Well, honestly, it's the best place for him right now. The temperature dropped again, and he's been sleeping in his car since November, which is starting to jack up his back. So now he has a normal bed-like surface to sleep on (instead of a car seat), the temperature has to be warmer than his car, and he's getting 3 hot meals a day. That's more than he's had the past couple of months.

My brother's house looks good. Some people need a lot to snap out of it, Tep. I hope he does. If my stepbrother could, anyone could.

I swear, every time I get a steroid prescription for a migraine, the side effects surprise me. Why are my cheeks flushed? Oh, right.

Laura, you're a saint. And Steph, I so feel you on the not!son situation.

Then they went to an American psychologist who is working with sub psychedelic doses for the depressed, and she made sure to tell the camera that while she loves ketamine, she thinks it is best used in the clinical setting.

I was put on ketamine (definitely NOT a sub-psychedelic dose) during my c-section, and coming down off it was one of the most unpleasant experiences of my life, so yeah, I think it would be pretty risky to let patients self-administer.

So, Tim just found out yesterday that when not!son got arrested the other night for driving on a suspended license (suspended, let's all remember, for a DUI), he ALSO was charged with a DUI.

Let me rephrase that: ANOTHER DUI, in addition to the one from Halloween. (Probably from smoking pot, not drinking, but under the influence is under the influence.)

Tim is pissed. And it takes a LOT to make him angry. I've seen him get angry literally only twice* before this, and we've been together for just about 12 years. If you've worn out his good will, you have done fucked up royally.

*(I get angry twice before I've even had my coffee every day, but opposites attract, I guess.)

Oh not!son. Poor Tim. I hope getting arrested helps.

I can report that my SiL is out on parole and at her parents' and apparently doing pretty well, so sometimes it is indeed the best thing.

There's going to be a place where jailtime gets involved with multiple DUIs isn't there?

Tep, you're handling this very well. I'm sorry Tim has reached that point.

-t, I'm glad to hear that SiL is doing OK. I can't imagine everything your family has been through in dealing with it.
