I need to vent!!!!
DD is moving again. Can't seem to keep from getting high enough to pack and move herself so asked for my assistance. I gave her two days worth of my assistance and told her to call me when she was packed and I'd bring the trailer over. Sunday I give her 8 hours of my time, needless to say she is getting high the whole time! Monday was the last of the move but my oldest came home and was itching...She has lice! I told DD she was on her own I have more important things to deal with and everything else can fit in her and her friends car.
Thank GOD my oldest GD is the only one who has the lice but you still have to treat the family members and house.... I'm so sore from moving and standing for 6 hours removing eggs from oldest GD head! I'm pissed because oldest GD was suppose to be at her MOM's over the New Year week, but she informs me she went over to her cousins house, which is where she got the lice before! Her Aunt thinks lice is ok as long as you remove the bugs not the eggs! My GD and her bio mother both know I do not want her over there or any other place without me knowing! It was her mothers birthday Jan 2nd and that's why she was over...Come to find out she wasn't even spending time with her mother, her mother ditch them !
I'm cleaning up my house still I guess I can call it an over kill, DD Calls, I need you at the old apt. Come to find out she didn't move the rest of the things to her storage unit, she placed them in the shed at the apt. and her room-mate broke in and took a lot of her things. we moved the rest of her belongings in two moves and I booked told her I needed to take care of my business. ...do you think I would even get a Thank you! Hell no...When am I going to learn!!!!!
GS/S is doing great Cast splint was removed on Friday. His foot was sprain. I can't wait for all the kids to go back to school tomorrow... I need to soak in a nice hot tub!

If she wants to see the kids she has to figure out how to get to our home. We will not, under any circumstances, allow the kids to visit her in whatever hole she's living.
If she moves she has to find a way to do it. She certainly finds enough men to give her money and buy goodies for her. Surely they can lift a government-purchased sofa now and then.
If she needs a rehab she has to find one.
If she gets tossed out of her apartment she has to find a new home herself.
Every choice she has ever made, without exception, has been wrong. But she has always insisted on doing what she wanted to do, and screw everyone else.
So now we just allow her to do whatever she wants to do - but she also has to accept the consequences.
We accepted the consequences of her having unprotected sex, and we're doing it not for her but for OUR grandchildren. But everything else she chooses to do is 100% on her.
Can you tell I just don't like Pinky very much? HAHAHAHA!
Sara, I lived by those rules as wel last year and my life was very manageable. This year I wanted to have a little humanity placed in my New Year. It got me nowheres and fast! Back to the "take care of me and the family I'm raising."
