We’re home from vacation…what's new?

Not much, yet. the Leech is still living in our house. *sigh… plans are now seriously being made to get him out, because I am taking over

I am arranging to have a cleaning crew clean Uncles House. It’s like a bio-hazard in there and if the step-grandbaby is going to be there, I don’t want him in the five inches of dust and goodness only knows what floating around in the air

Once the house is cleaned, Leech is supposed to fix the toilet in the bathroom and then move in. if that doesn't happen, I will either go and fix it myself or I'll hire someone to do it

I am not a "happy Camper" (OT)

I got a call from my DD's Camp Counsor telling me to come get DD now, because she was being a problem and needed to be removed

I high-tailed out of work and drove like a maniac to the Camp
When I get there I expect that DD will be in the office by herself or something, but she’s not… she’s sitting in the teen room hanging with her friends

One of DD's friends says "your mom is here”

At which time "J" the 20 year old camp counselor jumps up and meets me outside the room

I didn’t leave...

I figure I’ve been with the man I love for eleven years…with some counseling (for me, him and my kid) we can figure this out

I was about to go… I had enough
I sent Leech and his girlfriend the following text message

Don’t worry about “looking for an apartment”…I know you blow too much money on indulging yourselves to have any saved to actually take responsibility for yourselves and your child and MOVE out, so I will be out of your hair soon enough

(okay, maybe a little dramatic)
I spent Monday and Tuesday night on the couch

WWIII last night… not sure whether it’s even worth saving this marriage

At dinner last night, I told the mister that I had to send Leech ANOTHER text, to tell him to empty the blow up pool he bought and put on the back deck…it’s been sitting with stagnant water and has become a breeding place for mosquitos…
(yeah ok whatever)

peaceful, calm weekend..will be coming to and end soon

How was our weekend peaceful and calm you wonder?? Because Leech took grandbaby to his sisters for the weekend and the g/f is staying at her mom's apartment. No Leech! No g/f, and sorry but no grandbaby too look after.... it's been awesome.
The drama will resume tonight, when he comes home
The grandbaby has been eating three meals a day...(like we've been telling the parents he SHOULD be at a year and a half old)

I have a confession: there’s another man in my life

We’re anonymous here right? I can talk about this stuff, since it’s “just us”

Okay, so he’s smooth and dark and sweet and smells heavenly! I’ve been seeing a lot more of him. Especially lately…because when I’m stressed out, he really has a way of making me feel better

He’s fun to party with, and I am taking him with me for my overnight get away with my husband…

Oh, yeah… My husband brings him home to me…. He even PAYS for him

His name… is Captain Morgan!

(now get yer’ minds outta the gutters mateys….. argh!)

The “not me” gremlin and the adult “Child” living in my home

Last weekend I spent at my mothers (nursing her well, she had a second round of face lift surgery… Joan Rivers would be proud) anyway… I was there from Friday mid-day to Sunday night
.

Sunday late morning, The Mister came home from a Wal-Mart run to find Leech (his son) CLEANING THE KITCHEN… and Leech out a puncture hole in the sink… (we have a stainless steel sink) The Mister said “how’d that happen??”

“Not me” Must have been cprestons’ kid… it looks like SHE was using the scissors or something to break ice… and it put a hole in the sink

Really?

Really starting to worry…

I have been forced into making the ultimatum “either they go, or I do” I hated doing it… I hated the fact that my husband wouldn’t do anything unless I said that… but now I’m starting to worry…

His son is supposed to start giving us money EVERY month (again, we’ve tried this before, we’ve gotten ‘rent’ three times)

DH neglected to tell me the first time when his son stopped giving him rent… I would have insisted on doing something RIGHT THEN AND THERE but he just didn’t tell me.

I know it’s my own damn fault, but I’m still madder than spit!~

LONG post, sorry and I don't blame you if you don't read the whole thing, this is me venting!
Backstory, I’ve had a rocky relationship with my oldest sister for about three years. She can be a venomous person. When our Mom got really sick about a year ago and was hospitalized, the three of us “girls” put whatever personal issues we had aside to take care of our Mom
