As it has been over the past week, today was a day of craziness. While still being graced with the presence of my 17 year old visitor, we were getting ready to go to a party. I worked out in the morning and my energy levels were high. My younger child earned back his privileges and everything was going smoothly. Time came to get dressed so we could leave. I told the 17 year old to get ready and he had the nerve to adamantly refuse. I told myself, "Self, if there way any time that it would be ok to slap a child across their face, now would be the time!" I laughed that little thought off (sometimes we need to use humor to survive) and strategized. It did not work. Basically, my 17 year old and I remained home while everyone else went to enjoy the party. The 17 year lost his phone privileges and tried aimlessly to get it back. That didn't work for him. You can only imagine how upset I really was.
Good thing about it, is that I did not have to face the choices of the food that were served at the party. I stayed home and could eat as healthy as I wanted. :)
