Hello everyone. Super busy week, haven't been on-line much. Wanted to drop a quick note to share that our difficult child is still in rehab. Yay! Honestly, we're pleasantly surprised. 1 week in and we've heard from him twice. Both times, a good calm chat. Not accustomed to that with him, so very thankful for this timeframe. He's got a short-term case manager getting him set up with other treatment and services after his release. That's a very good thing.
difficult child is trying to set up a living arrangement of clean and sober living with his girlfriend. However, they won't have a place available for 60 days after his release. He hasn't asked yet, but I know him pretty well and think there's a pretty good chance he'll ask us..........which usually includes trying to butter us up for a while beforehand.
No.
We love him, we root for him, we will do many things for him.
But we will not and cannot live with him again.
Tried it too many times and know it doesn't work. He's a grown man now, he'll figure something out. He can consult his case manager about that, too.
So, all's well here. Today is GOOD, so we celebrate it. And that's all it needs to be!
