[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 479912, member: 59"] TL first of all a big sigh of relief that today went well and he is on his way back. I understand the unsettled feeling very well. My husband travels frequently too and I hate those times when I feel anxious about difficult child and he isn't home. I have my worries about my difficult child too because I found out today that she didn't go for her drug test for her new job until yesterday but she told us she went over a week ago. Of course my mind wanders and I figure she didn't go because she had done drugs and needed the extra time to get clean. She swears she didn't but I will never know. She lies about everything all the time so we can't ever believe anything she says. It would worry me that he thinks spice is ok. He hasn't accepted that he is an addict and that any drug is bad. Does he think he can drink alcohol? I think one of the reasons why your relationship is so strained is because he knows he has not accepted the program completely and he knows you can see through him. You are right though, you have done all you can and the rest is up to him. You have given him an opportunity to start fresh. I hope he takes it. So now it's your turn to go on with your life and find peace and enjoy doing things for yourself and your husband and easy child again without constantly worrying or thinking about him. I know it's easier said then done. difficult child just started her new job today and if she loses this one she will be homeless, no sober home to fall back on. There is no reason to believe she can keep this job any better than all the others she has had and been fired from. Find somerthing to keep your mind busy tonight. If we lived closer I would come for a visit. Nancy [/QUOTE]
