You can never have enough...

[Lilith7]

I hope he's able to take it in the spirit its given Popeye. It may take a bit of time though.

Very cold again but the sun shines briefly now & then...it would, wouldn't it - I've got washing out.

I wouldn't like it, if someone sent me an email like that. But for a whole group pf us having to walking on egg shells all the time is not good for anyone.

But I would appreciate someone telling me , in a caring way that we all want to help and we are there for him. But that no one deserves to have their heads bitten off for saying something caring. 

Least of all me. I wont put up with abuse any longer. And he knows what I've been through, so hopefully more than anything , That bit stays with him and makes him think.

I hope it comes out well, Popeye & he understands the good intentions which come with it.

Just had the once a month visit from Sweetie darlinng no. 2's three kids & youngest great grandson, who's growing fast & has his two uncles well trained; one glance at him & they were forever enslaved.
He is rather gorgeous though.

Granddaughter & partner have been checking various child care places to get ready for when she goes back to work & some places sound not the best from what she says.
We really need to improve maternity leave & pre school childcare; Sweden has it set up so that the dad has to take some of the maternity leave & look after the baby, & I think that's an excellent idea.
We should be teaching basic parenting in high schools, at the very least.
