Phone Conference with BM

stepmom31's picture

So we had a phone conference with BM regarding SD13 because:
1. I caught SD creating a fake FB profile.
2. She lied to DH and I about it, plus told us her mother didn't mind if she had one
3. She lied to her mother about it, told her she deleted it.
4. She's getting better grades in school now, but she's still 2 grade levels behind in Reading and doing intensive classes.
5. She has a terrible attitude.

Does this ever happen to anyone? I couldn't "get it up", figuratively speaking. :(

So last night, grandma took the babies and DH and I had a night to ourselves. It felt so great. We had a nice dinner while watching one of our favourite shows. DH got to bed before me and was reading a book. I went to take a shower before bed, and in my mind, was preparing to come out of the shower and have a nice sex session, since we have zero distractions for once. But while I was in there, I heard that DH got a message on his phone. It was late, past 11pm, so of course when I came out I asked what was the message about. DH sent the phone across the bed and told me to look.

So my SD just post this on FB as her status, from her cell phone:

"I hate when someone acts like my mom. I have a mom I dont need another one(:"

DH had to go help a friend move some stuff. I have 5 kids to deal with here and 3 aren't mine. SD is now a teenager, but she's acting like a 5 year old. IT has officially begun. I could very well tell her that I hate when someone acts like my baby. I have two babies, I don't need another one. Smile

My DH is a "psycho BM"?

DH had a little too much to drink this weekend, and I feel like "the psycho BM" in him came out.

I don't know how to deal with this. He never cared too much about what was going on at BM's house because that's pretty much out of his control. But now that BM's bf is living there, and SS is doing a bunch of guy stuff with him, DH is sad, depressed, stressed.

Udate to the "Monthly Dinner Together as a Family" Suggestion by BM

Sooo, I told DH that I won't do such a thing. He said he figured as much. He doesn't really care to do it either but the reasoning of "for the kids" whispers naggingly at him.

Anyway, he told BM on the phone that "these things take years" and she had the phone on speaker-phone and SS broke into tears. He's the one who wants this gathering, it seems.

Regular dinners with BM, her bf and stepkids as a WHOLE family - does anyone do this?

Does anyone do this kind of family dinner on a regular basis??? BM says that the kids say that they never get to do anything with their family together as a WHOLE. They want to go out to dinner once a month - to include BM and her boyfriend, SD, SS, DH and me and our kids.

My entire body is screaming "Nooooooo," but I am trying to stay calm and hope to calmly convey to my husband that I have no intention of participating in such an event regularly.

Good, Bad and Ugly - Events in my Steplife

I have not been here in a while, with a toddler and a baby it has become almost impossible. But I just need to let some stuff O.U.T. - both good and bad:

Here goes:
1. DH has FINALLY traded in his sporty, luxury car that had both his and Ex-wife's name on it. (His name was solely on the car she drove, and he needed her to co-sign in order to get a loan for his car, even though she never used it). Anyway, WE bought a mini-van that fits everyone.
