    @pridesabtch - That sounds terrifying I hope everyone is okay.

    @Bex953172 - You seem to have had a wonderful summer!! I know what you mean about not posting. I’m struggling to find time myself at times. Glad to see you back!

    @beachwalker99 Sorry you are having to go through this with your daughter. Sometimes life just sucks! Big time!

    @pridesabtch I hope MiL improves quickly.

    @PackerFanInGB Hope the meds do the trick with the sinuses.

    We got our booster jabs yesterday. Arms feel a little tender but otherwise no I’ll effects.

    Here I am, trying once again to get back on track after a string of busy and stressful days. My daughter's divorce is dragging on, and the constant disrespect, manipulation, and emotional abuse she's dealing with are really taking a toll. The sluggish pace of the NJ family courts isn't helping. This past weekend's nasty surprise was particularly mean and came on the heels of the judge's decision not to hear my daughter's motion for a temporary arrangement that would allow her and her boys to move out. My husband and I are doing our best to support her and the boys in any way we can. We don't mind rearranging our priorities, but there's an emotional toll as well. So my healthy intentions went out the window again....

    How awful. Having been through a divorce where my ex turned into a horror show I can completely relate - my mom was nowhere to be found at the time so your daughter is lucky to have your support, but I can totally understand the emotional toll that takes. The words sound hollow when you're going through it but at least in my case, I found a much better life after my divorce - as did my kids! I met my now husband and we have the greatest relationship, and my girls loved him from the moment they met him (he's bald and funny so that helped!) Had my ex shown any kind of willingness to change I would have stayed and kept beating my head against that brick wall "for the sake of the children." And now - also for the sake of the children - I am so glad I had the strength to leave, since we've shown them what a healthy relationship looks like. It is a terrible experience, but there is light on the other side. Hugs to you, your daughter & your family and I hope it's all resolved as soon as possible.

    Another busy day. Driving to Kent to pick up my youngest today for a long weekend at home. Unfortunately it's 3 hour drive each way and I won't get out of here until 4:30 or so. Which means we won't get back until after 10:00. Ugh... but totally worth it.

    JFT Thursday
    - Work
    - Oil Change
    - Log Food
    - Go get kiddo.

    Went to Mom's yesterday and took her out for a bit, then fixed dinner and ate with her before heading home to catch up on grading and get my monitoring reports in. Didn't hit most of my goals, but we had a nice visit, and Mom was glad to get out for a while. She never fully recovered her strength after breaking her pelvis, and she's decided to give up her car. She's always been a doer, so it's really hard for her to lose her ability to just get up and go. I can get down to her place about once a week, so we're researching additional transportation options.

    Today was busy as well, but I did much better with goals. I only had morning classes, so I met up with my daughter for lunch and did a couple of errands. After school, we took the kids to check out the Halloween displays at a local nursery. It's a huge place that does all kinds of "agritainment" on the weekend, but the boys enjoyed checking it out without the crowds.

    I've still got a huge list of chores for tomorrow, so I'm posting Friday's goals now.

    Recap - Wednesday, 10/4
    Log - No
    Healthy meals - A few too many cookies, but otherwise okay
    Stay under calorie limit - Probably close
    Hydrate - :)
    Exercise - No
    2 chores - No
    Prep and grading - :)

    @Snowflake1968, @TerriRichardson112, @jennysweet58 - Thank you friends for your kindness and encouragement. No matter their age, it's tough to see your kids hurting. It seems like it was so much simpler when they were little. I'm really grateful that my daughter and her boys live nearby and that my husband and I can be there for them. I'll be glad when this mess is behind them and they can move on to a brighter future.

    @Bex953172 and @PackerFanInGB - Hope you both feel better soon!

    @pridesabtch - You seem to be going through so much these days. My heart goes out to you and your family. I hope your MIL is able to return home soon. Enjoy your weekend with your girl!

    JFT friends, I know I don't get on here to comment much, but I think of you often, and I'm cheering you on. You're all marvelous <3

    It's been a long @$$ week, but I'm looking forward to the weekend. Spent a great evening riding back from Kent with V last night. I love hearing about her life. Tomorrow morning S is racing so I'm heading to Pittsburgh solo this evening. Tim is caught up in the incident investigation at work so he can't come. I won't see S until tomorrow morning, but I'm meeting with some friends for dinner and drinks tonight to celebrate my birthday. I'm a little nervous as these friends, former co-ops are literally half my age and we are going out to celebrate my 50th b-day in a college area. Lord help me! Should be fun and I can Uber where I need to go. Can't stay out too late because I'm picking up the grand puppy at 7:00am tomorrow before the race. Oh, and I get to meet S's BF tomorrow, very excited that she wants me to meet him. This is a first. He's a year younger than her, but seems to be a real gentleman. After the race, I'll drive home and hopefully chill a bit. Sunday I will drive V back to Kent, it will be a lonely drive home...

    Only goal is to enjoy the weekend and make the most of time with family and friends.
