@Wildfire: I'm getting my kids back on school tasks now that school is off winter break. I'm getting my niece adjusted to my house rules.
Today is good though. So far so good. <3
@Vixen: Hi Vixen. That sounds like a decent day to me!
@Koah: Yeah, I'm sure there will be an adjustment period. Is your niece up for the challenge? It might work out really well for all of you, actually, but there are soooo many variables that may come in to play!

Ko-fi, IG, and twitter.
Haven't tried DA since i don't have any following on there and it's pretty dead.
Also tried gaiaonline since you can do RLC as long as you do some of their currency
but all i get is currency commissions lmao

@Wildfire: the calm before the storm lol
i doubt i'll get anything useful done today though
@Vixen: LOL. Yeah, that happens. :3
I keep getting distracted from stuff ... I'm doing stuff... but not stuff I should be doing...?? Weird day for me.

@Wildfire: The variables make me nervous because I can see what can go wrong. I'm hoping for the best. Keep things calm and my husband can re-enforce rules if need be. She can be a spit fire sometimes.
@Koah: How old is she again? Spitfire isn't a bad thing as long as it's well-directed (which can sometimes be a challenge). Keeping communication clear will help a lot, imo. I'm sure you'll manage just fine! <3
@Wildfire: haha yeah; i should at least be a functional human and get food first lol
@Vixen: Functional Human? There IS such a thing these days?? o_0 LOL. I'll need to go do the food thing again soon too :3 I'm making lentils and ham stew for my boys. What are you making?
@Wildfire: She's 14 and hitting puberty pretty hard. Her hormones jump quickly, and her mom can't handle it anymore. Or at least needs distance/a break while those hormones settle a bit. The whole situation is a bit complicated. I'm basically the last resort card for her mom before she sends her daughter off to a teen facility again.
My primary job with her will be teaching her basic home habits and how to make friends.

Good afternoon (or whichever time of day it is where you are)!
It sounds like everyone is having a pretty good day. I'm almost done with work for the day.
What does everyone have planned for the evening (or rest of their day)?

"You've had too much of the digital love -
I just spent 3 hours trying to troubleshoot a network problem. Turns out my wireless access point router got fried.
You want everything live, you want things you can touch."
@Wildfire: i'm gonna microwave leftovers! XD
see? functional hooman!
@Koah: Oh yeah... I know that place (been there, done that; wasn't a lot of fun, tbh). I definitely wish you luck! I hope the space and different environment (& guidance) with you helps her process through whatever it is she's going through (and she may not even know what it is, or, in typical teenage style, not want to admit it out loud!). It is possible to work through, IMO. Consistency of expectations and mutual respect go a long way...
@Selikait: Well hello! It's a little after 4pm where I am and I'm about to go do dinner stuff for the family who will be looking for edibles pretty soon (teenagers - lol!) Beyond that, my plans probably involve a glass of wine, some TV or a movie, and Voltra ;) You?
@0v7: OOF! I hate it when that happens. Glad you found the problem, but sorry it took so long to get there (as it does sometimes!)
@Vixen: Yesh! Functional Hoooooomanz! XD

@Wildfire: I almost just gave up and sat in a corner when I realized my desktop STILL wouldn't connect to the internet LOL

@0v7: LOL. As long as the realization hit... and I'm glad you didn't end up in self-inflicted technological "time out" in the corner!!
"You've had too much of the digital love -
@Wildfire: It was the silliest thing ever >w> I was like "why...why isn't my internet working still" [clicks troubleshooter] [troubleshooter says I don't have automatic IP grabbing on] "ah. I did that to myself."
You want everything live, you want things you can touch."
I quit Voltra. Read my profile.
@Wildfire: I'm really appreciating the support and well wishes on taking in my teen niece. When I took in a toddler 5 years ago, I got a lot of negative reactions and bad advice. :<
Man, Life has changed like mad since then.

@koah: Everything changes all the time - it is the only constant in the Universe! I'm here if you want or need to chat (not that I have the answers but I did go through what sounds like a similar situation, and at the very least, have survived the teenage years with my two sons). I think it's great that you're willing and able to try this for your niece :3 <3
@MoodyB: Hello there! How are you today?
