I went to bed last night around 11:00, read for awhile and slept very lightly. Got up this morning and noticed a 1/s empty wine bottle on the counter and an empty bottle in the trash. One empty wine glass on the counter. I had my ex-sister in law and brother in law over for dinner on Friday. We drank two bottles of wine, but I'd put the empties in the recycle box in the garage. I know that there wasn't anyone here, because I would have woken up. This means difficult child drank 1.5 bottles of wine ....not only did she drink 1.5 bottles, she did it in about 5 hours. I got up at 5 to got to the bathroom and she was sleeping in her room.
Now, she is 21 ...but, really?
This cannot be good.
She got up at 9:00, as usual, and spent the day scraping the area around the front door. She was in a bad mood ( I wonder why?) and kept insisting she had done all she could do . No It's an old house and it takes a long timeto scrape and sand. When she was finished and showered, I calmly said "I willl take care of your nedds, and even some of your wants, but if you are going to drink,you need to buy it yourself." She looked away and said "ok".
I will be watching the cupboards carefully from now on.
This is all still pretty new to me. I knew she drank at parties and,since she's been 21, she's drunk in front of me, but not to excess. That much wine, alone, in the middle of the night sure does spell trouble to me.
Sigh..
