As you know, I told her last week that she was now responsible for her own cellphone (I cut hers off at 8:30am last Tuesday; she had a new one by 1pm that same day), her own credit card payment, her own Botox, her own EVERYTHING other than hers and the boys NEEDS (not "wants").
She keeps asking me "what my system is" for paying her BILL, and "where is it?" and I keep saying "It comes in the mail, every month, addressed to you," and "my system is, I open all the bills, I proritize them, and I pay them until the money runs out -- that's my system." I even left for her, ON HER DINNER PLATE one week ago, a "late notice" from her credit card company, and although it didn't contain the balance or mailing address, she could easily call them and find that information out.
Her most recent full statement is sitting in plain view on our dining room table.
She's in denial that this is now her responsibility, but I've absolutely washed my hands of it. It's HER credit rating that will be affected if she can't keep up with her payments, and the fact that she's more concerned with how to fit BOTOX into her monthly budget than she is in locating -- and paying -- her credit card bill just shows how far gone she is.
