Shopping with Sheman

Sheman is not out of the picture.  I know I said I got weird, and I did but she told me that I can get as weird as I want cause she’s not going anywhere.  I believe I truly put to the test because I was down right nasty towards here these past few days.  Long story short we had an argument about her priorities which put Kat at the top instead of securing herself a job, vehicle and taking better care of her health.

So today she came over and I gave her a few gifts.  For her health I gave her a nice cook book for diabetics that was extremely simple and easy to follow.  The other gift was the movie Burlesque.  We both had wanted to see the movie when it was in the theater but never went.  So I bought it as a present for her.  She was quite thrilled when I gave them to her. 

She stayed for dinner and watched the movie with me, which we both enjoyed.  I have to watch it again to really get a feel for it though. Whether or not I really liked it.  It was the same with the movie Nine starring Daniel Day-Lewis and his relationships with nine women.  Fergie, Kate Hudson and Penelope Cruz were all super hot in it.  And the second viewing brought it home how much I did like it.

After the movie we went grocery shopping, I had promised to help her shop for sustainable healthy foods that was not junk.  I have to say I was beyond shocked at how narrow-minded in the food department she is.  It’s like I am dealing with a baby who has only ate strained carrots and thinks that’s the bomb.  Yelch!!

Not only did I guide her thru the fruits, veggies, cheeses, meats and seafood, but I educated her on how to store it properly.  How to prepare something or being able to change-up a recipe to include on hand items; these things did not ever occur to her.  She always relied on the gal she was with the be the one shopping for her.  But I am so not like that.  She has to be independent.  Able to take care of herself and be successful at it.  I am not sure why I pushing her to be like this.  Well.  I think I do.  See we have these conversations and it doesn’t matter what it’s about. We could be talking about a movie, a parade, an event, a theme park  or even a restaurant and she would always say “oh yeah I was going to go there or wanted to go there but “insert female name here” wouldn’t go/didn’t like it/we broke up/blah blah. She hasn’t lived her life due to being so stuck on the woman in her life.  So, I am forcing her to be a big  girl now.  Oh sure I am holding her hand but I told her that if she does not progress, I cut the cord and she can eat shit then.

I like her.. but not as a dependent baby.  I’m hoping she will stand up on her own two feet soon and stop waiting for handouts. Kat on the other hand could careless.  She’s got Sheman right were she wants her and finds none of the things I find important of any concern.  I believe she is waiting her out so that she can move her back in and push me out.
