smellin' like a rose
T-Man had a meeting with PO yesterday. He was late because he worked me over - begging me to stop to get him smokes and an energy drink. I argued with him but relented after making a deal with him. Haven't done that in awhile but he wore me down and then I thought - this isn't a battle I want to fight.
So he's late and didn't attend the two required AA meetings he was supposed to go to. But that didn't matter - he came out of that meeting "smellin' like a rose"! Since he's leaving today to go on his college camping trip (out of state), going straight to school for the fun week of orientation, and then the next week he starts school ~ he won't be around here to go to AA. He said he also told the PO that he can't possibly attend meetings at school because he has no transportation. She said he's to find a counselor to see once a week and then he's to email her. Right. I know that that won't happen but it's not my problem. On his court papers he was supposed to be assessed but his PO said that that might not happen until next summer. Weird. Thankfully, he appears to be doing so much better so I'm not terribly disappointed but it does seem strange when the courts have all these rules but T-Man (so far) has been able to wiggle out of them.
In the meantime I got a start on my PowerPoint presentation for the talk I'll be doing at the opiate convention. So far I am very pleased about it. I know, however, that I should be working on the first presentation my husband and I will be giving in few weeks. It needs tweaking but I not sure where to start ~ that's half of it.
