I just realized that in 10 days, Lazy Boye will be 18 years old. I will have gotten all the skids to the age of 18, mostly safe and sound. AND I CAN BE DONE WITH LOCA!

In 9 days, I deliver PITA 19 to his college dorm. I don't expect him to visit home much. Once he realizes there is a big world out there, I doubt he'll be back for his HS sweetie.

So really, other than maybe planning Christmas around the skids possibly wanting to visit her (doubtful), I really only have to deal with Loca next May, when Lazy Boye graduates HS.

Pardon my language, but holy shit! THERE is a light to the end of the tunnel! 9 more months. Hell, I can do this!
