[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 65605, member: 1991"] Janna, there are some positives in this. First, you've made a decision you think is in his interest and you're following through. Second, the place is really close, you will be able to see him a lot more easily than if he were three hours away. And third, if he DOES lose weight it will be great, plus you can always take pants in, it's a lot harder to let them out. if they can get him off the lithium, here's hoping you will have the sewing machine at the ready. Or the alterations place, whichever you prefer. In the meantime, there's always belts. I looked at difficult child 3 today - he has ONE pair of jeans that fit. Only now, they only JUST fit, having taken the hem completely down. But round the waist? They still look like they've been gathered in on elastic, because he has to belt them on so tightly. He's so skinny that if I buy jeans long enough, they're twice as far round his waist as he needs. Janna, you've done OK. He needs this, so do you. Fran, our spring is definitely on the way (although it's cold again tonight) so here's hoping your autumn is also on the way. TM, the best thing at the zoo - find somewhere for you to sit where Duckie can shuttle back and forth, checking out enclosures and still letting you rest. Christine, I hope your Monday is better than most. Sometimes we need the week as a break. Sharon, you need to whack a bag of frozen peas on that ankle. It's easy child 2/difficult child 2's 21st birthday tomorrow; BF2 gave her a lovely designer dress (or should I say, frock?) which she wants to wear to her birthday luncheon next Sunday. It's very elegant. Now husband have about six hours to find something to give her for her birthday as a small token from us. Plus, difficult child 3 bought something for her in NZ and do you think I can find it? I have six hours... plus, of course, the extra time she will sleep in in the morning. OK, make that 11 hours...
