Just passing by...

For those of you who know me, I wanted to just say hi and let you all know that I'm fine. I have a new job, started 6 months ago and of course there is no time to fuck around on the Internet. Things have been going fairly well. GB is 18 months old, she is the prettiest, smartest and most loving creature I've ever known. We see her at least 4 times a week because BM20 has come to depend on me and my family to help her with the baby. She is still a total loon, has more mood swings than I care to count but I think she's figured out which side her bread is buttered on.

Just stopping by to say hi....

Ladies, I know I haven't been around for a while but I just logged on and saw a few private messages asking how I was. Thanks for checking on me, I truly appreciate it. I started a new job in September and needless to say playing around on ST or FB, or any playing around at all, is no longer possible. I finally had the nerve to quit that job that was making me absolutely miserable and found a job 8 miles away from home. Took a chunky pay cut but with what I'm saving in gas, tolls and time (and NY taxes) it basically evened out almost to the penny. GB is growing beautifully.

SD14 hinting at moving in again….

SD14 has been with us since Friday. Whatever, I leave for work and only have to see her for a few hours a day anyway, so I deal. Monday, I come home to find that once again, she ate all of GB's Gerber snacks. She was also sitting outside on the deck wrapped in GB's cable knit throw that I keep on her chair in her nursery. My blood was boiling but I simply made a snippy comment at her and told her that we have Gerber green peas in the pantry in case she'd like to eat those too. She just looked at me with the stupid grin that I will assume meant "Sorry??"

Just saw something that made my blood boil...

I won't say where I saw it, but….Basically, it was a BM who was shocked at the CS she was awarded. $595.00 a WEEK for 2 kids. She stated that she feels really bad because she knows her ex will struggle.
The ex makes 2k a week GROSS as a truck driver.
Now, here is where I got annoyed. Some women were telling her that if they ordered that amount it's cause he could afford it. I tend to disagree with that statement.
While making 104k a year, is nothing to sneeze at, it is not, by ANY means, a phenomenal amount of money. Especially, if you live on the East coast.

SD14's texts to DH yesterday...

SD: Daaaaaddddddddddd
DH: What?
SD: I need to ask you a REALLY big favor.
DH: LOL, you and your favors. What is it?
SD: Are you listening? It's a REALLY big favor Dad. Are you ready?
DH: Not really, but I can't wait to hear.
SD: Well, can you please put internet on my iPad? I have a project due Friday and it's 25% of my grade and I have to do a LOT of research and I need Wifi.
DH: Wait a minute, I pay child support for you and a LOT of it. Your mom can't pay $35.00 a month for Wifi?

So now she's a Gerber baby….

SD14 now eats the Gerber snacks that I buy for GB. It seems this is her new addiction. So much so, that Saturday night, she actually sent DH a text with a picture of GB's Blueberry Puffs asking him "Daddy PLEEEEEEAAAAAASSSEEEEE buy me these!!!! I don't want to eat all of hers!"
I know it shouldn't bother me, it is petty and I feel really petty even talking about it, but it really did annoy the shit out of me.
So much so that yesterday as I was cleaning up the kitchen, I came across the empty Puffs jar and I showed it to DH and said "So she's an infant now?"

Uugghhh…I just need to get this out real quick...

I have no relationship with my MIL, SILs or any of DH's family.
It has been 4 years since the last contact. However, because I really try to be a good person, I told DH that he should try and forge a relationship with his mom because well, the hag is OLD and when she croaks I don't want any blowback on my marriage.
You know how that goes, somebody dies and all of a sudden it's YOUR fault that they weren't speaking in the first place.
So I told him that he should make peace with her but that I will stay as I am. No contact, no relationship.

The weekend...

It was a Skid weekend. Usually, it's just SD14 since SS is 22.
However, THIS weekend, SS22 also came over. He came over Thursday and stayed till yesterday.
SS22 and I have mended fences. With that said, I didn't particularly like that he stayed at our home on Friday while DH and I went to work and BS17 went to school.
Something about that made me uneasy.

ThrowBack Thursday and pics of my DH….

I will never understand why BM thinks it's NORMAL to post pics of MY DH on her FB and Instagram wall.
So she posts a pic of my DH (looking MIGHTY gorgeous I might add) on her wall. In the picture he is with SS while SS carries SD when she was a few weeks old.
The one on FB says "They do have the best dad, can't complain."
The one Instagram says the same thing but with the emoji of a happy couple and 2 hearts after it.

Update to previous blog….

I showed my DH the text conversation with SD14. When he saw her 60/40 reply, he gave me the phone back and said…
"Oh really? Fuck that, I'm not wasting my time or my money if she's going to start second guessing what she wants. You know that was her mother that filled her head up with shit."

I simply said "Yes babe, you know that if she's not sure and she goes to a judge with an "I don't know" answer, you're gonna lose."
