Hi folks- it's been a minute since I've posted as things have been somewhat decent. Perhaps I've just gotten exceptionally good at blocking out nonsense when it comes to SS16 (and most importantly DH's dynamic with SS16).
Over the past month, I have felt my anxiety level slightly increasing. I've done so well in the past with detaching from skid s***, but I feel this creeping fog rolling in.
It's time to upgrade our phones... we get free upgrades through TMobile every year assuming the trade in is in good working order. Problem is Little Idiot told us her phone was cracked.... which might make it ineligible for trade in. Last time this happened we ended up paying a couple hundred extra on our first bill because she cracked her last phone. They still accepted it though but this time it is worse. The phone before that was also cracked but it was a small crack on the edge they didn't catch so... no extra charge that time.
So last night was horrible for SO. I did cave in and go to the pre dinner. SO pleased to not make him go alone. I am glad i went. SDs step dad was dressed up so we knew he would also be walking. SD never told SO that her stepdad was still going to do this. Even though my SO had asked if it was just him and BM several times. Each girl had pictures of growing up and SO was not in one of them. Her step dad and step brothers were in several. My SO almost broke down he was so upset. I didn't go to the game but watched it live stream.
So stepgrandson had his first birthday party which we were invited to. Unfortunately they scheduled his party for early afternoon and time scheduled to end was 4pm, which would have meant DD9 wouldn’t be able to attend as she gets out of school at 3. I communicated this to SS24 who said “oh” but he didn’t change the time which was fine.
I just came across this and it is.. important to share.
When People are Upset With You
@heybobbibanks. Bobbi B. Psychotherapist
Because I'm tired of being a 'stepmother'.
I hate it, actually.
I hate the disrespect, the attitude.
I hate the apathy.
I hate the wasted time, emotions, sanity.
All the best years of my life are over and wasted on a brat that could care less if I was alive or dead.
Let me reiterate, *ahem* I DETEST BEING A STEPMOTHER.
Step child comes around and it makes me catch my breath.
Like a medium-sized black hole sucking the joy out of life.
A bottomless pit of anger and resentment.
My heart has become an abyss.
Thank you everyone for your congratulations on DD, she is 2 months today! She is absolutely adorable and all the dogs absolutely love her.
Steplife has been pretty quiet since SD went back to BMs. There hasn't even been any drama on scheduling calls with SD either. SD is doing pretty well in school thanks to the IEP and it seems like her teacher understands about kids with divorced parents and keeps them both equally informed.
I'm back after spending 14 days in Scotland and England. We dropped off my second oldest for grad school at St. Andrews Scotland
10 days in London...
I loved the UK...I must say
Your public transit is AMAZING....
I loved all the sites and the food...you all know what a proper portion size is..for the first time in forever I didn't have to take over 1/2 of my meal home.
Scotland...specifically ST. Andrews...BEAUTIFULL...loved all of it. I cannot wait to go back there.
Hey everyone, first time posting and I'm afraid I've come to vent!!
Bit of background, I've been with my husband 6 1/2 years and between us we have 4 young adults
Both of us split with our exes years ago when the kids were much younger
