This week will give us more information. When I spoke to the vet he was pleased that the drainage had stopped at the wound was healing. Dante wasn't in pain and we took the cone off his head on Thursday night. However, he'd looked good until about tenish days after having had the area lanced the last time, before it swelled back up. So we're watching him carefully this week in case he shows any signs of swelling.
We've spoken to our lawyer about the situation with our middle child's birth mother. She sent an inappropriate gift card - both in amount and purpose. 150 bucks is a lot of money to just drop on a 12 year old, especially since she's trained him for so long to believe in just getting and not actually working for anything or being realistic about it. In this case the gift card was for Gulf. You read that right, not Golf but Gulf, like the gas station. She's also publicly stated he liked girls when he left her 'care' and that should he 'return' (she's still telling people he'll come home) different then she'll know we did something to him and we'd better not touch him or it will get ugly. Charming. Unfortunately there isn't a great deal to be done, but we do want to have a letter sent to her to warn her acting like this will cause us to go to court to get her conditions of a letter and photo update per year removed.
Blake got a few privileges back for bringing his math grade up and his attitude improved some. He's starting to make a little progress in therapy. The little one is displaying that he doesn't communicate his emotions well and it's getting him in trouble; therapy for him is in the works.
In the meantime, not to start any political debates, but I've been more than a bit concerned with the current state of affairs with regards to congress and the presidency. I have been unable to focus on creating things through my writing though I still have some ideas. Sometimes when I announce projects, my muse dries up. Sometimes when I say I can't write, it comes back. Let's hope it works. In the meantime, I've retreated from real life and into World of Warcraft again. If you play, feel free to reach out and maybe we can quest together.
I haven't heard from any authors about items nearing completion, with the exception of Israfil who continues to refine his latest Sanitaria Springs entry. I hope folks give that a good read, he's put a lot of effort in to it and taken a ton of criticism very maturely so that he can develop a stronger story.
And lastly, as always, if you find a story you think would do well here, please point the author my way. If you want to try your hand at it, I'd be glad to look.
Be safe out there.
