I made it! The next steps in my recovery seem to be in reach. My granddaughter and I had a very positive week, and our relationship is growing!
My mom and hers must be jealous or are just negative, hateful people, as usual, because my drive home was not even over before their criticism started.
Well, at least they were true to character! I will consider this a positive, and hopefully, they can find joy in something besides family.
