Where in Vermont are you? It is beautiful up there.
It has been sad to watch this, for too many years. Yesterday he said he's not going to quite smoking pot, EVER! He said he's got "the best stuff around" and his friends are all impressed by what he's got! OMG, really? This is what makes you happy? He's trying to be some sort of gangster with the money (was homeless for awhile and now has $ from govt) and the best pot. So frustrating, I know I just need to keep up the boundaries and keep my family close.
We're in central VT and consider ourselves very lucky to be here. It's unbelievably expensive to live in VT and the job opportunities are really limited. Spring is finally here and the leaves are popping out now, it's been a very LONG winter.
