Writer's Workshop: Mama's Losin' It

Here is the prompt I'm choosing to write about today. I discovered this little project through Jiggety Jig. She's in my Google reader. If you would like to join in please click on the Mama's Losin' It!! button above. Now on with my story!
3.) Write about how you felt when you discovered you were lied to.

My eldest daughter is famous for not telling the truth. She has almost always gotten caught and even as an adult she still does this and it makes me crazy! One of the times that she told a whopper and kept it a secret for months and I found out I lost it. I could have seriously physically hurt her. I felt my blood rushing through my body. I think I let several bad words fly which is something I don't normally do. My hormones were raging because I was about 8 months pregnant at the time. I had spent a lot of time finding baby sitters to watch my son while I took her to doctors and specialists. We went through major amounts of money on testing and medications. It was all related to her not telling the truth. It was like everyone knew but me. I trusted her and she betrayed my trust. I felt foolish and embarrassed. This fallout changed our relationship drastically. I've never been able to fully trust her since then. I hate not being able to believe her. I get so frustrated that at times I will eat a lot of junk food. Apparently that makes me feel better for a short time. She still lies and they continue to be pretty big ones too. I don't get as mad as I did that one time. I think it's because I'm not pregnant! LOL
