Hard to come back, but here I am

I wanted to give Sam the proper respect he deserved before coming back with my ramblings. I still pull up his "Miley" column to show friends because it is great advice for ANY star coming into a city to film for any length of time. It should be mandatory reading for all of them.

Having said that...

School is out for the summer and I am SCARED!!! There is NOTHING in this freakin' city for kids D's age to do. It is too hot for the parks already, the pool near our house is nasty and the rec center around the corner is geared for little kids and old people. Most kids will hang out at the casinos because that is where the arcades, bowling alleys and movie theaters are. Not a single theater complex on this side of the valley is NOT connected or in the middle of a casino. Sad.

I am thinking summer school for math because she didn't do very well this year and the credit system for the school district is weird--middle school SEMESTER credits have to be earned for high school. I just had to pass the year, not two quarters in one semester. But that is how it works here. Dumb!

I dread the long periods of her on her own and am not sure what to do about it yet.
