I had a fun time trick-or-treating with Ashley, she got a good candy haul. I was going to put a picture of the costume up, she was a playing card, but maybe later. While she was skipping around holding my hand it did some injury to a shoulder I dislocated earlier ( Read more... )

I hope your shoulder makes a quick recovery.

It does seem an odd thing to lie about. Did she think they should have invited you?

Thanks, shoulder is feeling back to normal for the most part. It seemed to take forever to recover.

Yeah .. that makes absolutely no sense to me! Does she think you’ll react badly if you tell her she’s going out somewhere? I am not sure of your relationship with your mom, but that is definitely not even worth lying about.

Happy to hear Ashley got a good haul. A lot of my friends with kids are so worried about trick or treating now, I think they all stuck close to home and didn’t venture out too far, lessening their hauls. It’s kind of sad to see the world turning into this.

My mother can be a weird person sometimes. I guess she thinks being sneaky is fun.

Why did Ashley want to be a playing card?

Haha! I have no idea, we saw the costume it looked fine, she said that one, then she wanted to do look at toys.

Random lying about random things seemed to have been a habit that runs in both sides of my family. My mother's family did it because they couldn't stand each other and my dad's family did it because their mother made them feel guilty about everything they did. So lying about where you were going or what you were doing just seemed sort of normal to me... I grew up under the impression that when someone told you an obvious bullshit lie you were supposed to nod and smile and say absolutely nothing. In retrospect, not the way I want to raise my daughter... if anything, I am overly honest with her.

My mothers family is a lot like that, but I with you, I tend to more flat out honesty, although sometimes people get mad at that, still I'd rather be upfront then make up some bull cocky story.
