Didn't hear from my husband last night. :-( I wanted to see if he did steps yesterday and how that went. It seems like he has reached a bit of a plateau; and his advancements seem to be really slow in coming. He has SO MUCH...

Almost as soon as we came through the door, the Social Worker saw me and said, "Hi Linda! So good to see you!" She is such a hypocrite. I smiled and told her it was good to see her too. What I should have done was question the...
