You really have not changed much at all... bitch (I mean that in the most affectionate of ways).
Christmas cards Ack! At least you waited until after Halloween!
I had to FINALLY cave in and turn on the heat. The house is a nice toasty 65 now. With temps getting to 30 tonight I thought I should, but I really wanted to wait until Dec 1.
Fuck you dearest :) It's not like I eat like this everyday. In fact it's the first thing I've eaten today. Of course with Eric gone, I won't be getting any exercise either *smirk*
*huge hugs* I'm finally at a point I am NOT fighting with my daughter (well not much) so I feel your pain. They really don't get that there is only so much we can do. *sigh I hope you guys can get it straightened out and find something for her. It sucks so much that college is so expensive but if you don't go its so hard to find a decent paying a job.
I look forward to the day we quit fighting, it seems like it'll be a really long time away though. The sad thing is I could have paid for her college twice over for the amount I spent on private school for her to get a proper education so she'll do well in college. Of course she doesn't appreciate that at all. She acts like I have gold buried in the back yard and I'm refusing to share *G* Where did I go wrong? If I would have been a horrible parent and she ended up in jail, she could get free college courses. Maybe I should go tell her to rob a bank.
She is gifted in the art of making me feel guilty about everything. What teenager doesn't I guess. Thank God for Snarry porn, or I'd go completely nuts.
It's just so frustrating, it makes you want to pull your hair out. You spend all this money on the best private school you can scrape by to pay for, so she'll have the skills and grades to earn a scholarship, and then she blows the ACT. Which she's taken 3 times, and never bothered to study for, because she never had to study to earn A's in high school. She wants to get a nursing degree, and I know a lot of hospitals will pay off your student loans if you sign a contract with them. That's the route she'll just have to take, or pay it off herself. Maybe if she knows that she will be the one footing the bill, she'll work harder and graduate once she does go to college. That debt hanging over her head could be a good thing, she won't have a choice but to finish once she's starts.

It was hard to wait! Everyone knows how much I love Christmas :) I imagine I'll have "She loved Christmas" on my tomb stone.
It hasn't gotten cold enough here to turn on the heat, but I do have my footie pj's on *G* Yes they have reindeer on them.
Hugs,
