I will try and keep this short because, i am tired.*
Our 18 day streak of below freezing weather ended with a spike up to 50's, then straight down again. Though not so much. The result is a lot of snow melted on paved surfaces and the stuff on the ground compacted and then froze. Today, back into the mid 30's.
I hate to predict but, that could be it for true winter here. In the past few years, it has become shorter and often more intense.
My daughter had her trial/slash hearing delayed; giving her a chance to make amends on her own. She has paid several hundred dollars for a three-day intense driving and counseling course. She is attempting to get to insurance to approve a 30 day treatment; that may be a long shot. She is also planning on checking into the hospital in the next few days for a medically supervised detox. Also, she has lost her driving privileges through March. I think that was a deal the prosecutor made with her attorney to extend the period before she has to go before the judge. Or in this case, it's mayor's court.
EDIT: While Cheryl was out of the house and I was still asleep, she took an uber to the store to buy another bottle.
I hope for the best; but I don't believe she really understands the impact of addiction. I mean she suffers, but I don't believe you know it until you try and leave it.
Rewatched the movie Otto with Tom Hanks. I see it as the tragic bookend to Joe Vs. The Volcano. I find the scenes between Otto and Marisol touching, sometimes bringing me to tears. Sorry, doesn't make sense if you haven't seen it.
*Not tired, weary.
