[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 226478"] I greatly appreciate the helpful and caring words. husband, son and I have had an enjoyable morning. A nice breakfast and gifts. Son is helping my husband set up our new sound system...a gift we gave each other. I am preparing lunch for friends who are coming over later.... At some point...we will call difficult child. In my emotional state yesterday, I forgot that I did say she was free to call us if she would like (today). She wanted my husband and I to take her back and forth to her apartment last night and BOTH my husband and I are having BIG issues with night driving. husband found out just two days ago that he will need surgery (he is in severe pain) and I might also need surgery (vision issue). She seemed to have no concerns...just impulsively (big time) wanted to see her boyfriend for a few hours and wanted us to drive back and forth. Lots to the story and of course nothing made any sense. Today has been peaceful. by the way, difficult child worked for my husband for a little over an hour, and with that we bought presents for the three of us (from her). Wel...that was really stretching a dollar. LOL! She has not called to thank us for the presents we got her and one was very nice. If we don't hear from her soon...we will likely call her and wish her a Merry Christmas. 20 years of holiday drama...it's a lot. And Terry...so right....it is better not to think of the future...only the moment. Of course, as a mom, I do hope she is okay (today especially). Right now, things are nice at the house and I am grateful. Thank you again everyone...also grateful for your input. Blessings... [/QUOTE]
