Update on the Queen2B and song lyrics

So my daughter goes to court this morning.  Alone.  For that I was proud.  I wanted to go with her, just to protect her, because that's what mothers do.  Most mothers do all they can to protect their children.  But off she went, before the judge, and managed to discuss with the DA a judicial diversion.  Most likely she will get community service, have 3 out of the 4 misdemeanors dismissed, and 11/29 on probation.  Whether that will be supervised probation or not, I don't know.   
After she got out of court, she called me and seemed relieved.  I was relieved for her.  Then she sent me a text, asking for money until she could get a job.  I told her that I would help her out on one condition.  Take a drug test to prove to me that she was clean.   I haven't heard back from her.

But I heard this song today on my way home from my deposition.  It pretty much sums up how I feel about Queen2B. 

There's do'ers and don'ters and I wills and I won'ters
And them, that don't even try
There's givers and takers, movers and shakers
And them that are just passing by

Skidrows and winos and some folks that I know
That don't do like I think they should
I thought they were livin' their lives all wrong
Long, before I understood

We all have to walk our own road
We can't always go where we're told
In the end where it'll end up - the Lord only knows
But we all have to walk our own road


I've had some good times and I've had a good life
And I've had things goin' my way
I've walked the high ground and treasures that I've found
An' women people who brightened my day

Then there were times I was caught in the crosswinds
With life - goin' 'round and around
Like a ship with no sail I was caught in a gale
Til I finally just ran it a-ground

We all have to walk our own road
We can't always go where we're told
In the end where it'll end up - the Lord only knows
But we all have to walk our own road

  1. Well I'm glad she's avoiding jail time for now and hope she takes this chance as her time to finally change. Good luck with everything!
