Work went well BUT it seemed that getting things done was going no where. BUT we did get things done.
There's a lot that needs done but a lot of mess ups that have to be fixed. Even I messed up today. Seems I need to focus more & stay on task instead of bounce from thing to thing. Friday I will fix that problem. Write it all down & then check it off as I finish it. I did get items done but I bounced from thing to thing. But I did complete what I started! Well ... for the most part.
Mary & I talked about a few things. At least I wasn't the only person telling her things. I was honest w/ her because I am not perfect. I don't claim to be telling every one that we "have to work as store" & that "no one is doing recovery" ... because in the end there are those who are. Yes, I make mistakes but at least I correct them. I also don't blame my mistakes on others. I grew up knowing I was human, I guess others didn't.

My kids are a new & old topic. Seems they think chores are above them. I would like to know where they are going to get the money to hire a maid! Because to be completely honest I am not the maid. I expect them to help clean their messes as much as they create them create them. You mess up your bedroom, then you clean it. You mess up your play room, then you clean it. You make a mess -- your clean it. You eat off the dishes, & you help wash. Same with all chores, when it's your turn then do it.
They go through the phases where they won't work. It so annoy's me. Only problem is that truely do not understand how much. I cannot stand when you are lazy for weeks on end. A day ... I can understand. Only when it's once in a while. This is driving me nuts. If they help, then it would be so hard. Yet now it so hard to make them understand. We have tried all types of disappline. So back to taking things aways ... tv, phones video games, events they want to go & even favorite clothes. Yes, we decide what they where -- the HORROR in that! Eventually they have to learn, to do accept their responsiblities or lose what they like. You can earn it back if you want it ... orther wise it's history.

I found out about talking & who is blabbing. Never thought it would come down to losing my trust & friendship with Party A. But I am seeing that she it is her telling Ann what I have said. I was so upset & disappointed. I have trusted her with so much in my life & with a lot that I have said. Seems that she has no problem telling Ann all of it. How insulting & how distrusting of a friend. Now I haven't come out & asked her directly ... there is a major situation & because of that I have been respectful towards her. But it is really upsetting me because after out last converation, she did repeat some things that that told me she was opening her mouth. I guess I should have known. Here I wanted to know who blabbed & it would seems like I found out. Looks like I really do find all the messed up friends after all.
