This month has been awful.

DH was fired from his job of 15 years the Thursday after Thanksgiving. He was interviewing the last two weeks and started a new job this week. It's awesome how well he bounced back. I don't think I could have done it. This has really shaken me up, my stress level has been through the roof but I've been keeping it in, just want to support DH right now.

Found out last night SS17 has been vaping. SS17 used his debit card to buy supplies from a vape shop. The card is link to BM's account and she was notified of the purchase. BM grounded him, no hanging out with friends, of course his with us next week, so we get to enforce it. Oh the joy! N.O.T. 

Don't get me wrong I am pissed about it. SS17 lied, not only to BM but to DH and me. I found the e-cig in his pocket when I was doing laundry and confronted SS17 about it. Asked him point blank if he was vaping and he said no. SS17 said that it was a high speed charger for his cell phone, BS! I knew he was lying and told DH. But as usual DH sided with the Skid. I'm done nagging DH about Skid stuff so I dropped it.

Well when SS17 gets to our house Friday night we are having a long talk with him. We are grounding him too. But we will be taking his car away, as driving is a privilege and liers don't deserve the privilege. He will also be taking a drug test, as his grades have tanked and DH and I are both concerned the vaping has lead to smoking weed.

SS21 barely passed this trimester and has been trying to talk DH into buying him a full size bed so his GF can stay over night and they can sleep comfortably. No can do, SS21, DH and I are both trying to get him out of the house, that is not going to happen.

When DH told SS21 he was fired SS21 acted like it was not a big deal and was oblivious to the stress we were under. Not that I expected anything else from him, just depressing.

Merry Freakin Christmas!
