Thank you Dee, and goodnight.♡

Thanks, Dee.

Hello, all.

Hope you are enjoying your day or sleeping peacefully!!!!!

Enjoying the day upstate at a conference, Leigh. A nice lunch was had...

Hope everyone's well today. :)

This evening I told my daughter that I am opposed to her continued relationship with her boyfriend when/if he is released and that sometimes a parent has to draw a line in the interest of their future.

The things she then said to me I wish I could unhear. I look around at this lovely home and wonder how it became so empty. I can't take it. But then again I don't recall being given a choice in the matter.

I'm going to have to get my mind in a better place. Perhaps tomorrow I'll think of something.

Oh Mark, I am so sorry love.
Teenage girls can inflict a lot of pain ~ I know, I was one.
But I truly believe you have done the right thing, the very best thing for her in fact.
You are a wonderful father, and I promise you she will know this again soon.

Huge hugs. ♥

I'm sorry Mark but you're doing what you think is right for your daughter and, someday, she'll see that.

Your doing the right thing, Mark. It'll be ok. Do whatever you need to do tomorrow to get things right in your head. Feel better, buddy.

Truth is I don't know that I can actually stop her. Yet I can't look back on this and have been complacent and therefore by default encourage what I consider to be a dangerous relationship.

Feeling about 100 years old at the moment so headed to bed. I've heard that there's a new variety of lavender that withstands heat/humidity. I shall do a bit of research.

Thank you all for your words. It was nice to here something kind.

Good night friends.

Goodnight dear Mark. ♥

Oh, Mark, I am so sorry.

Parenting is the most difficult job we will ever have.

You are doing the right thing; I am 100% certain that one day your daughter will see that.

Sending you love and wishing you a peaceful night's sleep.

Good morning gang and happy Friday.

Thanks Leigh, I'm counting on it!

I've got a busy day ahead and that's best I think.

Wishing each of you a pleasant weekend.

Hope you have a good day Mark, and all of you.

Tucked in bed here.
Off to dreamland. :grouphug:

Thinking of you, Mark, and sending love and support.

We are here for you.

Hello, all.

Happy Friday/Saturday.

Be back later.

Sending you more love and support, Mark.

Heading out to dinner; not sure if I will back later.

If not goodnight/good day, all.

Hi gang,

An early morning gym time and an afternoon run are in the books with outside chores in between. Today was fairly sunny providing a break from the cycle of severe weather we've been having. Several twisters in the region have caused damage with a chance of more tomorrow. For now though a twilight cup of tea on the patio while listening to the chorus of spring peepers accompanied by a mocking bird singing its little heart out. My kind of thing for sure. :)

Hi Mark :)
And Leigh :)
And everyone. :hug: ♥
