[QUOTE="ksm, post: 690581, member: 12511"] the bear is still grumpy... She called, was at a friends house 3 blocks away and locked out of her car. Luckily, when she got the car, I made her get two spare keys, one for here, one for where she lives and the one she uses. After she got the key, she stopped by here to return it (yea!) then to give me her sad story... She was asking about a jar she had in her room, that had spare change. Seems she is out of gas. Has to work tomorrow. Her friend had an emergency so she had to drive quite a ways to pick her up. Friend will pitch in for gas, but not til payday. Yada yada yada. I called husband and he remembered putting it in a box in her garage. So I gave her a $10... Told her next time, not to get her nails done. She practically screamed she wasn't going to. But she had...a week ago...she didn't want to hear it. I told her $ came with a price tag...if I am loaning money, I expect the person to be polite and listen to advice. It comes attached to the money. I think she is frustrated, only a couple of weeks, and it's isn't all fun and games. Her friend changed jobs, worked three days, and then quit the new job. Difficult Child's hours have been cut back. She is still planning on looking for a second job, or a different one with more hours. Good thing my care package I fixed for her 18th birthday was still here at the house, Ramen, Mac and cheese, animal crackers, etc... KSM [/QUOTE]
