So fed up....is it June and yet??

Suprise surprise......skids came home with bad behavior reports from school again. Its to the point that I don't even as if they got any notes in their behavior folder....I ask how many.

I had already planned a fun dessert for them, so I let them both participate even though I shouldn't have. We made easter rice krispy treats. No thank you from either one....they decorated and shaped theirs... Gobbled it up and went back to their rooms.

Saturday morning I was cleaning up a bit and opened sd10s new asthma meds. She's been out of her old inhaler for about a week and a half...since dh didn't get it when I told him she was out. She hasn't weezed or coughed at all, she only takes her controller meds one puff every other day her asthma is so mild. I give her a dose of her meds and put the disc back on the medicine shelf.

Like an hour later I hear this clicking in the kitchen and get up to see what it is. Its SD messing with her asthma disc (she usually has a pediatric inhaler, but the Dr wrote the new script for the adult disc). I figured she was just curious about the disc so I tell her to put it down that its not a toy. Ten minutes later I hear that clicking again and there SD is again with the meds in her hands. I take it from her and look at the counter.....she's used it three times in less than an hour. So I yell at her and remind her that she only gets one dose every other day not three on one day. She got a lecture on how dangerous it is to over do medicine, and she's sent back to her room.

After breakfast I have an errand to run so I leave with my two boys....dh is sleeping still because he works second shift. So I get home less than an hour later and notice that the inhaler disc is not where I put it. So I check the counter....yep....two more puffs taken. So I take the disc to dh and wake his ass up. Tell him that he needs to deal with her since she doesn't listen to me and she's now taken a week and a half worth of medicine in two hours.

He goes....oh so that's what she was doing. Apparently he caught her sneaking around the kitchen and when he asked what she was doing out of her room she said that she was leaving a present for me on the table.

So he goes to ask her about it and she denies the whole thing. Says she didn't take any medicine that day other than the one that I gave her. So dh calls me to her room to say that SD has no idea what I am talking about. So I ask her....you realize this disc has a counter on it, right? No, what does that mean? It mean that I know exactly how many times you've used this....you used it three times before I left....and you used it twice while I was gone, after you were expressly told not to touch it again. She looked right at dh and lied to his face. So I handed dh the disc and said you tell me what that counter says then. And I left then room at that point for him to sort her out. He yelled at her....but didn't punish her st all. She was playing happily in her room all day, and once her school behavior punishment was over she played on her tablet and watched TV. The only thing he yelled at her about was lying to his face.....never mentioned end sneaking the meds, disobeying me, and lying to me and about me. He even apologized to her for yelling at her ten minutes later. Did she ever apologize for any of it....or even admit it....of coarse not.

My laundry rule is that I only do laundry on the weekends. The skids are supposed to bring me their dirty clothes on Friday after school so I have time to get it done by Monday. But so long as I get it some time during the weekend I don't care. No laundry from either skid on Friday....no laundry on Saturday. SS brings his Sunday around lunch time....no problem. SD however drops hers off after dinner on Sunday. Unfortunately for her I was bathing my two little ones so her laundry didn't get put in until almost bedtime. No way it will get done that night, the laundry is off our bedroom.....where the little boys sleep as well. Not going to keep bs3 and the baby up all night dong her laundry so as of 8pm laundry stops in our house. Her clothes got washed but not dried or folded.

She has the nerve to ask where her clothes were at bedtime. As if I have a magic wand and can have her clothes magically washed dried and folded in an hour. That she expects to be able to leave me her clothes at 7pm and have it done by 8pm at bedtime. I just stared her down and told her to get her butt in bed. Maybe don't be such a lazy a-hole and you'd have clean clothes for school....maybe don't be such a sneaky brat and I'd feel more inclined to go out of my way for you.

Come on June 7th........

I probably have the same disk. I doubt if she took the meds - just played with the clicker and wasted the damn stuff.

I hope she didn't actually take it all.... that stuff can really mess with your heart if you over do it.

But its more her "who give a crap what step mom says" attitude that gets me. Oh she said not to play with the med...let's go play with it. She yells at me again for playing with the meds....well screw her I'll do it again as soon as she leaves. Oh, step mom wants my laundry....I'll give it to her at the last possible moment to screw with her night, and then I can play innocent victim Monday morning when I have no clean clothes and evil sm didn't wash them for me.

When my nephew was about 12, he got an inhaler for his asthma. My bro and SIL trusted him with it and left it in his care. I don't remember exactly how it worked out (this was almost 10 yrs ago) but they found out that he was using it several times/day because he liked the way it made him feel!! YIKES!! Not saying that's what she is doing.. this just reminded me of that story. Either way, what a little stinker for lying and blatantly disobeying.. UGH.. skids!!
