Sounds like you men did a lot of good eating! I'm glad you both got to spend some time together.

What you said Cindy reminded me of a Quote from Danica Whitfield... "The BEST part of life is when your family becomes your friends and your Friends become your family!"

Jiffy ~ I do not know what it is about your young man, but he has always had a special place in my heart ever since you first told me a little something or two about him. Although I have never met him in person or even spoken with him on the phone, I do tend to pray for him on a regular basis... moreso, perhaps, than anyone else I know without having met already.
There is something very special about this fellow, Jiffy.

well, our handsome young man got in at 12:30, was hungry and thirsty so we went to denny's :p
ellie, tim, scott, kate, and joe met the bus with me. so we all had snacks while he wolfed down a large chicken sandwich and fries.
he has his days and nights mixed up, that is a small problem, but we will fix that. he and scott changed the oil on my bike, and now he's cooking dinner right now. chicken & broccoli alfredo.

if you are talking about the item we were discussing his age about, no, he hasn't given me anything (it was after 6 this am before he went to sleep, and so guess who else didn't sleep well? )

uh, i'll give you a call and let YOU tell him that! he's on his way to church with his sister. she set up the "date" with him this morning and then called to "warn" him she was on her way. i went and woke him up, but he didn't want to move, so when she got here, we went together, then she & i sat outside discussing our day while he got ready. we are all planning different daylight things to help him with his day/night mix up. and i am not tolerating all night stay ups. lights ARE out by 11 or whenever i decree time has come. day 2 is going ok.... <crossed fingers>

ohhhhhhhhh Jiffy - I soooooooo know what you are talking about with a son and day/night mix-ups. It was so very difficult when Brian was here and not working. He would go to bed just after Don left for work at 5a.m. - didn't work well for any of us! I hope this all works out well for all of you. It sounds like you are all working together, to get Matthew back on the right path.

he cut a couple of trees today, and burnt some trash. trying to earn a couple of $$ to get cigs. but, at least he is willing to work for them instead of feeling "entitled"!
