The REO Lounge - Part III

[vsummer1]

Hi Lisa,

I just thought of this. My sisters daughter has a friend who ordered an ecig online. She's 14. This doesnt help our cause at all. Sis and brother-in-law aren't pleased. It just puts ecigs in bad light whether that's rational or not. They think ecigs are stupid but better than smoking. Its hard to be perfect. I have to hear that it would be so much better if you didn't need those things.

Well, your sister's daughter's friend is a liar, she had to lie about her age to get it online right? That is on her. Where did she get the credit for it? That is on whoever allows her to shop online providing her with a means and no supervision. Perhaps your sister shouldn't permit her daughter to be associated with a lying, unsupervised child? No way my kids had the ability to do such a thing at 14. Their internet access was extremely limited at that age, and no facebook either back then, and no cell phone at that age either. But then their father is a paranoid cop and wouldn't let me get them even a simple phone so my kids are kind of the other extreme of parental supervision!

I've done something similar. I am my mother's representative payee...meaning I am legally responsible for her money and I have to submit her account details yearly for review by the SSA to make sure I'm not using her funds for anything but her needs and wants. Her account is at the same CU as mine and the checkbooks and checks are identical save for account number and one name. I ended up mistaking the two books and paid for a bunch of stuff for my daughter using my mom's account. Took me a few days to realize what happened...and ended up transferring funds from my account to hers to cover the debt. That could have cost me in much bigger ways had I not fixed it. Glad you got it figured out though...you won't make that mistake twice.

Glad I'm not alone. Thanks! Funny thing is, aside from the color of the checks and the books, they look nothing alike. My bank account even has a little kokopelli icon on it, but I somehow didn't notice it was missing!

Ugh That sucks...on so many levels.

And it may be harsh of me, but really, I agree. My first question would have been "Where were her parents during all of this?" A) my 14 year old daughter has very limited access to the internet and that access is supervised, B) she has no bank card and no access to mine, and C) she has a healthy fear of her maker. And don't even get me started on responsible parenting. I'm no saint, but jeez.

Val...my husband isn't a paranoid cop, but he's paranoid ex military...so very similar in a lot of aspects. Both have seen the very worst in people. We have even limited her access to kids who have told her to keep things from us on the general principal that if they need her to hide something from us, then they are not worthy or safe friends.

I agree with you entirely!

A perfect example of that is what Rick thought about Carol on WD. Carol wanted Carl to lie to Rick and hide something from the parents in the group. Rick didn't like that ONE bit and told Carol he wouldn't trust her with his kids because of it.

I am still dying to know why Kay thinks Rick isn't playing well with others, when it was Carol not playing well?

Not sure...I don't watch WD....so I have no clue.

Val you got WD on the brain! It's nothing but bombshells getting dropped every episode.

Those same words crossed my mind last night.

Good Afternoon, Reoville!

Sent from somewhere on Planet Earth.

You mean someone obeys the game laws in Utah!??

Please go tell that to the guys chasing the pheasants behind my kennel building.

Good Day Fine REO Folk. Don't watch WD other than having to interact with RW humans, who are mostly walking brain dead.

Been searching for apartments for DH and a couple of dogs, dog friendly. Has to be within 10 miles of here, where I and most dogs will be staying on the almost acre and whatever shack I can throw up and going back and forth. Found one 8 miles away, with few restrictions other than "no aggressive breeds", limit two, and has a "dog park". Reviews on place look great. And it has washer/dryer hook ups, wireless internet, covered parking with optional garage rental, which is much cheaper than our storage lockers. Hoping to snag anything and get on waiting list for one that has more room and larger patio. We'll just move mostly DH's man cave recliner and computer with pull out monitor, exercise machine, bedroom furniture from guest room (Kay, I can move all that myself), some kitchen stuff, and two TVs. My Lufama Zero gravity lounger is all I need for living room and a couple little patio tables I'm using now. At this point I'll take up stairs to get in. DH got a little ticked when I put on application that he needs no stairs. But I really hate him going up and down the stairs several times a day with two dogs on lead. Gotta get Moe's assistance dog training completed and certified so we can have three there without breaking rules.

Gotta get electricity run to "front 40". I have 350 gallon water storage capacity in tanks so can "borrow" water from neighbor, who I've already talked to about. Need electricity mostly for hot tub. Solar panels will do for everything else and I already have them. Just need to get a few new deep cycle batteries.

We'll, Kay was very adamant that Rick was not playing well with others and I can't figure out why? He is being very restrained if you ask me.

And it was only on last night

Howdy Reo-fam! RW has me all tied up. I hope everyone is well. I tried to catch up buy my word, there was like 27 pages. Did I miss anything earth shattering? Darrel, your son is a trip. I love that little guy! Big huggs for Karen and all our gals.

Yeah I honestly was afraid he was going to kill her since I'm sure he'd do it way nicer then Tyreese would have.

No doubt about that! At least Rick gave her a chance and packed her stuff for her.

I am worried about Glenn. He lives a bit longer in the comics, and at least dies for the group. It's kind of a cheat for him to die of the flu if you ask me
