I had a girls' weekend this past weekend with two old and dear friends going all the way back to sixth and eighth grade. We have such a good time together.
Of course we talked about difficult child, among many other things like recipes, eye brightener (you can google Jlo's eye makeup steps lol), decorating etc.
At one point my one friend said ill get you the name of the rehab my niece went to for eight months. She is doing great now.
Before I could respond, my other friend (who is a nurse at a center that has a brand new addiction unit) said: she doesn't need the name of that. He has to do it on his own and he still doesn't want to so what is the point?
We all just nodded at each other. I didn't say a thing.
I still have helping impulses and fleeting thoughts about things I can do/want to do/think of to do, but like she said what is the point?
Today the point is this: stay out of the way and work on my own life.
He and god will have to take care of his.
It helps so much to write and read good thinking. It builds a growing stronger foundation that helps me stay on my side of the street.
