dyk I need shopping advice, ladies:

dyk my 16 year old DS...almost 17 (later this month) needs a new winter coat.

dyk he doesn't like any we have seen and I'm wondering if you have any great online options for me

dyk he doesn't like anything too loud or with wild prints or big checks etc..but doesn't want to look like an old man either...

dyk he also is over 6'3" and maybe 230, so we are not talking any stores that cater to teeny tiny boys! :)

dyk thanks for your help! (I am so NOT a shopper!)

dyk, the worst part is that he's a manager?

dyk, this morning a co-worker and I were talking about the end of an era in Delaware (where I grew up) now that Biden is VP and he walked by and said something about how he 'really wasn't going to talk about the election because work isn't the place for it.'

dyk, EVERY DAY since who knows when he's been talking about the election and an hour later he was talking with another hardcore republican about how this country's full of idiots

dyk, really, he's just putting me in a worse mood

dyk you might consider reading a book by Drs Cloud and Townsend called BOUNDRIES WITH KIDS


dyk b/c in your exact situation w/ her having to be walked through it, he suggests you don't. She knows the routine, you leave her to it and she suffers the consequences of what it entails if she's not done by the time you shove her out the door to the bus.


dyk it's an excellent book that really opened my eyes to what my discipline now should be doing to help build the kids into adults.



It's not enough to prepare my child for the world...

dyk Friday morning should be interesting here


dyk I'll be on a college visit with Nick


dyk Mark will be on Marisa-duty


dyk as well as getting himself ready for work


dyk I wonder if I should brief him on the routine so he can get out the door on time


dyk he has a basic idea because he's home for part of it every day


dyk but he's always gone by the time she leaves


dyk I'll ask him what if any info about mornings he'd find helpful
