M#2 wanted to go to downtown Naperville with some of her friends. So, I drove them over to town and dropped them off in front of the Apple Store. I went home and one of M#2's friend's Mom was going to bring her back home. I have been having a problem lately with parents always expecting me to drop off and pick up for every play date, every sleepover and any other activity M#2 makes plans for. I have finally put my foot down and told M#2 that from now on, I am only driving one way and one of the parents would have to drive the other way or her plans are a no-go. I feel bad, but I feel sometimes that I am being taken advantage of and it bothers me. What do you guys think? Am I doing the right thing?
Enough of that. When M#2 came home she was all banged up. She fell while downtown and scraped her arm, leg and one of her toes. I felt so bad for her. I gave her a huge hug(probably a little harder than normal because of the death of Caylee Anthony, but I won't get into that). Lily tried to lick Marisa's war wounds, which was sweet, but we tried to get her to stop.
I continued my job search today and I am going to apply to some thrift stores in the area for part-time work. Just a little something would be helpful to us. Just as long as I don't spend what I earn in the store!
