I am so disappointed and frustrated with difficult child right now. I almost feel bad even typing this but, it's starting to get to me again. I just bought a new mobile home and I should be excited to go home everyday and yet, I'm not. One reason difficult child is there and she is behaving terribly. She curses whenever she wants to, and tells me to go F myself and that I am ugly and a control freak. Just hurtful stuff, but then again, she used to say it all the time, so it's not as hurtful as it was in the beginning. I see where I have been gong wrong, not being strict enough. I need to change that, but she's good at changing for a moment to get what she wants and then as soon as she does its F- U again.
I told her this morning to bring a box to the car so we could fill it with the stuff from the old place and she yelled out the door, what F box are you talking about. I am not doing that. It was awful, I was cutting her some slack, because of all of the changes and she has been working hard to help get us moved. But I am going to sit her down tonight and tell her I am not paying her cell phone bill. Something that she really does need while out there trying to catch buses and stuff, but it's the thing that will get to her the most.
Yesterday we found her dog a new home. I just had no desire to take care of that dog all the time. I told her when we got Nyla that she was her responsiblity and I meant it. Nyla was just spending too much time in her crate and she was whining and carrying on. difficult child knew it was for the best and was okay with it. She's tired of taking care of her for one thing. This lady is home all day and is a foster mom, so there are a lot of people around to help with her. difficult child will continue to get to see her also which was a strong point for her adopting her out.
I know what I need to do, why is it so hard for me to play Barney Bad when I have to? She's spoiled for one thing. That is my doing lately. Now I get to have the fun of undoing it. Yuck. Just needed to sound off I guess and get myself prepared for the battle that is about to come.
