He did it again......

[DianaB]

I've waited to post this because I'm just so upset over it......Damon got drunk again while we were in Texas. I got a call from Dae Lynn so upset and crying so hard that I could barely understand what she was saying. I hate when this happens.

Damon came home on Wednesday night and told Dae Lynn that he was going back to the shop to work late (something that farmers often do) so she let him take the car so she wouldn't have to get up at 3 a.m. and pick him up (Damon doesn't have a license because of prior problems before they were married and doesn't drive hardly ever.) Anyway when she got up the next morning he hadn't come home. I'm not sure how she found out that he was in jail but it ends up that Damon went and got drunk, drove around in a farmer's planted corn field, got stuck, walked to a nearby house, got beligerent with the homeowner so he called the sheriff, got beligerent with the sheriff, tore up the inside of Dae Lynn's car, and ended up in jail.

The last time that Damon was in jail the judge told him that if he ever came back he'd be facing jail time so we're pretty sure that he's looking a year or possibly two in jail.

Dae Lynn and Damon had found a really, really nice double-wide trailer and were looking for financing and were trying to figure out how to get it instead of paying rent. I guess Damon's Mom called Dae Lynn and blamed her for causing too much stress on Damon. Dae Lynn sent her a text afterwards and let her know that she didn't appreciate what she had to say. I was proud of her for standing up for herself.

Dae Lynn's doing well. She knows that she's going to have to get a job and go on with her life. She's taking everything slowly and not making any quick decisions. She knows that with Damon in jail that there's no hurry to make any decisions. I can tell sometimes when she comes over that she's been crying and it breaks my heart.

Please keep her and the kids in your prayers. Thanks!!!
