    Apparently the campground messed up our reservation, so the troop is scrambling to figure out a Plan B. No state parks will have their group camp/scout camp area available - we book 6-8 months in advance. We are around 75-80 people with a troop kitchen, so we need a big space.

    So glad to read your good update! Praying for continued improvement and excellent care.

    Taking a break. Having turmeric, peach, ginger tea. Next up: shower ✔️ electronic chores ✔️ grocery pick up - so good to be able to stay in my car when I am sick! Didn’t get my order placed early enough - pick up tomorrow.

    Not such a good morning here. I took some sudafed last night, for relief from sinus pain, forgetting that it gives me insomnia. Zero sleep. A tiny bit of dozing. Listened to a bunch of podcasts. Gotta get up soon. Thankfully, nothing hugely pressing that I need to do today except drive Ds to things and grocery shop. Note to self: sudafed only in the daytime!

    @Eos I am sorry for the disappointment. I hope plan B ends up being Great!

    Praying now!!!

    All colleges should have some way of including social behavior in roommate matching processes. Dd’s uni has a box for “additional information” and she put in a sentence that made it clear where she is on such things.

    I like Penzey’s, which has both kinds and their own blend. SO much better than grocery-bought.

    Dropped off some stuff for tonight’s AHG meeting, since I won’t be there. Picked up Ds. Briefly discussed dinner plans with Ds. We will have leftovers/what’s here. Nothing elaborate. Gonna keep working on some AHG stuff.

    My tutoring center bills for the coming month on the 15th, and they have a strict cancellation policy. Tutors are able to add some grace, but have the strict policy to keep flaky people from taking advantage. Their sick policy is not as good. Yeah, I have a bad cold right now that I got from a student’s “allergies”.
  17. ScoutTN
    Yes!

    Good morning! Ugh! I have a bad cold and feel crummy. Did get good sleep last night, though. Gonna drop Ds at school and go back to bed. No tackling today.

    @Eos I am so sorry and I agree with you. I understand how your Dd feels - same thing happened to me in boarding school and it was awful. I am glad you could talk with your Dd last night and I hope you can both catch up on sleep over the next couple days.

    Home Feeling crummy. Taking meds and going to bed. In Dd’s room, so my symptoms don’t keep Dh awake and to lessen his exposure. Taking some Benadryl, so hopefully I will sleep well. 😷🤒☹️😴 Not doing anything except driving Ds to school and practice tomorrow.

    Given this added explanation and excellent grades, I’d let him figure it out. Gentle, occasional conversations about health, wise use of time, etc., but not micromanaging.

    You can use software to limit where her can go on the internet during school time or to set timers that limit time on gaming, YT etc. Then grow slowly back into the responsibility and freedom that he is misusing.

    Did some housekeeping. Headed out shortly.
