I survived yesterday. But there was a lot of tongue biting and ignoring on my part. BM tried to talk to me a few times and I always gave her short, simple answers to any question but added little else. She mainly just sat in the backseat and listened to her MP3 player really loudly. She feed SS3 junk food and pestered him the whole time, she even woke him up from a nap because she kept touching him. She even said that SS3 didn't need lunch because he had enough snacks to get him through until dinner. BF bought him lunch any way.
I was going to post a topic with updates to my current "issues" and realized we are supposed to use a blog when not asking for advice. (When just it's just therapeutic to write it out). So here goes:
Booger Couch: SS continues to have to sit on sheet on couch and just this morning saw him pick nose and wipe it on sheet. I told DH and it just further reinforced my contention that he has to sit on thing for a LONG time, until he grows out of this disgusting habit!
I have four tough jobs, first two I can handle: being a mom to two teens and working full-time in an office. Second two are the hardest: stepmom to a teen and wife to a deployed soldier.
DH has once again ignored the fact that ss13 is in trouble at school again. SS13 ignored instructions and was rude to the teacher. Not surprised! He does it to me without a word from DH! Why would it stop there. I think the kid hates women! I have been desengaging so I was not involved in "the talk" after the incident. But ss came out of his room and got on the computer?? No consequences as usual! DH is an idiot!! He will never learn. So sad.......
I’m not sure if she’s in the early onset of puberty or what, but SD8 (she’ll be 9 in June) has been FULL of drama the past month or so. She throws full on dramatic hissy fits at the drop of a hat. Ex. – The other day SS6, talking about the Wii, said that he only liked to play war games.
SD: “WHAT?! YOU DON’T LIKE ME? I KNEW YOU HATED ME!”
SS: “Huh?”
SD: “You said that you ONLY liked to play war games! That means that you hate me! SM, did you hear what he SAID?”
DH is responsible to have ss on his health care plan so ss has been on bms plan since DH was without work he now has a job and we want him back on ours the payments are less but no she wants the money but never takes him to the doctor we always have to it just pisses me off
surly DH has a say on this
My step son has been diagnosed with ADD, he's been on meds for awhile but they never actually labeled it (and i suppose I was in denial as I didnt want to place labels on him myself) He lives with us and goes to his BM's EOW. I feel lost, what do I do? I am his primary caregiver as his father works 6 days a week and long days at that (I am ok with this as i wanted to stay home with my bio kids anyways) I just feel so drained already and now have been told that caring for an ADD child is a full time supervising job.
So I had an awful weekend, my Stepson was awful and it got to the point on Saturday he got grounded for the night and got all of his toys taken away. So I put it all aside and told myself Sunday would be a better day..........NO.
I am a very patient person in general. I have waited for this man to shape up. We have been together quite some time now. He has one son 9yo from his previous marriage. We are not married yet although we have it planned for this year.
The straw that broke camels back was the difference in opinion about having children. I want 2 kids of my own. There is no negotiation with me when it comes to that. I feel that I want to start on having a family.
My poor SS5 
As a background, my DH and I just took full custody of SS5 because his BM is in such a poor state physically and financially that we feel she is unable to take care of him right now. It has been almost a week and a half since he has spent any time with her.
