Tempered frustration

I never expected much out of life other than the basics.  This notion applies to people too.  So imagine my distress yesterday when noticing the disrepair of my daughters clothing.  Not that I should complain I guess, but why would someone let their little girl go to school with several holes in their pants?  Granted, it was just the knee, but still.  Our child is not some lowly waif or abandoned orphan.  She has two parents that take care of her.  I assumed that my ex would be able to keep her in decent clothes, but really, is that too much?  So today, I decided to rectify some of this situation and took my girl shopping.  That was a fun experience in which I learned something I didn't know either, she owned no pairs of jeans.  Well, four pairs later and several tops and other items, I do believe she is good to go for a while.  I just am not looking forward to tomorrow night when I drop her off and the impending questioning begins.

Things like that just give me a big case of the grrrrrrrs!
