the plumber came today and my mom forgot to leave a check so she had me write one for the guy and said she'd pay me back.
the bill ended up being $274.15.
i don't have that much at the moment so i called her and told her.
when she got home she gave me $200 and then told me to go get my brother and sister dinner, which ended up being $20, so i only have $180 to put in the bank tomorrow.
what what what???
that's not $274.15! what about the other $94.15?!!!!
what part of "i don't have enough money" doesn't she understand?
she has never paid me back for anything i've spent on her kids since i've been home and i was okay with it because it was always small amounts. however those small amounts have added up. maybe if she ever paid me back i'd have her $94.15.
i'm going to have to say something about this, which is going to suck because i'm not dealing with a sane human being.
she's going to say, "i know you need more, blah blah blah." and she's going to yell at me and i'm going to get angry and it's going to suck.
so i'm going to try, really try, to be nice about this and not get mad when she starts freaking out.
if she doesn't give me the money then the check might bounce, which will be funny because it'll suck for her, but it will come up as MY check that bounced, which isn't cool.
if the check bounces will the knowledge that my mom will look like an idiot make me feel better? i hope so.
