Youngest D(16) is thoroughly disgusted with her dad. Today we went shopping. We were sitting outside a dressing room waiting on my neice. D proceeds to tell me about a conversation she had with her dad. Until today she really hadn't said much about my H and OW. She said she told him I think you did Mom pretty shi**y. I know about you and the secretary. He said who told you that? She said I have my sources and no, it wasn't Mom. He said who? She said I won't betray my source, just remember we live in a smal community and stuff gets around. She said obviously it's true or you wouldn't be so worried who told me. She said if you end up with her, Dad, I'll never talk to you again.
Today while were shopping D got H Father's Day present. She said she wanted to take it to him tonight. I said well, you will have plenty of time to take it to him after church. She said well, I'm really bored and I just want to take it now. She called him and said hey, I'm coming to your office (remember he is supposedly staying there all the time) to bring you your gift. He said well, you can give it to me tomorrow. She said where are you? He said I'm just riding around and won't be home til late. (yeah, right, who just rides around with the gas prices?) She got off the phone and I just looked at her and didn't say anything. She said he is so lying. She said I'm going to take it over there now and just leave there. She said I don't want to go over there by myself, I'm scared, please go with me. I said sure,Hon, if that's what you want to do. I said do you know the code to the fence and she said no so I gave it to her. Well, guess what it didn't work. I said try it again. She did and it still didn't work. She said I'm calling him. She said I'm at your office, what is the code? He said who are you with? She said I'm by myself. I did not tell her to tell him that. She said look, I don't know what you are doing, I just want the code. He finally gave it to her, and yes he had changed it.She drove in the fence and just threw it by the front door she was so mad. Now, he is lying to his D. He apparently has no conscience!
