Thank you very much for the email and snail mail address for the bus driver. I really appreciate it.

I am sorry things are rough with your dd. I agree with the others that perhaps she needs to learn the hard way. I know - easy for me to say. I have much younger children and generally have no idea what you are dealing with. Many hugs and pixies that things improve.

Good luck with your future interviews and the process to remain at WDW.
We are tentatively planning another trip so if you do stay on we may see you yet this year.

Hugs!

As long as you and your Ddad do things for her, she will never change. You said
she was this way with your older DD and your dad was paying for her and she
is still this way with you and your paying for her. I wouldn't move the BF in,
I would move them both out. It's a tough choice to make but growing up is
hard and if she is ever going to do it, now is the time.

I'm glad that you are still enjoying your time being a CP and I hope you do get
to stay on. If you do stay you need to look into getting your own place without
the older DD's.

Good luck!

Glad everything in the money room worked out. As for DD, its time she learns what happens in the real world. She needs to grow up and face the consequences of her actions. Hope everything works out for the best.

Glad things with the MR got better! I think you need a lot of

for dealing with your DD - and what everyone else has already said is right - it's time to stop trying to put out her fires and let her suffer the consequences of her actions.

DD needs a swift kick in the @.. and a dose of reality. If she doesn't pay that ticket, she is going to be arrested and get to go in front of a judge and ordered to pay the ticket plus court costs and maybe get to spend some time behind bars. Maybe that would get her attention because nothing else you have done seems to be sinking in. Hope you are able to survive thru this

Thanks for all the support. You all have NO IDEA how much it helps me. I was on the verge of tears again as I was walking into work, but I reminded myself of my Passporter Peeps and all of the guests who would be counting on me to do my best today and it was all better.

When I walked in the back room, one of my fellow CMs said, "I hate you, I really hate you" in a wink-wink kind of way. I asked her why, she reached in her pocket, and pulled out a card with a logo on one side and MY BIRTHDAY SONG on the other!!!

They had changed it from "birthday" to "celebration", but it still worked. I guess it was announced at the morning meeting and the VP sang it to the CMs, then had them sing it back from the cards. Today was a big walkabout day for the uppity ups and I heard they were singing it all over the place! I was SO excited to come home and tell DDs that OUR SONG was a big hit! Totally made my day, even though the CMs are annoyed at having to sing now...

Today was a short money room day, so I finished tweaking the spreadsheets and showed them to 1/3 of the managers who needs to see them. I'll show them to the other 2 tomorrow and hopefully get a full buy-off. Tomorrow is a weird day for me...830-230 in Games and 230-615 in Chester and Hester's. Long, early, and I'll be all over the place.

Still nothing from the PI front.

Lots of "swirl" going on in the company at the moment, so who knows where anyone will land.

This evening was a bit of calm after the storm w/ DD. Typical behavior, but we'll see where it goes. Hubby also has been really pressing about my coming "home" mid-May. He has no idea I've applied for an extension or the PIs. With him, it's best not to mention it until after the fact, so I've been hmmmming and hawing about it all. He started on one of his "trust no one" tangents today when I mentioned that I have to take the car in b/c the check engine light is on. We can't trust anyone, not even our "so-called President". I wound up that conversation fast, but now that I'm not hearing it all the time, it really is sounding more and more bizarre. He's coming next Tues-Fri for DD's b-day, so I'll really have to watch what I say...

I'm sure your DH is counting the days until your return. Do you think he'll really be ok continuing on with this current arrangement?

**Colexis Mom** · 03-26-2009, 08:24 AM

Glad you had a great day at work!! Pixies for the rest of it!!

wheatenwalker · 03-26-2009, 08:42 AM

Gee, Dawn, that is amazing and awesome about your song!!

PamelaK · 03-26-2009, 09:00 AM

Dawn, How

about your song! I hope to hear it soon.

coffeechef · 03-26-2009, 09:21 AM

I will be there in late May. I can't wait to hear the song when I am in Dinoland. Were your daughters happy to hear about the song ? I think it is so great that you are living your dream and enjoying it, even though the DD drama puts a damper on things. I look forward to hearing more about your Dino-days Hope all goes well with next week too.
