Updates and progress

So far 3 out of 4 skids seem to be coming around. Over the past two weeks they have been allowed some of their privileges back. All but one has their bed room furniture returned. (Skid#2 has aways to go since skipping school). We will get report cards this upcoming week. Though I already looked online and found their grades, not a single one made honor rolls but their grades improved dramatically since the weekend PawPaw take over.

Nice mom...

Loca Grande decided back in October that she would start paying for school lunches. Made a big deal about how she wanted to help out while we got back on our feet after Loghead was out of work for 9 months. (Would have been nice had she made the offer a year ago when he first lost his job, but anyway...)

Several times over the last few months she had commented that she'd been up at school to make payments and meet with the boys' teachers.

To say the least I've had a hellacious couple of weeks and I feel I need an outlet to let go of my feelings before I explode. No one may even care. No one may ever even read this. But I need it for me. But just in case I do get some followers, or anyone that can offer some advice or caring words here's a little background.....

Never been to mediation before and I have some questions (I know answers may vary from state to state or even county to county) but I have NO idea what to expect. I will certainly be discussing this w/ our $300/hr attorney but any answers I can get from you STalkers may save me some lawyer face time. Here are some questions:

Thankful!

He is also going to go for a 6yr initial enlistment rather than 4. With his military school experience that gets him E-3 out of basic and a larger signing bonus.

I think this is a great idea. 6yrs should just about get him caught up on the maturity curve.
