[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 507389, member: 1514"] Well Tony says he IS pretty much illiterate when I made complaints so I guess I have to cut him some slack and that his comments about not reading are probably a way to save face with me. I really do find this confusing since he went to 12th grade but he did repeat 12th grade so maybe so. He didnt graduate though. Tony was the first person in his family to graduate HS. One thing we are going to have to do, and Tony is in support of me in this, is going to have to put up meal charts for the week and what ingredients go into those meals. We do buy some extra cheap stuff he can eat during the day for breakfast and lunch because we realize he does need to eat but he simply cannot graze through our ingredients for dinners. Last night we found out that he had eaten things we needed for our dinner that we had thought we had. I had bought 2 10 packs of flour tortilla shells and he had eaten one whole pack of one of them except leaving one tortilla shell in one pack. I was shocked! I turned on Tony and said...WTH? Tony tried to blame it on Billy when Buck spoke up and said he had been using them to put eggs in them and what ever. I was ticked. What was I supposed to do at the last minute? I also went absolutely off on him because I have been telling him since he got here about him chopping ice out of bottles of water every day with knives. I bought two very nice and expensive knives for Tony for xmas. I got them on sale for $40 but the regular price was $80. They are self sharpening and they are supposed to be kept in this sheath that has this sharpening stone inside the sheath. It is bright orange and is very easy to see setting on my counter. I tell him daily to keep the knives in those sheaths. He never does. He wants to use those knives to chop at the ice. I catch him and yell at him. Tonight Tony was attempting to slice my tomatoes and he noticed my smaller knife was bent and not as sharp. He commented on it and Buck tried to say he hadnt bent the tip. I went off. I told him he was going to replace the knives. Tony asked him why he didnt just use the knives that Tony told him he could use or do it the way I had told him to do it? Buck just shrugged.
