Power Shopping!

I spent the day shopping with my Mom and it was actually FUN!

JC Penney has some AMAZING Columbus Day sales and she was just thrilled at all the bargains she found...well...that I found for her!

I think she was impressed with my mad shopping skillz! Told her I enjoyed spending her money for her! We had a pretzel and a coke to rest for a bit after JCP and headed off to a couple more stores. Found more really great bargains at CJ's! Things we found there were really items with tons of mixin' and matchin' possibilities, so they'll be very versatile and can weather different seasons too. Told her it was like Garanimals for Grown Ups! LOL

It was a wonderful day together, we don't get much time just the two of us, and I was happy to help her out! Dad really appreciated me taking her, too. (That way he didn't have to)

Lies and so forth

Lies, more lies, deceit, and additional disrespect for good measure.

Tired of getting lied to, having things planned rearranged, and making concessions to revolve around the one person who can't seem to appreciate anything we do.

Steph's level was over 500 again today...had to get her from school as she was vomiting and couldn't stay at school. Everyone at my office had to rearrange lunch schedules so that I could leave to pick her up. Ridiculous when it all could have been avoided. She's been sneaking food and not accounting for carbs...allowing her levels to run high. Idiocy at it's best, laziness at it's worst.

She sat there with no remorse, no apology, nothing. Basically taking no responsibility for anything and blaming others or situations for her lack of self control.

Sick to death of trying to keep her healthy and not sick or dead! *grr*

Tomorrow is another day...we'll see what lies that brings...
