difficult child's car needed a new muffler so she found a place that was very reasonable and we agreed to pay for the repair. She was very responsible in getting there at 9am and waited the hour for it to be finished. We talked to the mechanic and paid for it and I asked if she wanted to meet me at the mall. Her feet have been giving her a lot of problems so I bought her a good pair of tennis shoes and used a coupon I had to get her a couple bras since her old ones are too small. I bought her a sandwich for lunch and we had a nice visit.
She seems happy and relaxed. I asked about her meetings and she told me every day which meeting she goes to. Tomorrow they are all going over this one guy's apartment and making turkey and watching the football game. She is in charge of the dressing so I suggested she buy stovetop dressing. She said she is committed to staying sober and is tired of reintroducing herself so this time is for real. She said she understands and has accepted the fact that she is an alcoholic and really likes being sober. She has a good support group of recovering young people and they seem like they are all intent on staying sober. She was very grateful that we fixed her car and for the shoes and hugged me when she left and told me she loves me.
It was a good visit, we talked and laughed and really enjoyed the time together.
