Seussical
adding the # to the street on the envelop is usually handy isn't it? husband sent difficult child 1 two money orders over the weekend. I kept getting emails saying where is the envelop from the staff. I kept asking did you really mail this out.
He stomps into the living room tonight after my comment and says this is the other envelop I made out when I did that one so I would be ready next time. I caught a quick glance and told him to come back. He refused. So I followed him to his space and pointed out what was wrong with the envelop. No street number. The street name is there and all the other stuff just not the #. Now this wouldn't be a big deal in a lot of towns they would get it to the place but um this is a bigger city here and there is no way they are going to mess with it. Then he tries to lay it on me. Well that is the address you gave me. Oh no buster that is so not the case. I pulled out the paperwork that I had handed him and I saw the street number listed.
I know why he missed it. The number was on the line above the rest with the name of the group that houses difficult child 1. Because it is in letter form and he just copied the part that came on the next line. He didn't read the WHOLE thing. I have told him about that before. So now there is $50 floating around somewhere in mail h*ll.
He looked at me after pointing out what he had done and asked me where it was then. As if I am going to know that.
When will I learn that I have to do it all myself. He isn't the writing sort. I know better. But he was so proud of himself that he did it and look what happened. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then I had to finish being mad at him because there was a knock on the door.
Why can't he read the whole thing. I am sure he was told that in school and goodness knows I tell him and ALL of the other children that have shared our home that. Why don't they understand?
Like we can lose that kind of money. NO one can. GRRRRRRRRR.
And you know when his brother leaves he will either pretend like it didn't happen or somehow it will be my fault. ERRGGGGGG.
