DYK And if you don't follow them, she will never respect you?
DYK We are just now getting to the point with Maegan where she will tell us the truth, even tho it might be 'ugly'?
DYK And when she tells the 'ugly' truth, she reminds me that I have always told her that I would rather know the truth than for her to tell me a 'pretty' lie?
DYK It has taken years to get her to this point?
DYK And yes, I don't always want to hear the truth, but I have to respect the fact that she is choosing the truth over lying?
dyk my key to organizing is to get rid of 3/4 of the crap that I don't use, don't need, don't really want, that I hung onto thinking maybe, someday... perhaps... I might.....
dyk she's not mad at me anymore...I went upstairs and told her that I know it upset her that I sent her friend home, but it upset me that she acted the way she did.
dyk and best the best news on cleaning out the cabinets in the bathroom
dyk I FOUND MY RIGHT CONTACT
dyk I KNEW I had one more in the box but the box itself was empty and I was ticked
dyk I ended up being able to get a trial one - not the exact Rx but I found the RIGHT one!!!! HOORAY
dyk so now I am wearing two new ones (one from the eye doc and the one I had in the box for the other eye) and I have a whole other set when these two run out
DYK And you were so right to take care of it yourself when the disrespect was directed toward you?
DYK I tell Maegan that she doesn't have to like me, but she has to love me?
DYK Like I don't have to be your buddy, because I'm your Mom?
DYK It is actually nice to be able to lessen punishment for Maegan now that I see that she is choosing to tell the truth over lying and getting herself in more trouble?
DYK I'm seeing little glimpses of maturity here and there in Maegan and I like what I'm seeing?
DYK But it's also hard to watch her growing up...she's no longer my baby, or even a kid, but a young lady?

dyk I swear I say that every.single.day.
dyk EVERYTHING happens for a reason...the good *and* the bad.

dyk she's not mad at me anymore...I went upstairs and told her that I know it upset her that I sent her friend home, but it upset me that she acted the way she did.

DYK Well, Lindsy, you seem very well-adjusted to me?
DYK So whatever you have done, it's working?
DYK Time to pass it on...pay it forward, you know what I mean!

DYK Yeah, I'm still stuck in the 'might use that someday' thing?
DYK What I need to do is find all the stuff that we haven't used since moving here and chunk it?
DYK That would be all the stuff we haven't used in over 5 years now?
