I did a chicken Parmesan for my daughter's last night home. Homemade sauce and all the fixings... nothing is left now.

Nice.

You all good there?

Hahaha!
Not really....no.
My daughter has been gone since the end of September.
Fighting depression and suicidal urges. She is in a therapeutic boarding school now. Might be gone for 6 months or more.

Sorry Jim, I was wondering because I hadn't seen her in your recent pictures. My thoughts are with you and your family, be well friend.

Thank you.
It's been tough on everyone.....in lots of different ways.

No, sorry.
End of October.
She said her plan was to end it after Halloween.
She had a gun....so we took her to a noted children's hospital in Montana here.

You did the right thing. Parenting and raising children isn't always a cookbook thing is it? I think our daughters have a particular challenge navigating today's issues.

Let's just say I am glad I grew up when I did.
These kids today have it a lot tougher than I did....even after I walked to school uphill both ways.

Oh yeah, I remember those days... I'm about to turn 60 in a few days which is a bit concerning. But at least I'm above ground.
FireFighterZero
Captain Zero!
Ha! Yep.
Good luck on 60.
I unwittingly spent my 40th on an Ambulance standby last year.
I thought we could fix the problems here at home.
Get some therapy...some meds...some counseling.
I fought against sending her away to an outpatient program...like the one she is in now.
It may not turn out in the end...but I won't make that mistake again.
I have been to what seems like an aggressive amount of suicides.

Anyway...you should be fine.
Dad said 60 was no problem....but 70 sucked.

Haha, not really worried about the age thing.
I hope things work out for you and the family. I've dealt with some similar issues but I'm glad to say things are looking better. Just get them past the teenage years....

Spoke with her briefly. Still kinda tense most of the time.
My folks spent the day with her. It's about 250 miles down there.
They would be sitting down to a nice birthday dinner right about now.

Pasta & sauce...
It isn't much, but it's good. Having some Malört as a digestif :^D I'd rather have the Dansk bitter, but I want that to last.
I got lucky on the Parmesan. It was a big furry block in the fridge. I'm looking at it and thinking "I wonder what's inside...". I cut off 6 sides, and lost more than half of it, but I got enough cheese for tonight, and the leftovers tomorrow. Only had a couple tiny mold spots that went deep. Those build character :^D
edit:
Changed my mind on the Dansk bitter. I poured a little to compare to Malört back to back. The Dansk bitter almost has a Dr Pepper kind of flavor; very interesting. I think this could turn into a cult classic over here with the right marketing. Blows Jägermeister away.
