….Just to create a balance here of we ARE a real family, Chloe is very disturbed that I would ask and expect her to pick up her room.\u00a0 I gave her time. She chose to do nothing.\u00a0 The consequences are really dire.\u00a0 She has 24 hrs to take care of business or her latest Harry Potter book goes into a time out.\u00a0 Yes, thats harsh and already she is sending me vile looks and putting on the tears.\u00a0 I am really grateful we have this open relationship in which she can ‘vent’ to me, her perspective on my meanness. Because of her lack of ‘team’ effort, she has additional chores.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The above paragraph actually gives vital clues to how she is doing.\u00a0 Healthwise, she is already there.\u00a0 Now its time to return to some day to day responsibilities.\u00a0 Yes, I know her summer was(I’m stuck here as to a correct word suitable for most readers)…ah lacking.<\/p>\n
Her appetite is very good\u00a0still. I stopped to get her favorite donut tonight.(Apple fritters) and thats where we are headed right now.\u00a0 Donut time in 10 minutes.\u00a0 I’m hoping Ivey(our dog) doesn’t jump upon the chair to steal a donut like she did last month.\u00a0 Colin and I have maple bars waiting.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Guess you can sign me<\/p>\n
