Mike was once again on duty with Ruth today. He gets everything handled so quickly and gets back home. I end up there for hours. I just didn't feel like spending the whole day over there so he went to rescue her from the pits of no cigarette and beer hell. Needless to say, this is getting a bit out of hand. She went through a carton of cigarettes in less than 6 days and is drinking more than a case of beer every 4 or 5 days. I am all for her being happy and comfortable but we are spending more on her beer and cigs than we spend on our groceries for the week . I told Mike today that we are done..done..done..done. It is real simple, either she is going to have to slow down or there is going to have to be some help from everyone else. I suggested that we label each pack of cigs with a day of the week and TRYYYYY to make her understand that she can only smoke that days pack(good luck)...I say if she is out of beer, she is out of beer BUT that is ALLLL she drinks other than 2 cups of coffee in the morning.She refuses to drink any water, tea, juice, etc. Mike tried to tell her today that she was going through her beer and cigs pretty fast...She said she has beer with all her friends and that someone stole her cigs...neither thing is true...what to do...what to do...
On the positive side...she is eating in the cafeteria more and she says she has lots of friends and is so busy all the time. I say..hooray!!!! She called at 7:30 this morning and said she was desperate to get out of there. It was actually all about the lack of cigs. When Mike got there, she had gotten a ride from one of her friends, who has a car ,to the convenience store .She bought a cheaper brand of cigs and says she will start smoking them now....good deal...
I will go over tomorrow as she forgot to get her Tide when she was at the store with
Mike....soooo much fun for Mikey....
