Thanks! The room is about half and half, I am working on some restoration today! Her's is getting messier, though! Interesting, that.
I am pretty discouraged, but, I have been trying to act as if a bit more in the past few days. Hopefully I'll start to believe it! I feel good about actually getting ready to do something, though, this rut has gone on too long. Even bad news would be news, and I might get to continue a life.
The Africa adventure is scary, probably more for the parents than the son! But it should be fine.
Oh, a story. A couple nights ago W asked S18 if he wanted to earn some money (he is planning to go with some friends to Europe this summer). He cautiously said, yes? She said being a model for an art class. He said "what's the catch?" She said "nude". He said "how much?" She said "It's the class grandmother is taking". He said "NO!" She said "she changed your diapers". He said "NO". I don't think the pay scale came up after that!
