Just want to get it off my chest! I posted part of my story the other night when I found the site, but there was so much more to the story. I definitely don't expect any of you to read all of this, I tend to be long winded! I have just had so much to deal with over the last 5 years and no one who really understands. I am the only one of my friends who has a step-child. Hard to believe huh? Even though I would never wish what I and DH have been put through on anyone, it is nice to know that I am not alone on my feelings.
Is it selfish that I used my in that title entry?
I figured starting a new family, I would be able to infiltrate my ideas of how holidays would play out. Jokes on me. He doesn't much adopt anything new from me. "well I grew up doing this, and I want to continue that." I fucking hate joinging a ready made family! Why hadn't things like this occured to me?
I have a 34 year old step daughter, needless to say its been a struggle over 28 years with her.
I recently was suppose to have Lia Sophia party, my step daugher asked me to do this after I just had surgery and ended up with a blood clot in my lung. I did cancel, but she was so mad.
It's sometimes the smallest things that drive me crazy! But I need to vent some (the ones from the past few hours) and hopefully, some of you can post what drives you crazy and make me feel normal/ get it off your chest too!
I hate for these little things to get my blood boiling and throw me off track. I was having such a good day today.
Anyway, DH just let me know that he will be making himself available to pick up the kids at ex-in-laws (since BM insisted - she has to leave earlier than planned for her weekend get away).
I'm so mad that MY husband bends over to accomodate her.
Yes, doesn't paint a very pretty picture, does it?
My husband bending. Ex-wife blanktey blanking.
I. Am. Trying. Very. Hard. To. Understand.
Ok so mil lost her job and my DH wants them (his mom and dad) to move in with us....I said NO! I feel I have the last say because it is my house...I bought it before we got married/ever knew each other existed! We only have three rooms: ours, the babies room (they share 1 years old and 3 weeks old!!!) and the other room is his two kids for when they come over every other weekend thats it!
So admist all the happy times w/all the new babies.....who else here is freaked about the weekend?
I'm dreading it already-not sure what will happen-if we will see eachother Easter, whathaveyou.
BUT regardless....bf is already in a mood since last night-he always gets this way on his wknd w/SD- I guess I have Friday for a day to myself-off work but kids are in school.
Seriously. I have spent 10 years being dictated to what I will do and when- I am like a puppet on a string. I thought that when SD19 said she was done coming over that life would be quiet since 90% of the drama in our house was created by her manipulation and now SS14 is piCking it up and running with it.
I'm going back to NOT CARING!!!!!!
My SS (10) lies all the time. On a normal day 99% of what he says is a lie. Any advice on how to help him kick this habit? DH won't do anything and I hate being lied to.
And some tthings have gotten better and some things have gotten worse and some things haven't changed.
Working from home had some of the coolest bene's. I could go workout twice a day in prep for triathlons. I could start dinner. I could keep up on house stuff so there could be relaxation at some point. I could spend more time with the FSkids? Yeah - right.
FSD13 has gotten better...oddly enough and I don't know why. I'm just going to take that one on faith.
