Is BioHo losing another one?

Things are... weird in Anikiland. I don't know if that last Full Moon is still sending off strange vibes or if BioHo's behavior is finally catching up with her. Let me recap the skids...

SD26 (DH's step)
She finally owned up to 'Ho's success at step-PASing and her own shite behavior and we reconciled. For those who don't recall, BioHo made a YUGE scene at SD26's graduation party. A few weeks later, 'Ho flipped her shizzit again and caused another, more spectacular but more private scene. She has been estranged from 'Ho ever since. Just found out SD26 and family are actually shunning the 'Ho House for Christmas.

SD23 (DH's bio)
SD23 (aka mini BioHo) turned into a major moneygrubbing twunt (I want MY money!!!) and has become more and more UNlikeable (for a good seven years now) as her 'Ho habits have grown. A month ago, she sent me flowers with a note that said "I'm sorry, Aniki. Love, SD23". Obviously, the sincerity is questionable as the timing is suspect...

SS20 (DH's bio)
Three years ago (6 months before graduating HS), he asked DH if he could move in with us full-time. We all know that would NEVER fly because 'Ho the Narc was not about to a) lose CS and b) let one of her 'extensions' leave the nest for DH's. So SS20 drastically changed gears and "escaped" to the Army days after he graduated. When DH asked him why he didn't wait? "It's too crazy there, Dad. I can't stand it there any more."

SS17 (DH's step)
It's been a wild ride with this young man. Years ago, he thought if all of his clothes were at our house, he would HAVE to move in with us. That only resulted in DH having to pack up everything that SS had been gradually sneaking over in his backpack and haul it back to the 'Ho House. A couple of years ago, SS asked DH if he could live with us. Once again, 'Ho is not about to let one of hers escape. Especially since she would have to pay CS to DH. Also, since DH is not the bio father, he'd have to go to court to gain custody. Yeah. Not happening. Ever since then, SS17 has been talking about fleeing, er moving, to AZ as soon as he graduates HS.

So, now that you're caught up....

SD23 called DH Friday and asked if he could meet her for lunch Saturday - and she's buying (wow!). Naturally, I got the poop when he got home. Poop bullets:

SD got engaged Thursday. She asked if she can bring her fiance to our house for Christmas. She ASKED (insert bug eyes). DH, of course, said "yes".
SD admitted she'd been struggling with rent (it was pretty $$). DH asked her why she didn't move back home ('Ho would prefer a commune with all of her kids living there with their partners, grandchildren...). SD said, "I can't, Dad. Mom is f*cking crazy!". At this point, DH thought she was going to ask him for money. She did NOT! Turns out, SD and her fiance closed on their first house on Friday. Who'dathunk?!?!
Then SD asked DH if he thought that *I* would meet her for dinner one night soon because "I really need to talk to Aniki and make things right". I told DH I needed to think about it.

Am I dreaming?? Someone pinch me.

FTR, I will ALWAYS be cautious and believe that the skids will eventually make their ways back to 'Ho. That tainted blood is STRONG.

Holy wow, there are Christmas

Holy wow, there are Christmas miracles after all!

Blue is a good color on me,

Blue is a good color on me, but I'm not holding my breath. After all of her increasingly awful shite over the years, I intend to be quite circumspect...

Well, well, well

The SD23 seems like she is on track somewhat and all the others are trying to scatter into the wind.

But the chickens always come home to roost at the Ho-House!

Maybe.... Admittedly, I'm

Maybe.... Admittedly, I'm suspicious despite this. She has been THE worst. Even DH has said she's a beeyotch.

It's a trap! (Sheldon)

Dunno Aniki. She's been a right bitch. Proceed with EXTREME CAUTION.

I will certainly be watching

I will certainly be watching my six, WarMachine!

I too would say proceed with

I too would say proceed with caution, I know you will anyway. I'm glad SD23 is showing some signs of good adulting - long may it continue. My own SD23 has got a full time job in London, has a rented room in a shared house there - and pays her own bills - good for her - but I still want to hold her at arm's length. She was always the one of the two who was especially vile to me, down the years.

Yes, you know I will, Kes!

Yes, you know I will, Kes! Maybe working in the medical field has given SD23 some compassion and understanding.

This is a perfect situation

This is a perfect situation for cautious optimism. Though, your DH has made is ABUNDANTLY clear that he won't tolerate her crap. Is she aware that if she screws this up or tries to play him that he'll be done? He isn't a pushover, and he won't let you be pushed around, either.

Your BM puts the "ho" in "horrible", so it's possible that SD23 has had an epiphany much like SD26.

I LOL'd at that, LD. So very true!!!

I don't know if DH will be done with SD23 if she pulls more crap. No, he is not a pushover, but she's his daughter and he loves her. He's said more than once that if anyone tried to make him choose between them and me, he would choose me. Per DH: "They'll still be my kids. Nothing can change that. Even if they never speak to me again."

Another epiphany would be nice!
