[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 520934, member: 1967"] Tl & Calamity, thanks for caring. I don't think she should go back to that halfway house even if she could. I really have always had questions about it. She found it on her own and I have never felt good about the situation but it was the only one that she was willing to go to at the time. Yes, I have wondered if she was drinking again. I called a couple of times and thought she was slurring her words but she claimed she had just been sleeping. I also thought it was strange that she never talked about reaching milestones like 3 months, 6 months . . . Don't worry . . . I know that she can be a con artist and can lie with the best of them. We will be sure to protect ourselves. She can always go to an extended stay hotel if she doesn't find anything by next Sunday. She has lived in one before. This time she will have to pay for it herself which may motivate her to find a roommate situation instead. She did give us the Wal-mart Visa card that she put the remaining money from her paycheck on and husband has put it away. We know that she had $470 on the card . . . she showed me the amount on her phone. difficult child also seems quite calm. I haven't asked her but I think she is taking the Lamictal again. I hope that she treats this as a setback and then moves forward. I keep thinking about the story in the newspaper about our local drug courts. It said that it is expected and assumed that the substance abuser will have relapses and they work towards teaching them how to handle them and get back on track. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
