[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 243130, member: 1514"] OMG....the shoes! I wonder if there is anyone here who remembers my post about shoes? Cory and I were just laughing the other day about the meltdown we both had in the mall over shoes when he was in Residential Treatment Center (RTC). Timberlands to be exact. He wanted a pair of $125 Timberlands and I was willing to pay $25 at Walmart for boots that looked just like them. He got mad, I got mad. I wasnt paying more for a pair of boots for a kid to wear that were never gonna see construction than his dad paid when he worked IN CONSTUCTION all week! HE!! NO! Oh but MOM, They are COOL! So what, he had sneakers that were perfectly good. (Cory was my Emelda Marcos) I got so mad I stormed out of the store. Funny, now he wouldnt pay that on a bet...lol. Not when its his money. But honestly, it sounds a bit like he is trying to manipulate you a bit already. Dont give in to the thoughts that he is so much less in need of being there and ready to come home. He isnt the one who will tell you that. Dont believe everything he says about what is going on there. He will tell you all sorts of things. Nature of the beast. There will be time enough for first dates and all that sort of thing. Heavens...first dates lead to a whole nother problem! The grandparent club...lol. [/QUOTE]
