Such a long weekend!

Started with DH forcing SD15 to got with me to the ladies' brunch with me at church. I don't know why! I was looking forward to some time away from SD15...and sorry, 15 does not count as an adult...SD15 makes it clear all the time she doesn't even want to be at church! The while time during the service...texting, getting up and down disappearing to the bathroom, etc! Even on the way there...looking in the mirror primping the entire trip, asking me to change my worship music to some better music...ugh!

After service, we met DH at the outlet mall to waste time, as there was another service in the evening for everyone. It was one of those guest speaker weekends. I made it completely clear we were just wasting time...not spending money! SD15 was asking for this and that and having a fit when we said no. Apparently, earlier in the week, SD15 had it out with BM, and she told BM she never wanted to see her again! Well, also, BM apparently told SD15 last weekend that she was giving her $100 for her birthday...so SD15 kept going on and on at the mall about how her mom was being a brat and how was she going to get her $100 from her mom....to the point that even DH finally got tired of it and told her to drop it...that she should probably just forget about the money! All through evening service...same as morning service!

So far, SD15 has had a really bad attitude all day! DH asked what was wrong this morning, and she just said with a tone, "NOTHING! I'm just tired!" We get in the car, and DH tells her (talking to her like she is 2), "I'm sorry you're tired, baby." Really? WTH?!?!? Same thing all through service this morning...and still having a bad attitude!

Last night was golden! We were almost home (remember, we live out in the country), when SD15 announces that she needs shampoo. I tell her I'm not turning around to go to the store...that she knows I only go once a week, and my trip for the week has been done! She got mad at me! I got home, handed her about a week's worth of shampoo samples, and told her I would put her shampoo on my list for my store trip next Saturday and walked off. I refuse to make a special trip to the store because she always waits until she it totally out of something to tell me...she needs to figure out what everyone else in the house has...tell me when you are running low...think ahead! I don't do "emergency" store runs, and I'm not starting for her!
