[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 15702, member: 1991"] G'day, everybody. difficult child 3 is making progress. We seem to have finally sorted out the problems with wrong subjects being allocated. I've got some work with him on his trickier subjects (anything requiring expressing himself!) but otherwise he's doing OK. easy child 2/difficult child 2 just got home from her first college class - "I think I'm going to enjoy this course, I think I can do this!" It's the first time she's felt so optimistic about it. I'm glad - she needs a future and so far this has been the only indication. difficult child 1's birthday tomorrow and we still need to talk to him about what he wants us to do. He won't be home for dinner so we'll have to celebrate another time. But when? Sharon, I do hope you can knock some sense into bonehead - how can he get things done if he won't 'fess up? wyntersgrace2 - I hope easy child holds difficult child together today for you.Sharon, I can't imagine what it's like to have that sort of cold weather. Fran, enjoy your warm weather. husband is watching the end of another cricket match - Australia hasn't lost a match yet this season. it's getting boring. The only good thing is all the jokes. Like, "What do you call an English cricketer who puts on sunscreen? An optimist." Or the story of a kid in Family Court who wants to divorce his family. "My father beats me," the kid says. "What about your mother?" She beats me too," he replies. "I'll send you to live with your grandmother then," says the judge. "No, she beats me too," the kid says. "Even my uncle - he won't stop hitting me." Finally the judge decides to award the boy's custody to the English cricket team - because they never beat anybody. I've got to go watch - there're only six balls left in the match. Not that I normally watch cricket - it's as exciting as watching paint dry - but the end of a match is not bad. Marg [/QUOTE]
