"Whatever" (sigh)
"Fine" (roll of the eyes)
“You HAVE to take me."
“I’m bored! There’s never anything to do in this house!”
“I only want brand names.”
“Can I have five bucks? So and so always has money.”
(Added by me, cLove) "Daddee, I need money for a school thing"

Yet again I hear this in the am before work.

Todays situation. SD17, who will be 18 in a few weeks and hopefully graduate high school soon after that, cannot seem to get to school on time, when she is at her mothers house. What is the excuse THIS time? Her alarm was broken. I swear this girl lies so much, its almost not even worth asking for an excuse. Last time it was a forgotten wallet. Then before that it was her menstrual cycle. Before that...well you get the picture.

Little White Convertible for Winona SD17

Im so torn, that SD17 is getting a (new to her) vintage BMW convertible car for her 18th birthday. Yes, it is easy for a mechanic to get cars. We currently have 4 and a parts car and a boat. But still. This SD17 is lazy, rude, mean, selfish, dirty and so freaking unappreciative. Why shouldn't she have to work to earn this? Why not have her take the bus? She doesn't even have a license!!!

SD17 (almost 18) Winona demanding she have a pet now.

We have the Noah's Ark of a household, and apparently this is how SO rolls. Cats, kittens, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, lizards, fish, birds. Currently we have 1 dog, 1 hamster, 2 bunnies, 2 parakeets and 4 koi. That's a lot of upkeep! I am usually the one who takes care of them, and has insisted SD10 be good about cleaning up and feeding of her rabbit.

BM Boyfriend Fired - Happy Friday

Well not really.

You see, I was the one who recommended the boyfriend (I call him Tweedle Dum) to my friends who own a business. He was making really good money, able to contribute to BM's household financially, and my friends BOTH ABSOLUTELY LOVED HIM. They told me that he was always there for them when they needed someone to cover, the clients loved him, he was very responsible and very friendly, and very nice. (you would have to be extra nice/controllable to put up with BM...)

So BM texted SO, who texted me, and the story just doesn't make much sense.

Well, things have been more or less fairly peaceful since I disengaged. I say hello, goodbye, good evening and good morning (when I feel like it). I make simple requests, and do not lecture or interject my opinion any longer. This has made life tolerable. My disengagement could not have come at a better time, because Skids have decided that they want a 5-day loop now instead of just 3-day visits. This was done without any discussion with me, and I am still steamed about it, naturally.

Antidepressants and SD

I have 2 SD's and one is extremely messed up. In the literal.figurative.emotional sense - and I do not know what to feel. I am conflicted on this one, because I KNOW that depression is an illness and I KNOW that some folks need medications to help them get to that better place in their lives.
