Elizabeth was already at our house when I got home. Snow day. So we went to Clackamas Town Center and perused for a couple of hours. We bought some body butter for our legs and feet. Then we looked for shirts. She found one and I found four. Hmmm. Anyway we enjoyed it. We did not really see any strange and interesting people. Clackamas must be "normal".
Then we went up to Thai Lotus and had dinner and a visit with Brendan. He is again moving his make-up store to a bigger location. We were fascinated with the cops who were searching beside the building for something. They kept traipsing back and forth with their flashlights.
Just as we were starting back Elizabeth got a call on her cell phone. Her mom was yelling at her for not responding to a text she had sent her. Well we never heard her phone go off. But I could hear her mom on the phone. Really? And here I was super impressed that Elizabeth had not used her phone while with me. I thought she was supporting me in my quest to not use one, especially when you are with other people who you should be paying attention to. She was being considerate. And the text that she missed when it came really wasn't important in its timing. I usually take her home about 8 p.m. so her mom running an errand at 6 wasn't worth yelling for a missed text at the time.
I am just so sick of the childish games that our children feel they have to play I thought Mike was our worst nightmare. But, I am finding out that we have another one that is just so far out there, that it is pathetic. I really, hope, that you can get your shit together.
