We went to Green Bay today. First to visit my mom and then my dad and his wife We were supposed to spend the night and go out with some good friends of mine for lunch.
difficult child was in a major difficult child mode. The car ride alone had husband and I ready to turn around. He was in a high speed, rude, sometimes violent mode most of the day.
When we got to my dad's we told them we probably wouldn't spend the night due to difficult child. Everyone was very understanding and we just decided for everyone involved coming home tonight was the right thing to do. We also needed to be sure difficult child would be safe in the car and at night he would be sleeping.
I feel really bad about missing out on time with my friends tomorrow but know we made the right choice. My friends want to meet me halfway for dinner next week (one is home visiting from CA so I rarely see her). They wrote they could tell I need some girl friend time.
As hard as this was I did feel fortunate that I was able to tell everyone that we needed to go home because of difficult child and felt very supported.
Glad difficult child has a psychiatrist appointment this coming week. Me thinks tomorrow is going to be a long day. Sigh...
