I am new here and it is comforting to know that so many others have the same problems that I do! My husband and I have been married for 4 years but have been together for 7 years. I have one son who is 13 and he has 2 girls and 1 boy, ages 15,18, and 21. My SS who is 18 now used to live with us and so did my SD who is 21 and has a 3 year old. The problems that they caused are the same as most of you on here have experienced. The rudeness, lies to other family members about me and my son, the issues with a crazy BM are all things that I went through.
Again, some time has passed since the last time I logged in (before Christmas, I think). There have been some changes in my life...some good, some bad, some that were just expected...
I'll save the good for last because it's that good.
:O So today is a snow day. I work from home, no issue for me. Hubby decided to work from home (too much of a good thing), and of course DD is home. I had plans to bake cookies and brownies and maybe even my hubby's favorite cupcakes (Devil's food w/peanut butting filling and chocolate ganache frosting.) I still may do that, because baking is theraputic for me. And I am in a tired bitchy cranky kind of mood. Skids are coming over in an hour...I'm in no mood for it today. I know that sounds horrible, but the truth is the truth.
Here's my story - I apologize in advance if it's too much reading! I have three children (22, 19 and 15 - with the two younger ones still at home - 19 year old is attending local college). My husband (we were married in July 2010) has two boys (21 and 17) - 21 year old is at college - 17 year old lives with his mother and visits us every Wednesday and every other weekend. When I initially moved in with my husband-to-be, his boys would visit on the appointed day/days and absolutely wreak havoc on the house.
Well it's been a week and two days since my brother in law past away. We still have not had a funeral for him nor is he burried. My husband is still haning on to the hope that there is some money out there to burry him with. He refuses to cremate him and have a simple funeral just for us. He set up an account for donations to help with the expenses so far no one has sent money. I keep telling him his brother would not want us to go through this but he insists on waiting. I asked him how long he was willing to wait. H said until I can give him what he would have wanted.
Over the weekend, Saturday to be exact, BF went to pick up skids at thier respective schools like he is supposed to every Friday. Only 3 of 4 were at one school and the other oldest skid was not even at her school.
Then he gets text asking him when and where he is picking the other 2 up. Because BM had gotten them/...... Well he cant answer because she has him blocked from texting and calling her, and the 3 oldest who have phones.
So, he just leaves it alone and documents the events in his trusty notebook.
This is about my own kid not a skid. Daughter 19 who has a 3 year old was cut off my moms cell plan by my mom during one of their numerous fights. I added her to our plan to help her out. She's being a typical brat who thinks she's entitled to stuff just because she exists. Now that her and my mom aren't fighting they talk constantly, I have the phone records to prove it, she's even shared the wonderful things my mother (who I stopped talking to because everything wrong in her life is my fault and I look so much like my father she divorced etc.) says about me.
My BD12 has brought up a few times now that SD12 has said, that "the only reason my dad hasn't kicked you all out is because he likes having someone here that cooks and cleans". By 'you all' she means myself, my BD6, BD12, and BD16. Of course I know this isn't true, however, it is hurtful that she STILL after three years living together as a family, doesn't 'get it' that her father and I love each other and plan on spending the rest of our lives together.
Well they met for dinner. First time together in 9 months. I stayed home, not my place to go. Not really happy with him, that she picked a Saturday night when we didn't have kids to do this. Yeah, great we won't get another one of those for three months, I am sure. I have no doubt that was intentional.
This is stupid, I know. But I am interested in the answers.
If your DH could save you OR the BM from death...who do you think he would choose? You or the mother of his little angles?
