My S and I had a pretty decent evening together. It started raining right when I got home. I was going to cut the grass, but this pretty much cancelled it.
I am changing the rules at the house. I had him help me fix dinner for the two of us. I also had him help me clean up after dinner. I think it will be a good thing.
We walked up to the park and goofed off on the tennis court for awhile before he went to bed.
Fortunately, my job is flexible enough that I can get him off to school in the morning and leave early. I am experimenting with working from home after he goes to bed.
Then some disturbing news...one of our neighbors called my W and said S had asked their kids if they ever thought about running away. S also told them we are getting a D and Mom is moving to an apartment. W called me about this LATE. I wanted to say "See what you're causing!". But we are both genuinely concerned.
