every day feels like yesterday. I forget what day it is. 10 days ago I was still feeling the same way. A month ago I was still feeling the same way. I WANT to give it effort. I want to try my hardest to feel like im doing the best i can and if it doesnt work out then atleast i can say i tried. but i feel like its 'forcing' myself. i gave myself till december and if things dont get better than its adios. but its like every day i wake up, i think about it all day, leaving. i wish i could go back in times sometimes and never would of said yes. havent really talked all week.

anyone have a similar experience?!?

CO states this year my SO was supposed to claim his daughter on his taxes. After submitting, his taxes were returned REJECTED. why? because BM claimed the child. He contacted her and she claims he is not caught up on his childsupport. not true. i know he is because I paid it. I wrote the check and it came out of MY account all before DECEMBER 31st.

so now we have to amend his return and claim the youngin.
ugh. & this was 2 days after we had just been speaking good about her and thought things were changing..GUESS NOT!

Anyone missing a Dog?? LOL

A couple weeks ago FSD and her friends "found" a puppy while walking from another friends house. This dog is a purebred and probably worth $500+. I don't know what to do. I feel in my heart that these crazy girls were walking and this puppy was in someone's yard and it might have followed them or something and they picked it up and ran. This dog belongs to someone who paid a lot of money for it. I feel really bad...haven't had any luck finding the owner. I think that no one know's the truth and I feel really bad about the whole thing.

Double-edged sword of being the 'responsible' household today...

On the one hand we try to teach rules and consequences, manners and self-reliance at our house. BM does not. Although she will not do anything for her kids if it creates the slightest hassle for her, she strangely babies the kids when they're in her possession, and does everything for them. In turn, it makes it difficult for us to enforce things at our house. The things we teach at our house go out the window by the next time they come over.

Playing us for fools

Okay this is what I think is happening with my stepdaughter.
All this is symptomatic of you her dad marrying someone and SD failed this time to break this relationship. (Something she has done in the Past).
SD deep down is furious about this. As a rule most women have fled her dad's life as he allowed this from what I can gather so the SD always had a upper hand.
In SD's fury she has taken it upon herself to move away to hurt her dad. This is true because she now knows this does hurt him as he has expressed this.

Getting My Life Back

I just got the courage to tackle the game room after ss17 took it over last fall. Since he moved out, I've been unwilling to go in there. I put my weight set back together and got my treadmill set back up (he took everything apart because he didn't "like" the bedroom we gave him.

I'm finally able to get excited about having my home back. I just couldn't face going up there and reclaim the space until now. Probably PTSD, haha, like a lot of steppers.
