So much for the great family camping trip


no Well I knew it wouldnt last long.  Drinking on Monday, Tuesday and super drunk tonight. Our daughter got on the bus tonight and he was on the bus and she had to sit by him and she knew right away he was drunk. They got off the bus and she stopped at a friends house and call to warn me. yep he is super drunk.  He wanted me to drive him to were he was working (he cant drive for 7 more yrs) he is unemployed and bulit a fence for someone and wanted me to go get his tools.  I said I am not driving anywhere with you while your drunk maybe tomorrow if you not drunk and if you are I guess we'll wait till your not.  Then he wanted to argue about it so i took my book and went outside of course he followed me but i didnt speak i just keep reading.  He left and when I came inside he was gone.  Been gone for about 3 hrs now.  Wow I am really enjoying the peace, and I feel good I never yelled once.  yayyyyyyyyyyyy

High five Deb!  I know its a tough situation with your daughter, but I HUGELY admire your focus and detachment.  This is HOW I learn...by watching you guys put this stuff into PRACTICAL use.

Thanks for a great example!

Peace
Josee
