Things sound tough over in your neck of the woods- I'm very sorry this is so stressful. As if one needed more stress around the holidays...
Anyway, thanks for all your input on my thread. I'm at a loss to comment on yours at this point - I'd be interested, for sure, in hearing what Laurie says about where you are now.
You are truly blessed with the patience of a saint, and I do hope things get better for you. Have a happy holiday, at the very least, reveling in your R with your kids. They are precious!
