy. I'm also looking forward to seeing everyone and having a yard full of family, friends, and laughter. As for the cooking, I'm doing the majority of it but some people are bringing side dishes and appetizers and desserts. We usually do it that way. Buy all of the main dishes, etc and have people bring the sides. It really helps cut down on prep time and expenses. Thank you pasa <3 Thank you CJ! Yes the weather is going to be spectacular and I'm so happy about that. Usually it rains (or snows) every single time we have a party and this is a nice change. It's going to be sunny and in the 80's and NO HUMIDITY! Wooo hoooo! Oh COM. How I wish I had that right now. I'm rather on edge at the moment thinking he might appear at any time. The windows are locked (even though it's gorgeous out) and I have the front door barricaded with a heavy chair. How sad that I can't feel safe in my own home anymore. My best friend, who has known difficult child since birth, and who also happens to be the program coordinator for a group home for mentally ill adults, saw difficult child in the town where she works which is about 15 minutes from here. She saw him around 9 pm but he didn't see her. She said he looks like he's lost some weight (which he needed to) but he had a weird look on his face. Not anger, or sadness. Just a blank look. That scares me. Thank you COM for that specific prayer for difficult child. I, too, pray for that daily and I'm a firm believer in the power of prayer. The more prayers the better! Echo, you are quite resilient yourself! We warrior mom's have to be don't we? Thank you for all of your kind words and support and know that I also think of you every day as well. Anyway, I'm going to try to relax tonight. I have to learn to live my life and not be in constant fear. If he's going to live in this area I have to accept that and get used to it but also make sure I'm prepared for the worst. Everything is locked up tight and I feel pretty calm. I've been cleaning and cooking all afternoon so I'm actually tired. I'm going to read a bit until I get sleepy and then head to bed. Thank you ALL again for your constant support. You're the ones who keep me going when I'm at my lowest and I will never ever be able to thank you all enough! [/QUOTE]
