Oh no....I had to inform SD5 that due to the fact that there is SNOW on the ground that yes....you can not go barefoot and wear flip flops...you have to wear socks and shoes. She had a meltdown. A complete, flippin FIT! After trying to calm her and speak to her rationally and her acting like it is the dawn of Armageddon I told her I was going to close her bedroom door and that she could come out when she had a grip of herself and could behave appropriately...with socks on! I shut the door. I was out of the hallway for maybe 1 full minute when daddy ran to her room and rushed in.

Just got home from the mall with SD13. I took her back to school shopping. She claimed PMS & menstrual cramps/headache the whole time so she was not the most pleasant young lady...yet she managed to pick out 250.00 worth of clothes. Then we leave the mall....and I get no thank you, no I appreciate it...NOTHING. She walks in the door once we get home and dumps the bags of clothes in her room grabs a blanket & a pillow off of her bed, comes out to the living room and flings herself onto the couch.

After a detailed conversation with SD13's BM this evening we have learned of a new fun game SD13 has been playing. When SD13 is with us she complains about BM's other kids; sibs sis11 and bro9. She says they steal from her, break her things, lie, smoke, swear, etc...and there are no consequences yet SD13 gets in trouble all the time.

If you read at all my one other blog post then you know that I am curious to see what happens with my SD13 and her corn detassling job. I just suggested to DH that he call SD13 and ask her if she was happy, excited, and ready for tomorrow. He looked at me and said "You do it, your the one that cares". WTF!? I don't do it because she doesn't give to squirts about hearing from me...a call from him however would probably make her night. I waited about an hour and threw him the phone and said "Try to call SD4". Without even blinking he picked up the phone and dialed the number.
