Hi all,
I am strong, i am ok, i wont let difficult child ruin my life!! But i a ticked.He is such a jerk.
So we picked him up about 1230 after calling him to wake him up. I did meet the manager of the place who i liked. Before difficult child was there i asked him how difficult child was doing and he said he could be doing more to get a job...there are jobs in the area...and also they do have community service he can do.
We also talked to another guy that actually difficult child knew at the tbs he was at in hs. He has been there on and off since may. He said they saved his life and it is the best of the recovery comuities...he has left a couple of times, relapsed and come back.
So we took difficult child to sears to use his gift card from xmas. Then he was going to show us where he stayed.
on the beach for a week. Then we were going to have an early dinner before coing to the airport. So as we were in traffic to the beach he asked if he could skip dinner. I was obviously disappointed but i am not going to force him. Then he was getting ticked off about the traffic to the beach. Ok fine. I made a comment how i would like to have dinner and he lit into me about how i was ticking
him off. I shut up and quietly cried.
We got back and he hugged me and said it was good to see me. If felt insincere and like bs.
Needless to say i didnt talk to him about anything.
He really is not doing much to help himself. He is mad about the curfews etc.
and has decided he wont get a job until he is off the 630 curfew. That makes no sense. My feeling is he wont get a job as long as he can get by without one...so we are cutting his grocery money starting this week. We will cut it further in 2 weeks. He doesnt know that because we did not have a chance to talk
about it husband will text him about it tomorrow.
I am keeping quiet for now. I will wait until he gets in contact. I am hurt and ticked off that he could not even have dinner with us tonight.
Right now he is what they call a dry drunk and i a not happy about it.
I am not coming back for awhile. Not sure what will happen, something will change but not sure what or in what direction.
It will be good to get home...and then i leave wed to go see my dad.
