I started to answer this the other day and had a long response written when Dean slapped the computer keys and I lost it!!! The computer just facinates him!!

This has all been a HUGE mess!!!! Damon finally goes to court this afternoon so we'll hopefully know something.......but it could be as simple as assigning a lawyer for him. We'll see.

Dae Lynn's not going to be able to stay where she's at if Damon's in jail for very long because the rent is pretty high......so we're thinking that she's probably moving in here in a month or so. She's planning on getting a job and getting bills paid off so she's in better shape financially.

She's not sure about her marriage but is just taking a wait and see approach. She's upset but realizes that Damon needs help. She's just not sure where to find it and if he'll stick with it.

I've had the kids every day this week and when I don't have the kids I'm trying to work on my flower (hosta) beds. The house is a big mess!!! Plus there are other things that are a part of all of this that makes it very stressful. Again, the family isn't very supportive and that makes things harder.....not just for Dae Lynn but for me as well. I am so ready for a weekend away!! I've been thinking about going to my Aunt Marva's but while it's nice outside I need to get my hostas planted.......it will be too hot soon.

Diana, I am sorry you and your family are going through this, it never just involves just the person who has the problem, it always ends up invovling the whole family. The judge may court order him to go to AA or some other kind of support group, which would be good cause then he would have no choice in the matter.
Hope you get good news.

They went to court today and I'm not sure what it was for. As long as Damon has a job they'll let him out on work release. Damon works for my brother-in-law and he has to talk over with his wife whether they'll keep him on or not. Damon can also go to the church and mow the lawn and do maintenance if it's ok'ed with the Pastor. Dae Lynn's happy that he'll be able to work. Fingers are crossed that he still has jobs!!!

Also, he has to go back to court on June 17th.

I am really glad that he'll get to go to work and I do hope he still has a job or jobs! It will really help Dae Lynn to have his income. I sure hope things work out.

I want the best for Dae Lynn and the kids. Not sure Damon should even be in the picture. That sounds horrible, but I saw what my sister went through with her alcholic husband. They never had anything....he drank the money. They always rented and the homes were not in the best shape, only what they could afford. Her husband drank at least a case of beer a day. She should have kicked him to the curb.

You all know what I go through with my alcholic spouse....I pray that Dae Lynn can really take the time to see what may lie ahead for her with Damon.
