All about SD

Yep. Another example if how sd is singlehandedly ruining my life... Last night we put the younger kids down and dh let oldest sd stay up until 11. At 11 he tells her lights out. Her room is next to ours. Dh and I pass right out - it was a long day in the hot sun.... 11:30 we are bolted awake by the sound of her door and then she puts her light on. Dh goes back to sleep but I go in there and ask her to please turn her light out. She looks at me like I have three heads... But says she will. She was drawing by the way.

Doesn't turn the light out. So I decide to find my eye mask so I can block the light out. Dh wakes up and asks me what I'm doing and I tell him. He says just tell her to turn her light out. I tell him that I did and as usual she doesn't listen. So he goes storming in there. You ready for this?! She starts crying and tells him she had a nightmare!! Lol. Hmm u never slept so how could u have had a friggin nightmare!?!??

Dh of course believes her because she is never wrong!! Oh noooo not her! I told him huh looks to me like she was drawing. I was so pissed it took me forever to fall asleep... This morning the other 4 kids and I are up but oldest is of course still sleeping. Lying and causing a rift in a marriage is exhausting y'all!

I kept opening her door and turning the light on lol! You don't have consideration at night for other people sleeping? Fine, I'll be the same way to you lady!!

Dh kept closing her door and tiptoeing around it. He is sooooo clueless

Wake her butt up and make her come out. Her attitude will stink but if you can tolerate it for the day it may make her think twice before pulling that again. DD4 has done stuff like that off and on and I just drag her out of bed early (usually earlier than she would normally get up) and make her stay awake all day. Once they get off schedule they are hard to get back on. If you consistently make her get up and not let her sleep in she will think twice about staying up late.

I'd probably dump a bowl of cold water on her. (and in my mind be wishing it was boiling water).

when ss19 lived with us he'd stay up late playing his music. When I'd get up I'd put my cd player on the vent and turn it up with my "old lady" music! HEHE!
