[QUOTE="AHF, post: 492221, member: 11180"] I'm afraid I cannot file a good report. Some of what's happening is in my thread. To add: Robin Hood flew in on 12/23 and within 10 minutes of my picking him up at the airport was telling me to "have a merry f!@#$%ing Christmas." He was mad because I asked him to stay sober and not to serve alcohol to visiting friends while Peter Pan was home, since they would be drug testing Peter Pan when he returned to the sober house. He later apologized, but the tone was set. Peter Pan came home the afternoon of Xmas Eve and isolated himself except for dinner, which was with husband and his son and granddaughter. Xmas morning, the son and baby girl stayed till 11 a.m. but neither difficult child got out of bed. Finally arose when the others were gone & opened presents, the only good news of which was that Robin Hood actually brought something for each of us! First time in years. Coffee from the place where he works as a barista (OK, he didn't pay for it, but still), and cookies for his brother. No thanks from Peter Pan, no gifts from Peter Pan, nothing. I'd scrambled to get cable TV installed (we don't usually watch TV) in time for Peter Pan's visit so he could watch basketball; he'd claimed he would go over to friends' houses rather than stay home, but no friends returned his phone call, so he stayed home all Xmas afternoon watching TV. Finally a friend did call, came over, and then they went over to friend's house for a short time. Meanwhile Robin Hood called 6 friends and invited them over for a party with-out asking us.
