Happy New Year Stalk
Things have been great these holidays. Donkeykong actually allowed SS to stay with us a bit longer these days which meant no crying and lamenting from DW. The only sour point is DW pulling rank on me and letting SS play his precious video games because...
- wait for it -
...it's the holidays.
So, in the short time that we have SS in our custody, he's been binging. I don't blame him. And I am not going to be the Grinch and force the issue. SS has pretty much shut himself off from everyone to satisfy his addiction. The only time he comes out is to use the bathroom which I am convinced he can't do unless the iPad goes in with him.
I'm supposed to pick SS up later and bring him back to our place. DW and I have planned a party and DW told SS that he can invite his friends (including his girlfriend). SS hasn't invited anyone, so guess what he'll be doing the whole time he is here?
But like I said...apart from this, these holidays have been quite memorable. Santa was very generous!
So how have your holidays been so far?

My DH does the same thing-
My DH does the same thing- only skids get xbox and iPad any time regardless if it's a holiday or not. DH tried to debate the issue with me and I slammed him down on that one. He's just full of excuses.
Besides the skids not brushing their teeth for 7 and Prince not showering just as long, it was a pretty nice holiday. DH let the skids sleep at Swamp Holes on Christmas night which was a gift in and of itself
Happy New Year to you and yours!
Read what exactly? Because
Read what exactly? Because the term "reading" these days takes on a whole new meaning. Online video game strategy guides constitutes as "reading". If by "reading" you meant actually opened up a book with actual typed words, I am in shock!

SS forgoes armor altogether. Armor means weight restriction which means math calculations.

Dang, and here I am with an upset stomach. No alcohol for me this New Year's Eve. Even a light beer will send me running to the bathroom.

Holidays were great for us (a first since we've been married). In the 3 years that DH and I have been married we've had SD13 for EVERY holiday (including mother's day). Every holiday sucks because although DH has plenty of time to take off he doesn't want to use it on taking care of his daughter and he doesn't want to tell BM no. This year BM is playing MOTY and invited her immediate family down here for christmas so she needed her prop . . . .SD13.
This Christmas was full of love, fun and food
DH get's along great with my family and he had a blast. No running around trying to find SD for pickup, no BM changing plans at the last minute, no SD13 locking herself in the guest room (doing who knows what) and sitting in corners like we are abusing her, no walking on egg shells! SD showed up to the gift exchange and dinner at my dad's and then DH took her back home (we did this on Saturday). I actually remembered why I married DH
****I wonder what BM's mother would say if she knew this was the first Christmas BM has spent with SD in the past 3 years. I'm not talking about just Christmas day people . .. I'm talking about Christmas break (2 wks). She would not even call SD during this time!
Not this chick. It was
Not this chick. It was painful watching SD trying to celebrate Mother's Day with someone that is not her mother. DH doesn't care because in his mind he won . . .he got SD for a visit. When I mentioned this to DH he gave me the line . . ."you just don't want her here". Disengaging is such a wonderufl thing.
Well, the "it's the holidays"
Well, the "it's the holidays" line is a nice break from the usual "poor skids are from a broken home" that we usually hear.
