[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 584565, member: 13542"] On the big radar screen of life JKF, this is definitely a minor bleep! Don't let it get you down, it's just timing, you already have all the pieces together to knit him another safety net, you've done all the heavy lifting it seems, now you have to deal with timing and difficult child "moods" and irregularities. I'm being to you what my SO is to me when I am about to freak out, he is the one who always says things like "does this go on your permanent record?" (which always makes me laugh) or "what do you think difficult child is doing right now, while you sprout more gray hair?" which always gives me pause, because the likelihood is she is out there goofing off while I try to fix her life! I'm WAY better now, he's helped me to be able to stop the enabling momentum before it starts. Try to keep that perspective, you've done so much in a really short time and you have a plan which will get put into play one way or the other.......so get out that book and relax for now, you're done! He's safe, you made sure of that. Go enjoy your day, nothing left to do, go have some fun, you deserve it! [/QUOTE]
