New to sites like this. I have a bonus daughter of the age of 15, almost 16. We have had full custody of her for the past 5 years. Since 2015 she has been constantly stealing my things to the point I have put a lock on my bedroom door. We have noticed this past year she has been now stealing for stores. Last fall her dad finally took her done to the police station in
DH and I have been together for over 6 years. We got together soon after I moved to the state (not knowing anyone) and him going thru a divorce (and losing any friendships he did have because BM "won" those friends). So it's just been the 2 of us most of this time.I have a friend from high school that moved to the area that I go out to dinner with at most every other month. DH started a bowling league that goes every Tuesday after DD18 months was born because he needed to get out of the house for himself.

So Little Idiot (SD almost 19) just came back from her vacation in FL last night. Apparently on the last day, she squeezed in a few hours of time with The Skunk Ape (her mother - the one who kicked her out as soon as the CS well ran dry at 18). I don’t mind, I was actually hoping that they would reconcile and maybe she would move back with her but alas the arguing apparently continued. MOTY has to have her Facebook photo op to keep up appearances which was I suspect the real reason for the visit.
Luckily I'm disengaged from the parenting of SD16 but it still amazes me to see how unaware DH is. It's also hard to see SD or any person go into a dangerous situation when it doesnt have to be that way.
It's a Tubby Tuesday for me. Insomnia has me tightly in its grasp and I'm struggling to maintain my focus and energy.
Who likes cycling? It's Spring and everything is coming alive (well, it some parts of the country...). Cruise the neighborhood or local nature trail and check out Mother Nature awakening from her Winter sleep.
My SD has an extremely bratty/spoiled attitude and I am getting to the point that I can't take it anymore. She is only 6 but I swear she has the attitude of a 13 year old. In the mornings the past two weeks she has done two things that really upset me:
1. Came downstairs with her birthday list and proceeded to tell me that she was mad because she didn't get this, this, and THAT from her list that she WANTED! This was after we spent a lot of time and money planning a birthday party for her and her friends that she seemingly isn't grateful for at all.

So BM was quiet for a few months then the psycho comes out to play again. She had another episode when DH ignored her text messages about driver's ed and she asked if she could have one of DH's weekends so the skid's to see her their grandmother. Well first of the all the kid doesn't turn 15 until October so she won't be able to sign him up for driver's ed until then. I told DH that if he wants to coordinate driver's ed with BM then that was up to him but I wasn't going to let the psycho dictate my weekends.
OSD is getting braces, DH attempted calling to get treatment information as well as make payment arrangements on our side. The office said that BM has to authorize him to release information. So, we ask her to authorize as we would prefer making payments to the office directly. Also, unfortunately we have learned not to take BM's word for anything.
