It barely ever stops screaming, day or night.
He or she may be teething, or have colic. Or may be scared/frightened (hopefully not). Or may have special needs and have no other way of communicating. My sons only level for communicating with others was through high pitched, blood curdling screams, until he was 5. His/her parents may be at their wits end trying to get the child into routine. My son slept for one hour per night (maximum) from when he was 8 months to 5 years.0 -

My poor brother isn't having a good day at all. He's given up on trying to come to Athlone with me (guess why) and his laptop is fcuked so now he has to start saving for a new one. He was going to go see The Coronas in September (I think) and Noel Gallagher in August but now he can't. 0

That's sad:(
I hope you'll keep on pursuing college, even without your brother:)0 -

When myself and my boyfriend were in London earlier this year one day we went into the city with my sister and she told us that if we blow our noses the next daywhat comes out will be black, neither of us believed her until we blew our noses...
Think she said it was to do with the underground or something.
The weird thing about this is that it stops after a while! When I moved here, for the first few weeks there was grime everywhere- when I blew my nose, in my ears, under my nails, even when I cleaned my makeup off in the evenings there would be this black gunge on the face wipe...then it just stopped, which I cannot understand
My friends were the same. Have we developed a protective force-field or have we just got so accustomed to being grubby that we literally do not see it anymore??
Anyone who can explain this will be doing me a massive favour!0 -

Yours was sent at a time when the cake and kitten were shipped together.
The kittens ate the cake and then escaped when the containers were opened to replace the cake.

Jane that's so sad about your brother. I suggest you keep telling him how GREAT living out of home for college is from now until the CAO offers come out, in August. Even if you recruit backup (ie, your boyfriend). Ultimately it's his own decision, but up until very recently, you thought you couldn't do it either, and now look at you, rearing to go! Still and all, even if your brother doesn't go with you, fire ahead with your own plans.
Presuming you live in Laois your mom would expect your brother to commute to college? That would be so hard. It's harder (but not impossible) to make friends, it's stressful, it's tiring and it'd cost as much as renting would. I obviously don't know your family dynamics but is there any chance you could try talk to your mom for your brother Jane?
Personally, I finished school at 17. I think at the time I had filled out my cao me and mom must have been fighting because all the colleges I applied for were literally at the futrthest points of the country and I had threathened all year I was going to England. Anyway, the college I got was the furthest away, a 4.5 hr drive. I was so happy I could have cried. My mom cried too, I'm still not sure if it was from sadness or sheer relief I was on a bus the next week barely even looked out the window to say goodbye to her, and I was gone. It actually did wonders for our relationship. Ours seemed a little like yours and your mom, we didn't get on, she was bossy and I felt like she was always one step ahead of me, always knowing what I was going to do before I knew myself. We were really both stubborn, highly strung, fiery, and opinionated, so it did make living together difficult, for everyone in the house.
Sorry for rambling but like I said, it improved our relationship no end. Quick 10 min phonecall every evening, and seeing her most weekends was all the intereaction we had but it was all we could tolerate. You know, the same thing could happen for you, when you're indepedent. And hopefully it will be the same for your brother. it sounds like a horrendous situation to be in, no doubt.0 -

I'm proud of my drunken ramblings! You guys didn't get my flailing about Maid Marian and her Merry Men though. I reserved that for real poor sods. Heh heh.
Also ale made my neckbackarm feel better. Result!
