I just wanted to let everyone know that Dave was released from prison back in July. The 16th, and we got married on July 21st. Things are going ok...........but because if him being away we have fallen behind on many of our bills and are now losing our vehicle. It's good to have him home though. It's hard sometimes to get back on track because when your alone you adapt and get your own system going. Then when they come home they try to tell you what to do and interrupt the whole routine you got into. Is the re any medium here?

It's wonder that you guys are together again. Cars can be replaced, don't sweat it. Keep your head up and know that we all are here to support you. Good luck and God Bless.

I am very happy for you that he got to come home. The transition phase is hard however, when you get frustrated remember, how hard it was when he weas gone! DONT TAKE IT FOR GRANTED!

I can relate..we had to let one of our cars go as well and behind on most everything else but PO is trying to work as much as he can and still work his program and lets not even discuss the probation/parole thing. My system went out the window the day he came home. He is the man of the house and I was stepping all over his toes with the kids etc I'm learning to step down and let him manage (even if it's not the way I would of done it)

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
