So she sneaks my razors and uses other's stuff at school. So the rocket scientist using other people's things brings home lice, that was lovely! Thankfully it was contained! And then she doesn't get it why I won't treat her hair for her... Uhhh you did it to yourself disobeying and you are old enough to take care of it. DUH. And I decide pocket book method, next time she has to by her own treatment. Denies using perfume at school. I smoke and drive with my windows all the way down and I am still gagging on the strong odor when she hits the car. A chore for the kids is to feed the birds. She throws all the feed in the wet grass and I have 50 free ranged critters digging up my back yard... AFTER I already said to put the feed in the mowed down garden to fertilize and dig up for me. She did this a few days in a row after half my backyard is already mud is when I caught it. What really chaps my ass is we had grass back there and now weeds are what comes in to replace it. So she got indoor chores and drags shit out that will take 15 minutes to 2 hours. How she hasn't caught on I can stay up as late as her any day is beyond me. I am running out of things...
Aaah yes Veiled we had our own episode of this just this morning. Said teenager drags his sorry ass out of bed at 10 am, has his long water wasting shower (even though we are on water restrictions) then proceeds to have a hissy fit when Anthony asked him to do his jobs before he left the house. Let me establish the sum total of his regular jobs.....clean the cat litter tray, empty the bin and tidy up the kitchen after the evening meal. Tough life! Instead of just getting on with it we had a barrage of, I have a bus to catch in 20 minutes (blah, blah, blah), dumps cat litter tray in kitchen and cannot figure out why both Anthony and I crack it at him. Decides to run the gauntlet with Dad (usually picks me, smaller, pregnant, female easier target......so he thinks)got put in his place quick smart. Probably stilled pissed that his washing is not done, been sitting there a week now and will sit there for a month or 3 unless he or Anthony do it. Gave me a hard time the other day when I wanted to do 5 little jobs for me....moving boxes that kind of stuff........told him that evening I am through taking his crap. Whined for the 4th time this morning about washing not being done, like I said to him, you can operate the washing machine. Sounds like a problem but not my problem. Its not just teenage girls!! I think they should all be dropped on another planet until they become human again.
