I'm not sure how long it has been (guess I should have checked my prior posts, lol) but difficult child#1 is has done so well for a couple of weeks. He has only gone out once a week and has not come home drunk. As usual he is polite etc. at home. He is going to the gym although not as often as I hoped.
Within two days, two separate "friends" have asked him to become their roommates. Neither one are "bad" although they do have pasts. Neither one is a substance abuser. One house is far too close to the worst part of town. Even if they lived in mansions on the lake...difficult child#1 will not be able to maintain his forward progress on his own. Yeah, I know he is old enough but he is not mature enough or together enough. He's been staying at home most of the time at night and turning off his cell so nobody can reach him. He's been sober and ready to work when we need him. When he is around alot of people he becomes Charlie Sheen.
Rats! It is his decision. I'll try to say very little. That's not easy for me, lol. Darn it, he's been "turning the corner" and I've been hoping for the best. DDD
