So what?!?!?!

I have been holding onto this one because I was trying to be sensitive to the person, but now, I'm just through being Mrs. Nice-Person!!!

This was written last summer.

So you are going through a divorce and have a sucky job that doesn't pay peanuts and doesn't give you the hours you need to support your family. So you have to rely on Mom and Dad to support you and your son because the asshole you married can't be bothered to give you a dime to help out. So you are going to court tomorrow and WANT a new outfit to wear, but don't have the $$$, so you are going to put it on Mom's credit card.

I'm sorry that you don't want to hear my advice. I'm sorry that you think that I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm sorry that you are going through all of this crap. But where do you get off spending $100+ on an outfit you will probably only wear once when Mom and Dad had to borrow $$$ from me to pay their light bill? It's not right.

It's not that you don't deserve a new outfit, you do. But when it costs almost as much as MY light bill...that's too much. If it was something that you would be wearing frequently, or had as separates, that would be an entirely different story. You could have waited until I was there to help you, but you got impatient and didn't want to wait. I'm sorry.

I know that this post will piss you off even more than you already are, but hey...it had to be said. I can no longer sit idly by and watch you break Mom's bank account. Go get a better job and stop bleeding them dry! You have MARKETABLE SKILLS! Use them! Even if it means going through some agency. Do it! Stop complaining and waiting for someone to do something for you, go out and do it for yourself!
