Super Mom to the Rescue
I got a phone call from Jessica tonight. It seems, when she was here this last weekend, she left her keys. This has necessitated her going to the apartment office to borrow a key to get in for the past two days. She has begged me to bring them over to her, and so I will - with the statement that she OWES me (very tongue-in-cheek). She's offering foot massages when next she comes to visit.
I realize that I should stand my ground and either A) make her keep going to the office for a key this week; or B) make her father drive her over here to get them. However, due to a change in visitation, I'm not going to see her for two weekends in a row, so she'd be without keys for three weeks, which I think is a little extreme of a lesson. I've gotten her father to agree to drive one way on visitation weekends to pick her up, so I don't feel inclined to push the issue - not to mention the fact that she'd get hell from him the whole way here and the whole way back.
So, this time, I am Super Mom to the Rescue and driving the keys across town. Next time, though, I think I'm going to make her suffer - or buy her a bigger purse. ;)

(I *did* warn her that this is her one "get out of jail free" pass & the next time it happens she's gonna have to hike her little butt to the office every day for the two weeks she's without keys.)
And hey, I found gas for $0.20/gallon cheaper on the west side than it is around here. :)
