I am NOT giving up because of my husband. I plan to go forth and conquer! Too much is on the line here, but ... mark my words ... it IS happening.

The newest drug ABUSE use available to teens is prescription drugs. After suspecting this for awhile now, I talked to the school secretary where my son attends and was told what to look for. Get this: they slice their tennis shoes just above the sole, carve out a "well" of sorts where the drugs can be stored ... and guess who has such a slit??? Worse yet is that whatever he's using costs $2.00!!

Then they use a deodorant stick and somehow manage to store them in there because .. surprise ... deodorant sticks are (of course) allowed in school.

Thursday a.m. he asked for a new deodorant stick and I watched as he checked to make sure that it had the "correct" bottom of sort.

And, to add even more "suspicion" to the case is that he was given Saturday school because he was "rough housing" in the hall and was late for class. This class just "happened" to be PE ... the one subject my son was ADAMENT that I not sub in.

Coincidence? One or two, maybe. Not all of the above. AND ESPECIALLY THE SLICE IN THE SHOE.

The hard part is that it's Saturday and I'm impatient. I want answers NOW ... patience was never my strong suit, but God has a reason. I sure wish I knew what??!!!

I still have my faith and sense of humor ... NO ONE CAN TAKE AWAY EITHER OF THOSE!
