[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 524408"] Thanks for the advice....especially the Cutty Sark-it made me smile and it was worth the pain that resulted. (note to self-no facial gestures for a while) I am letting go of difficult child's mystery $900. Don't care. Filed first (phew!), difficult child wouldn't dare sue us (we'd wipe the floor with him), and on 2nd thought-not sure I believe he was telling his uncle the truth. I am guessing my brother asked him how he was going to pay for his plans & he needed a quick answer.. A) He's a huge exaggerator. B) Maybe he earned it illicitly - drug money? C) plausible that he may have withheld $900+ as he earned $12/h plus Occupational Therapist (OT) and worked 50+ hours a week all summer. Doubtful that he got it back as a dependent tho. And I wouldn't call the IRS for a meelion dollars. D) NOT MY PROBLEMO + how can you tell when an addict is lying...? (Lips are moving, see A) I set up his turbo tax acct-so I could check it if I wanted to do so or even his aol mail acct which syncs w his iPad notes(bet he doesn't know that) BUT I HAVE NOT AND HOPEFULLY WILL NOT!! After finding that druggie "wish/shopping list" in his synced notes in Feb, I've just stopped looking for pain. (4 bongs/pipes, beer pong table, tongue scraper etc) I am spent. I just want everyone to go away & stop messing up my life with their issues. I feel like a willow tree in a tornado. I am going to find stillness if it kills me...and I am at the point where I am ready to consider radical changes if necessary. PC15 has 3 more years of HS, I can hold out for 3 more years. After that, maybe a small house and a simpler lifestyle in a warmer climate? I may grab H's hand and walk into a happily ever after with just the two of us & occasional visits from the pcs. [/QUOTE]
