[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 647048, member: 3419"] Thank you. Sigh. He says he's going to make up a story about smoking in the car just to shut up husband. NOT. I said, "Wouldn't it be possible for one of your friends to smoke with-o you knowing it? If they had the window open an inch, like it was two days ago? Flick-flick. (I showed him how people flick cigarettes out the window.) He said, "Well, actually, I did tell them they could have something-or-other/liquid cigs, because they're guaranteed not to leave a smell." Arrrgh! So, I got husband and difficult child to sit together at the kitchen table and have a very short conversation. difficult child said he was on the spot and wanted to think about what he wanted to say. I said, "Just say 'I'm sorry.' Doesn't have to be for vapes, ecigs or real cigs. Just 'I'm sorry that the car smells.'" husband said, "Just let it go. We'll talk another time." Arrrgh. Well, at least I got halfway there. (difficult child said he paid $20 for a vape and he broke it. Not surprising. He breaks everything. Always has.) And I also made difficult child promise that when he gets another job (he hasn't been on the McD schedule for a month so it's safe to assume he was fired, although the mgr is at good at dodging responsibility as he is, since she hasn't called to tell him he's fired, and to ask for his uniform. She's a difficult child too. Tattoos from The Bloods. Sheesh) that he will pay for detailing the inside of the car (wet-washing and drying the upholstery). And he's got to call the ins. company Fri. He tried to tell husband that he left the ins card at home and "Mom didn't text me until 4 or 5 and they closed at 5 and it was too late." Don't you love it when it's all Mom's fault? husband said, "You've had two days to do that. DO IT TOMORROW." doG, this is exhausting. [/QUOTE]
