Royally Pissed Off

OK~ I had a really good day today until 4:15 when Taylor stepped off the bus. From the moment she got in the car until now 6:24 PM it has been a roller coaster of emotions. She has had one met down after another.

~Tonight WAS family night. We had planned to eat at JCI (My fave hot dog place b/c we had coupons and it would be a free dinner. Perfect for us on a budget diet...not so much for my WW diet though:) Well, her behavior has been plumb awful and she needed to be punished. My folks are not home and my closest babysitter is gone UGH! So, Michael has taken Jakey Boy out on a boys date. Any other time I would be all for that. Jacob also really deserves this night. He was so excited about going to JCI he even cleaned upstairs w/o any arguing!! He should not be punished for his sister's drama!

So, the plan was to get Cata to come and sit and Tate would pay for the babysitter out of her allowance b/c why should we all suffer and miss family night because she is over tired and out of control! When that option did not pan through I was upset because of course I get to stay home and babysit! She has had a shower and I delivered her dinner to her door and she will remain in there the rest of the night.

The other bad part Caden was going to go with the guys b/c why should I have them all! Well, when he got put in the car he threw a major fit and Michael brought him back in RIGHT!! So...I am feeding him and going to bathe him and breathe him and put him to bed all the while listening to Taylor scream from her room how awful I am. "Mommy I said I was sorry and I drew you a picture and you are SO MEAN!!!!!" She has never dealt with this woman denied her JCI oh the wrath I could really bring!!

So......I AM ROYALLY PISSED OFF!


*** Update: I just made Tate pay me for babysitting her and her brother tonight!! AND...Michael forgot to bring me dinner!

Good job MOM! I crack up all the time at how alike our households are. Sound just like something that would have happened here. Great lesson learned! Sorry you didn't get JCI!

So, Jason wants to know if you could run to JCI and get him a dog
(you can hit him later for that).

So sorry your night turned out like that. I'm having one of those days where it stinks to have responsibilities because they get in the way of what you WANT to do, causing nothing but disappointment along the way. I just want to be selfish and do what I want to do.

ok, done whining. gotta go clean my house... blaaaaaahhhhhhhh
