1. Dunno what ta tell ya
Find a soothing place and hang onto it for dear life.

And it's great fun to be very pleasant to people who annoy you. Confuses the hell out of them. Usually takes less effort to be nice anyway.

2. Too right, Ms. Havocmom!
We're doing well here, I hope things are likewise where you are.

Does it work with teenage daughters?

3. My wayward offspring is 33. I survived teen years
You probably will too.

I realize that is not really any help. Just keep in mind, now is NOT what forever feels like.

Hang in there. Down the road wait adventures you cannot even imagin at this point.

A pal, working furiously to keep a rambuncious toddler from damaging himself too severly mentioned that he figured out this parenting thing: 'It's mostly damage control. You can't prevent them from getting hurt, it is how they learn. You just have to do your best to keep the hurts from being too crippling.'

Yes, I told him. And you have to hold the boundaries, but just far enough to keep them stretching without getting too warped.

Now is not what forever feels like. Hang in there.

Want some cake? we have cake.

My 18 year old will kill me if I don't stop worrying about her.

Cake is good> Mongo like cake.

6. Hmmmm... Pizza and champagne?
Sounds intriguing. But I'd rather have MD 20-20 with the pizza. And it's got to be Pepe's pizza like you can buy for $0.99 for the 12" supreme!

I love the taste of cardboard!

7. With enough fresh basil, even cardboard might be OK
Oh, how I long for a really good, interesting pizza...
