[QUOTE="JKF, post: 607098, member: 12470"] RE and Cedar - I have responses to your wonderfully supportive comments from earlier but I will post them tomorrow when I'm on a real computer and not sitting here pecking away with my pointer finger on my phone. lol I do want to share that difficult child messaged me on FB earlier just to say hi. I replied back and said hi and told him I hope he's doing well. Of course, me being me, I asked him if he was staying at the temporary shelter tonight because we are having horrible weather. It was crazy before with thunder and lightning, rain, wind and hail like I've NEVER seen before. difficult child wrote back saying that unfortunately the shelter is full but he's ok and can handle the night on the streets. He also said that he's taking it one day at a time and trying to do what needs to be done even though (and this is a direct quote) "this freaking blows". Despite the lingo he seems like he's handling this well. From the very beginning he's been handling it surprisingly well and that's something I've never ever in my life seen with him before. In the past he's ALWAYS freaked out and blamed everyone else for his mistakes but this time he knows HE messed up and is taking responsibility for it and dealing with (so far) the consequences in a clam, mature manner. And of course here he is all calm and I'm a mess like never before. I can't shake the sadness this time around and I've been crying for days. And reading his calm mature messages doesn't help. It makes me feel guilty and second guess myself. This is such a crazy ride. I want it to stop now. [/QUOTE]
