Good Job B

 Why did she have to attack him like that? He had nothing to do with any of this. Now he doesn't want to come to sunday dinner. Great. She had to open her mouth and put her foot right in it. Ever wish your kid could act like an adult? I don't know what to do here. Punish her? Do nothing? My dad said always try to line up a putt with two practice swings before the real swing. The first practice swing is a swing that you know is too hard. The second practice swing is a swing that you know is too soft. So the real swing should be in between. Obviously grounding her for the rest of the summer is too hard. As is taking away her phone and all her electronics. Do nothing is but just a a talking to is too soft. Still I don't like to just punish because I am just reacting to her actions. I AM the adult and the parent and have to turn this into a teaching moment. She has to see the only enemy is ignorance. I will have to think on this one.

Simple Start

 Hey - Simple start. It's 4:28 am on 03/27/23. I want someplace where I can just talk. Be honest. There is a lot of things that scare me these days. Lots of conflicting ideas and feelings. How do I open up to anyone about it without inviting their agenda into my heart? I'm tired. Like all the time. I know I have some physical problems but that isn't it. I just don't care like I used to. Is this burn-out? I don't know. Like I said, I just want to talk. I want you to listen. Help me to uncover the mystery that lies at the core of everything. I'll be back in a couple of days. I appreciate your time. Talk soon.
