So Lost.....

i just dont know how to reach kayla. that is how i feel right now. i have been asking her for probably the past two weeks to clean her room, and she was being stubborn and not doing it. so i told her that she wasnt going to anywhere fun or do anything that she wanted to do fun if she didnt do it. she then kept telling me that she didnt care, because its not like i would take her anywhere anyway. so for at least the past week she has been begging me to go to the carnival that they are having at her school today, from 10am-3pm, so i told her starting last night that her room had to be clean for her to go. and she did hardly any of it, which i didnt blame her that much for though because i knew that we were in and out of the house all day yesterday and she also had to go to school too yesterday. so this morning at like 8:40am i think it was, i told her that she had until 11:00am to clean her room, so after 11:00am i came to check on her and see how she had done, and there barely looked like there was any difference at all in her room, and she was busy playing with frankie, so i asked her why she wasnt cleaning and why she was playing, and she said that it was because it was now after 11am and that she wasnt done, so she knew she wasnt going anywhere. so i decided to be nice and extend the time that she had, saying that she now had another 20 minutes to clean her room. i then catch her and frankie eating out tic tacs off the table, which were very clearly not theirs, and they were mike's. so i am sure that he is going to be mad about that, considering that he had just bought them for himself. so i punish them by making them go in the corner, and again tell her that she has 20 minutes to finish cleaning her room. i then see her sitting on the floor of her room playing, and remind her once again tha she only has a little bit of time to get her room clean so that i can still take her to the carnival, and i also have told her before by this point that i really wanted to take her, and want her to have fun, but that she has to have her room clean. she says that she understands, but still isnt cleaning. then to top all of this off, i am in the other room, and i hear really loud banging noises coming from frankie's room. i go and see what is going on, and hear kayla say to frankie look i finally killed it. turns out she was trying to kill a spider that i guess was on frankies wall, and to kill the spider she was throwing shoes and anything else that she could find at the wall. so looking at the wall, there are now black scuffs and big dents and holes in the wall. and there is also writing on his wall, that i know that he couldnt have done, because it is the word "not" actually written on the wall. and i know that frankie cant spell. and to make the things with the wall even worse, we are supposed to be moved into the new place by next saturday. (the townhouse that i wrote about previously that we had really liked and he put the bid on and got the contract on, he closed on the 10th and now it is being worked on having a lot of things done to it, some that need to be done and some that really dont (in my opinion...but that isnt the point right now) what i am trying to say is that with the way that she screwed up the wall even more that is more things that would need to be fixed and cleaned up, before we could even hope to get back our deposit. so basically more work. and with less then a week before we have to move, and with nothing getting done here, like cleaning up or packing, right now everyone is concentrating on the new place. sigh. so that is why i am really upset right now, i am not even really pissed off or mad, i am just really sad and depressed, because i just cant seem to find a way to reach her, and she keeps doing bad things. or not lisitening. i just dont know.
