April Update & YSD
YSD18 hasn't been here but for once in early February this year.
DH is increasingly upset about it. I keep telling him to continue to ask her, leave her messages, etc. but don't stop. It's not like her really but I have to wonder, child support ended for him at the end of February....She is also really terrible at communications and human engagement which I also remind him of so it may actually not be a personal thing.
STILL I tell him, it's rude.
I encourage him to go to her. Seek her out. Set a date.

BM just won’t STOP.
For a little refresher... SO and BM have been separated 13 years...they did get back together briefly (aka BM had no man at the time and SO was stupid) but it lasted maybe 2 months and that was 11 years ago. I've been with SO 8.5 years and BM is married and has been with her husband longer then I've been with SO. She lives 4 miles from us. There is SS20, SS19 and SDstb17 (3 weeks)

Happy Easter, Passover, Ramadan.
Mom, dad, and DW picked me up at the airport at 20:00 on Friday evening. We had a great quick weekend at mom and dad's. Saturday we had breakfast with mom, dad, niece, and her DH then went to my brother's house for a morning visit on Saturday. We ended up having lunch at my brothers "club".
Have I mentioned that my baby bro is a business executive savant? He has done exceptionally well. No envy on my part. Just pure pride in the man, DH, dad, son, brother, and leader that he is. Please give me a lump in my throat proud big brother reset moment. Ha... hmmmm.

2 months of no SD
In the last installment of SD14 is PAS'd out, she had made some vague statements to her counselor about wanting to move to Alaska while Crazy was on vacation, so DH had to go pick her up and take her for a night. That was a few weeks ago and she hasn't been here since, but of course there have still been boatloads of drama.

I did a bad thing. I went through the kid’s phone.
I’m at a complete and total loss, and truly just seeking advice, because I have no idea what to do. Some background information is that we have SS14, SD12, and SS5 every other week. SS14 has always had a temper and fighting troubles. BM has always bailed him out of everything. BM isn’t the best figure and neither is any of her family. In the six years that I’ve been with my husband, she’s probably had five separate occasions of unemployment, and from memory, eight different jobs (I know there are more, but I just don’t remember all of them).
Introvert Revelation
How many Step moms or former step moms are introverts?
Part of the reason I left the home I shared with my ex (aka Disneyland Dad of the Year) was that his lazy layaway plan pr0stitute and feral spawns disturbed my peace in my home on a regular basis. When I said something I got dismissed.

DH makes a funny
My pocket manager (my phone) has stopped talking to me. I set an alarm reminder for something today and I did not receive the expected confirmation from Siri.
I commented to DH that Siri must be tired or upset with me. DH says, "Or she's gotten instructions from SD."
Laughter all around.
SS called yesterday, finally. I didn't stick around to hear the whole convo, but what I did hear was all about SS, his latest car repair, and the great job he's sure he's on the verge of getting. I could write the script.

Toxic MIL
DH's Mom (My MIL) is toxic. She reminds us exactly of BM. DH doesn't have a relationship with her outside of seeing her at extended family functions and a text on birthdays/Christmas. MIL constantly blames me for this, instead of acknowledging how her own behavior led to this type of relationship.

A difference of opinion
We were doing our quarterly financial discussion yesterday. I reminded DH86 that when he passes, I will no longer be able to subsidize SD62's shelter expense since it's coming from his Social Security which will stop. I often tell him this, hoping he will discuss with her so she can begin to plan. He doesn't usually respond.
