It is admirable that you are taking the necessary steps to pay restitution and change the course of your life. Whatever substance came up positive in your urine was ingested in some other way which was most likely a violation of your probation and quite possibly the terms of your employment. She has an obligation to report the violation and it could revoke your probation. She seems to have let you slide with only a warning this time. That's a good thing.
