[QUOTE="recovering doormat, post: 220210, member: 5941"] [U]Update :[/U] I did buy [I]two[/I] eyeliners (Revlon Colorfast eye pencil), teal and charcoal, at the CVS buy one, get one free sale. I love beating the system. This is a great product, by the way, as good or better than many of the department store brands. And, I watch an hilarious British comedy called "Kinky Boots" on BBC America that was about a shoe factory up north in England that was facing closure due to no business, when an accidental meeting between the owner and a drag queen gives them an idea to manufacture stiletto boots for transvestites that are strong enough to bear a grown man's weight without snapping the heel off. Very cute movie. I barely did anything productive at all. We're still waiting to hear from the place in PA, but difficult child 2 is completely thumbing his nose at us and the court: he showed up at my house stoned yesterday and ate everything in the fridge, today he refused to get in the car and go to school, complaining of fatigue. Of course he's tired, he was high all weekend. We found another facility willing to take him that is not a hospital but an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) run by evangelicals, and they will take him as soon as we can get him in the car. Several criminal defense lawyers recommended the place to my ex, so we have to see if the court will approve and what they can actually do for him. I'm off to make some phone calls, but this is promising. I'm getting over my hesitation about having him away at Christmas. Funny, but his lack of consideration for all of us is making me less upset at inconveniencing him. Is this a step away from doormat status? [/QUOTE]
