Better days are coming....

The phone conference went fairly well considering. My client screamed for 30 minutes (he did not know CEO was in the room) then I asked CEO into conversation and things got a little better. Client will not scream at a man like he screams at a woman. There are people like this. Hopefully we're moving forward at this point.

On Monday Jessi took J to Mrs. Gaddy's in her mother's brand new SUV. Found out last night that my little darling wrote (with a pen) on the leather seats of said brand new vehicle. J knows better than to do this. She was just mad. Anyone know how to get pen out of leather?????? Grateful Jessi's mom didn't call and scream at me because I don't think I could take one more screamer.

The princess is coming home today. Whoo hoo!!! I can't wait to see her!!!!! Hoping and praying she can make it through all next week at Jessi's school. I have a feeling there will be a return visit because I've let Jessi be abused for so long that it might take longer for J to understand this is not acceptable behavior. Low expectations and high hopes.

I've heard hairspray held about 5 inches away and wiped off after about 20 seconds.

I also heard perfume, again wiped off after about 20 seconds.

Alcohol (perfume probably kin to this) again wiped off.

On all - do not rub hard. All might take leather color off (try in an inconspicuous spot?).

After trying these everyone said to use some leather conditioner or babywipes with moisturizer.

Lisa,
Try a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser! It will take out perm. black marker, so hopefully it will work on ink.

Good Luck,
Gerri

Hair spray works. I hope you managed to get it out by now.
