Hi all,
Well we are still out of the country. difficult child called last night and after 3 tries I was able to get the call before he gave up and hung up..."costing us Everytime for the call!
Anyway of course he is not happy about being in jail, he did say he relapsed, did not tell us much about what led to it, at one point I did ask if he now sees he has a problem with addiction and he said no shhh..... That's obvious. So at least now he admits that which is progress. That's the good news.
But really the whole call was about getting me to money in canteen! He knows we are out of the country until Sunday and the orders for canteen are on Monday so he was begging me to call someone to go put money in for me!! I said no I wouldn't do that. I also said I didnt think we were going to do canteen this time....that he needed to,live with the consequences...that I always tried to make him feel better and I need to stop doing that....an
D that I was really frustrated.
Well he got pretty nasty at that point with one minute left on the call. I said to him that wasn't going to help him that it would just make me angry and then he hung up.
I turned the phone on silent and went to bed,,,,there have been 2 missed calls from him! I would like to think he is calling to apologize because he knows he shouldn't talk to me like that but I know its to try to convince me to get money in thoe canteen,
At one point hoe said dont leave me our to dry......and now I am thinking is his desperation really for some soup and Oreos? No I am now thinking it is to have something to trade or gamble with!
I think I am going to send him a letter and include a self addressed envelope if he wants to write back.
I am sure he will call again today....haven't decided if I will take the call or have husband do it or just not answer,
