[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 233527, member: 3305"] Yikes...Not good on the "galpal" drinking and driving....wish one of them could be the "designated driver". I hear ya on the sleep over thingy...it starts like that and can get worse, trust me, lol. Well, an update on my boys...Josh is still with the 32 year old, yes she had a birthday and is getting older, not sure wiser. Apparently her soon to be ex showed up at Josh and her apt not long ago. Somehow Josh ended up outside the apt door while the ex was inside talking to Josh's girlfriend. Josh broke down the door...this is all I know according to husband. Josh talks to husband about his private life but rarely discusses it with me. He and husband are still working together, that is, Josh is working for husband. He comes over nearly every morning and is studying for his "A plus" ceritification, plans on taking a test in Feb. This is all computer related stuff. Josh feels that he must get on the "fast track" to bigger money if he is going to keep his girlfriend around...she is used to money. Meanwhile, I rarely see much of Jarod. He spends a great deal of time spending the nights with a buddy...we call it the "love shack". He drinks alot and rarely sees his son or Mindy. I still see Mindy at least once or twice a week with grandbaby Joey. It is VERY important to me that I not make the same mistakes with my influence toward Joey as I have with my sons. I just started a new thread about "user" mentality, in light, alot because I now think I made many mistakes with my sons, told them what they were NOT capable of doing for themselves and made them fairly needy people. I find myself being very conscientious around Joey and want for him to know what he CAN DO for himself, IS capable of...and to just grow into being a more independent soul. I heard it said so well the other day..."A mothers job is to gradually work herself OUT of a job." I wish I had done this better for my sons. SO there ya have it, lots of reflection lately wanting to do better by my grandson. Wish I had a better update on the boys. Really though, I guess Josh is doing so badly all things considered...OH, and husband told me this morning that Jarod may be able to sign back up with the Army in March if he gets a waiver from a recruiting officer. Don't know if that's possible or not but that is apparently what young difficult child, Jarod, has told husband.

Hey, thanks for asking about the boys...and for caring. Your a sweety DDD. And glad easy child did make it home. I know you must have been worried. Hugs, Tammy [/QUOTE]
