[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 763198, member: 4152"] A touching thread. I do more often than not wake up with the feeling that all is not well. And I’m distracting myself by taking clases. Have been doing so since April. I study an hour every morning. Then go about my day. Of course between my age, health issues and that “thing” in the background…my concentration isn’t what it use to be. But I’m grateful for the distraction. Our daughter does one of two things when out of money. Extremes. Usually she is Threatening, actually. Unkind and nasty. Occasionally, she tries the opposite tactic. What is missing is sincerity. I feel like I’ve had to learn some difficult lessons with all of this. If nothing else, personal responsibility (ours not theirs) . You can’t assume the responsibilities of an adult child. You can’t make them do what they don’t want to do. And most of all that life can really be good. This can be put in the background. Life truly is a blessing. [/QUOTE]
