Thanks Nancy for asking how things were going!! I was actually away at a womans retreat Friday night and yesterday so have not been around. That was very good for ME!!!
So my son is back there. I did get a text from him finally asking me to call them about payment. I was relieved about that because I was scared to really believe he was back until I had some kind of confirmation!!
He is now pushing for the bike so that he can easily get to places to find a job. Apparently if he doesn't have a job within 30 days he will have a 6:30 curfew!! good. I really hope he can find a job soon because that would be the best thing for him.
So he seems like he is doing ok. The really good sign is that he does want us to come visit next weekend. I wasn't sure I wanted to go or that given the circumstances he would want us to come. But he has consistently said he wants us to visit. To me that is a good sign because our relationship has been so broken and it seems like he really wants to see us. The cynical part of me says it is just to get something from us...but now that he has a place to live maybe it really is just to connect with us (and get a good meal out).
I am reallly proud of husband and I that we stayed firm and did not rescue him. It is one of the hardest things I have ever done to leave my child homeless on the beach for a week...... but it clearly was the right thing to do and I survived it and survived it pretty well. I am so so relieved that at least he is safe and back with a place to live.
