Long time, no see, everyone

I'm still doing that divorced single mom thing. Had a job promotion in the fall which has been rewarding in both that it's challenging and in pay.

Ahh the boys...I'm at the cusp of having three teenage sons, holy sweet lord. DS15, DS12, DS11.

DS15 has had quite a maladjustment into high school. Which has given me more stress than anything, nothing like getting into trouble or anything, but a serious bout with school refusal.

DS12, I have my hands full with this one. He's all piddidle and vinegar. Not in school, of course, he bottles it all up for home.

DS11 has taken the family by storm and in spite of his initial developmental delays and learning disabilities found himself with his very first gold star report card-honor roll.

And growing.....these boys are growing like weeds. DS15 is about to surpass my 6' frame. He was 5'10" a couple of weeks ago for his annual physical. I worry about iron with him, to be candid as far as the school refusal went. It has been like never ending exhaustion for him, hence the bearish and perhaps hormonal outbursts most of those mornings. He's started a state supported and accredited online and interactive school which even offers AP and archived classes and coursework.

My health still seems rather stable. I've certainly pushed my own checkups and everything to the background in the hustle and bustle of all these changes. Even the job puts me full time, but more teacher's hours.

We've had some quality family adventures this year. They had their first times on an airplane to go West for my dad's wedding. And we are just coming off a spring vacation week.

When I ever saw the date of my last log in, my jaw did drop.
