Sophia, she'll get over it. Eventually. Remember: walnut brains.
My friend R has had similar "reality isn't appearances" with her stepson who they finally got custody of when he was 8 or 9. It took a long time to get through her boss's head that certain appointments were non-negotiable and "no personal calls" isn't an option when your kid is spiralling and on the verge of being committed. They had to explicitly explain to teachers that he absolutely could not be allowed to get away with certain behaviors that do seem normal in other kids because they were part of something much larger and more destructive.
Also? When I got home from work, I scraped all the grout/caulk from around the base of the tub and redid it. I have to wait a couple of days to seal it with caulk, but I feel accomplished.
Also, as proof I have no musical taste, I kind of like "Poker Face". I include it in one of my workout mixes. Maybe there are some thing one should not confess publicly.
I quite like "Poker Face", and I admire Lady Gaga's ingenuity and determination. Girl knew what she wanted at a young age, and went after it.
My twin sister just got a kick ass job offer from another company and is finally about to get paid what she's worth. AND my mom went home from the hospital this morning.
YAY!
I didn't have to yank out the grout from the side by the toilet. The other stuff, I scraped up a million layers of caulk and it pulled up the grout too. Which I thought might happen.
Set up auto mortgage pay. Yay?
