In another thread I asked for ideas to keep difficult child occupied and out of my hair this summer...
This week is Spring Break from school. difficult child has been having trouble entertaining herself. NO chores....lots of sitting around. I sent her outdoors because it was such a gorgeous day - so she went out to our 10 x 10 ft patio and walked in circles.
Today - idiot that I am - I offered to take her and her new boyfriend to the mall. Drove them all the way out there (with him blasting his ipod so loudly in his ears I could hear it over the car's stereo) dropped them off and told them I would pick them up at 2:15.
Well, 2:15 came and went...
nothing.
Checked the store...
nothing.
Well, I had to get home to let my dogs outside before their bladders burst so I left.
Told husband about it...
he is FUMING!
He is going out to that mall when he gets off work at 5. *I* would not want to be in that car for the ride home...
(That is, if they are still at the mall and will get in the car.)
