THAT DAMN MAN!!!!!
OS FINALLY starts talking tonight.  He was talking to me about why
he's acting the way he is, why he's so angry.

Well, it happened.  Last night, when Jennifer ordered her margarita, she got

<<okay, Jennifer... I posted, it.... HAPPY now????  ;-))))))

I am finally back after a few months of having a deceased computer. Hope
everyone is doing well. My little boy is almost five months old now. He's a
little sweetheart! Even if my computer had not died I probably would not
have had the time to post much anyway. I could really catch ...

All of these stories about Teeagers.Behaving.Badly (doesn't that bring to mind

for SD to raise them. SD is presently 20 years old. Our ...

We don't know what to do anymore.  I've tried to write the whole story

it all.

I'm missing a whole heap of posts according to google, is anyone else having

BM sent a reasonable e-mail.  It's quite clear that she must have consulted
an attorney and found out that there's no way we could be forced to provide
her with SD's items.  She even wrote, "I understand your position of not
