Just for today, it was about acceptance and setting boundaries. The plans for Christmas were changed. My son took off and had a few beers with a friend. I told him I didn't mind what he did, but he had sprayed my oven and it needed to be cleaned if he wanted a Christmas dinner.
I didn't mind that he had a few beers with his friend as long as my oven got clean. What made me sad was the fact that by the time he did it, I had run out of energy, and I never got my pies baked. Hopefully, I will be able to do them tomorrow.
