Hi LB--

I am pretty sure that if I were in your place I wouldn't get it either. I'd probably be babbling in a padded cell, in fact.

From out here, two things strike me. To her, something that is going to happen 60 days from now is no more real than the Easter Bunny. And where is she getting the money to have hair extensions done?

Bless your heart--you've got one entitled princess living in your house.

I too thought about my son and if he has LITTLE money it would be put towards rent but no we buy a fish tank. Whatever.....I just let go and let God handle it now. He will just have to live in that fish tank someday.

Happy Birthday to your daughter...I pray she will get it someday.

((( hugs )))

You don't have to do anything just find serenity & hang in there!
