The Ugly Rocks

Decided to go grocery shopping this afternoon.  Everything was fine till we got in the parking lot.  As soon as I put Connor in the little kid seat Audrie threw a fit.  She thinks that is her spot.  And it can be if we are really quick.  Otherwise Connor gets bored in the big section and starts dismantling by throwing things out.  We get inside and the first display is frosted animal cookies.  I have forbidden them for awhile so I said no.  Here we go again.  I turned the cart around and we went back to the car and home.  She ranted the whole way.  She ranted when we got inside for about another ten minutes and then finally settled down.  Whew.
After awhile I thought maybe I should check and see if the food stamps show up yet.  I haven't checked for several days.  And they would show on the card before I get the notice in the mail.  Well yeehaw there they were.  I don't know what the amount per month will be because part of what I got would be for February and part for all of March.  I have $420.
Made me so happy that Audrie threw a fit and we did not shop.  I would have used the  TANF money, not knowing that the food stamps were there. Never thought I would be happy about a temper tantrum.
And tomorrow I will go shopping right after work when I am kidless.  Win win for me.
