Ugly
She finally came out that she is addicted. It got really ugly yesterday morning at her house. I am glad I came to drop off Thumper when I did. Things should start looking up from here for her.
Report cards came in. Why oh why is it that if my daughter gets 3 d's you scold her and find reason's she is not getting better grades? ie; babysitting. Why is it that your daughter who lives with PIA is happy she got 3 d's because she needs to try a bit harder you know switching schools again this year. My daughter has a learning disability. And she is lazy. What is your brilliant daughter's excuse? Her mother?
I wish my child could read better. I wish she didn't struggle. I also wish she would put forth half the effort she needs to in order to excel in the subjects she is good at. I wish she wasn't so lazy and had half the effort it needs to get her room cleaned. I also wish your children didn't think of my daughter as their maid. I wish they all would clean the bedroom. I thought splitting the girls up in the room would help. Looks like it hasn't done a darn thing.
Please quit holding the computer chair down and get off your behind and help. The holiday's are going to be hard enough with no money and quite frankly, a mother who is so depressed I cannot see straight. You sitting in the chair yelling about the house not being as tidy as you like it to be is just making it worse. Making me and the children not want to be around. Maybe you and PIA should live together so you can have your tidy house. Lets remember one thing; I have to work outside of my home; away from my children; so your POS ex wife can sit on her rear end and collect welfare and live in a tidy home. So tidy your children didn't get to decorate the tree because she wanted it done her way. So tidy your children's belongings are in storage or tossed out. So tidy your children don't clean up after themselves because she has nothing better to do than to pick up after them.
Maybe I should ask Santa for a maid....maybe I should ask PIA if she wants to come clean my house the way you like it.

Revelation
So I fell for the pity potty story. So she (see friend below) was wining about not having money for Thanksgiving dinner and they had plans to go to some one's house and that someone got sick. Now they wouldn't have dinner. I took food from my cupboard and gave to them. We were blessed to receive 2 turkeys for our family so I gave her one. I talked to her and asked how her dinner was...They went to parade downtown and then to her neighbor's mother's house for dinner. I asked what about the stuff I gave you on Monday (to ensure the turkey thawed)...She put turkey in freezer for Christmas. I am beyond angry.
I paid her for babysitting Thumper and the bank was closed on Friday and she called me screaming at me about the bank being closed and she has no money and how I screwed her over and I knew the bank was closed.
Give me a break. I am beyond pissed. I think I have to let go of the friendship.

How to help
I have a friend. She has been my friend since 10th grade. I graduated in 1993. We have been through a lot. Kids, divorces, you name it. She has had a problem in the past with popping pills. I hear through the grapevine she is at it again. Since her mother passed away a little over a year ago, she has burned through her inheritance. She is a SAH mom to two beautiful children. One who is almost 14 and the other who is 9. She got into trouble with the law a few years ago and work. Something about stealing co-pays and flu shots? Not exactly sure though, you know they only tell you what they want to. Personally, I think she did it. She claims her attorney told her to plead guilty for a reduced sentence because she could not prove she was innocent.
She asked me for a pain pill today. I gave her one of Superdaddy's. Her husband called me today. To tell me not to give her the payment for working the fundraiser a few weeks ago because she is burning through money on stupid shit. Like what I asked. PILLS. I was taken this morning. I told her husband I had given her one. He wasn't mad but asked me to not give her anymore. I guess she has been filling his prescription without his knowledge and he has no refills left for his pain pills now and when he needs one he is screwed.
What can I do besides not enable?

Stupid song!
What the heck is wrong with me? How can a simple song bring back so many vivid memories? Memories of you. Do you have memories? Do the memories make your heart flutter and pulse race?
I regret not keeping in touch with you. Do you regret this too?
I regret not being able to contact you now. How about you?
I regret not trying sooner. ??
So many memories. So hard to explain...until that song. Than it all flooded back in. Your lips, your smell, your tenderness, your forbidden-ness, the secret, the chase, the sneaking around, then the spoiler and surprise.

In a funk
It has been forever since I updated. Perhaps because I have been slipping into depression. Perhaps it is because everything that has been coming out of my mouth has been negative. Who knows.
Things are moving right along. Everyone in my home is healthy. I keep hearing more and more about the H1 flu and it is pretty scary. I work in health care and they are trying to influence us to get the vaccine. I am still on the edge about it for myself. If i get really sick who will help take care of the kids for me? Weighing the pros and cons of such a decision is taxing on my brain. I will get my flu shot today and probably get the H1 flu shot when it is available. I will not be doing the nasal mist under any circumstances. The shot is dead virus and the spray is live virus. I probably will not vaccinate the kids for either of them. I will only get mine because I need to be well to take care of them if they get sick (and in my job, if we get sick, we could realistically kill someone hence the reason they are pushing the vaccine).
Usually this time of year I have began my holiday shopping. I am so dreading it this year. This year we are pretty broke and we will be making most of the gifts.
Hope everyone is washing their hands and using lysol or sanitizer to stay healthy. Will be back soon.

Venting
I just don't get it. The economy is pretty crappy and people are, well people are broke. Myself included. I have a baby sitter. She is broke. She is a stay at home mom. I pay her decent money. I provide diapers, wipes, formula, baby food; everything. She is hot to get paid every week. Just the other day she was going on and on about being broke...They bought a fish tank off of Craigs.list for $100 because it was a steal. I cannot afford food and she can buy a fish tank. They just redid the inside of their house. Repainted, ripped out the carpet and put new carpet. In the kitchen, hall and living room put down laminate floor! And again, my freezer echos. She came from living on welfare as a child and not having food for snacks and such. We have canned food, and our church helps with commodit.ies so we don't starve. Our menu consists of a lot of pasta food while they eat steaks and such.
Back to the story...my son's boy scout troop was offered a great opportunity. To work as a not for profit organization and get a fund raising activity. Paying the troop for each person who works $10 an hour for working the festival. On a weekend directing traffic to parking spots! You know the flag people. Apparently this work is above her. Apparently, it makes more sense to complain about being broke and not get off your behind and do something about it. I'm sick and tired of hearing about it already.
Sit on your big behind and eat your steaks while complaining about no money while I work my tail off flagging traffic so my children can eat hot dogs and Ramon noodles and my house doesn't get foreclosed on and my utilities don't get shut off.

Summer
I cannot wait for school to start! We have had a pretty mild winter thus far. The kids are having a marvelous time and have not killed each other at home. Thumper is growing up so fast. She has 2 teeth with 2 more coming any day now. Things on PIA front have been surprisingly quiet. She keeps pawning the children on us every single chance she gets though. Not too surprising there.
Brother in law and Sister in law are not coming to stay. For sure. BIL tried to fight Superdaddy 2 weekends ago and than disappeared in middle of the night. I assume he went to my other BIL's house. Cannot seem to get Father in law to answer the phone to verify. That is totally OK with me.
I heard through grapevine that min Mother in law lost her home to foreclosure. Due to helping BIL out. Pretty sad. 2 years ago the house was paid for with no mortgage. Now this. I drove by the other day and the yard was EMPTY. Didn't see in the house but there was curtains on the windows.
Have a blessed week. Lord knows I need a vacation!
