Yesterday started off with a productive meeting. Went from there with John Solomon to search out things we discussed from the meeting. When I came home and pulled into my parking space I spied a package setting in the threshold of my door. A surge of excitement filled me when I

CONTINUED from yesterday and the days before that: Let me wrap this all up by saying you should know… that what I’ve shared in this series of posts, regarding taking my parental RESPON-sibility, drew out for months.

After I posted my last post I had to come back to my faithful key board because I can almost hear you wondering… When I went home to seek resolution with my parents a few years ago, my step-father was remorseful and changed… So WHY did I !BLAM! him as well?
