Just when I thought she had learned her lesson
A couple of days ago I got a craving (no it's not that) for chocolate. Sandy had brought home a brown bag filled with Tootsie Rolls and Hershey's Miniatures a few weeks ago. I went looking for it in the refrigerator and it was not there. I asked Mike what he had done with them since he had cleaned the refrigerator. He said he had not touched them. So then our suspicions fell on Sandy. I looked through her room the next day and did not find any candy wrappers, so we concluded that Mike must had thrown them out by accident. Today I was pulling out some clothes for Sandy to take with her on her youth group trip this weekend. And what do I find? You guessed it, the bag of Tootsie Rolls all eaten. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! So I did some further pawing and every one of her drawers in her room had paper and junk in them. I don't even want to go into what the bottom of her closet looked like. AND we have reason to suspect that Sandy had gotten up in the middle of the night and was watching TV. Now we have the channels we don't want her to watch blocked, but it was just the very idea that she had gotten up when she was not suppose to that makes us angry. She even admitted a few days ago that she had woken up at 2 a.m. and was quite proud of the fact that she went back to sleep. Looking back on this now, I should have realized that something was wrong because when I ask her what time she gets up and eats breakfast on Saturday mornings when Mike & I sleep in she can't tell us for sure. The fact that she was so sure of what time she woke up should have been a red flag. At this point she has no clue that we know about her candy thievery, but she will have repercussions when she gets back on Sunday. I don't know what yet, but I can guarantee she won't be a happy camper.
