I had a wonderful trip to Africa! I have decided the elephant is truly my favorite animal because they are the best mothers. They really take care of and protect their young like no other! And my son did fine. None of the terrible things I worried about happening happened. We got no panic calls, no bad news. We didnt hear much from him but didnt have much internet access... but we did hear he got another job. And in fact he got another job he is much much happier with and he is working hard and doing overtime! He has gotten serious about this girl who was staying with him and when I heard that I was worried he would do something impulsive like get married because she is from another country and was due to go back... I was afraid she wouldnt go and that would be a whole other mess. I always assume the worst. Well we aw him tonight.... he is serious about her and they are thinking long term but she did go back and they are trying to figure out how she can come back etc etc. So it was not an impulsive move. And these days with the internet and skype long distance relationships are not as hard as they used to be, not that they are easy... So he says he is happy. Right now. He is not using and I believe him. I defiitely have concerns but gosh for now he is sober and clean, he is working, he did well while we were gone, he enjoying cooking and cooked us dinner tonight, has a girl he cares for, and hopes for the future.It certainlly feels hopeful.
