It's the small things that drive me crazy!!
I realize this is a minor thing, but I get so tired of THAT B*TCH poking into our lives when it is not necessary. I want as little contact from her / with her as humanly possible and it should ONLY concern the SD.
The BM took the SD 6yo (who has only met her grandfather 2, maybe 3 times) with her to her hometown for the BM's father's iminent death and subsequent funeral. When the father died yesterday afternoon, the BM immediately calls and leaves a message for my BF to tell him. Now I could understand if my BF had had a close relationship with the father, which he never had, or if the SD had a close relationship with her grandfather, which she didn't - she barely knew the man. And why did she call BF?? He could give a rat's *ss about the man, because of major problems that occurred due to him during BM & BF's marriage. AND the BM is remarried! You would think she would call her husband to cry on his shoulder, NOT my BF!!
Then SD calls BF last night when we were out, so BF called her back and the BM answers. She's like, did you get my message, kind of weepy, and I about wanted to gag. BF was reserved with her and just said yes, and please let me talk to SD, I'm returning her call.
I really try hard to ignore her, but this stuff just drives me looney.

YEAH our BM did it last night too
BF called to tell her he would get the kids Friday instead of Wednes night she says ok then calls back and says "Can I ask you a question...." I hate it when she does that cause then they both get angry and by the end of this conversation she told him that he can NOT get them friday B/C of how he is talking to her. She is such a CHICKEN HEAD
I don't think that's necessarily a minor thing.
I mean, the marriage is over. BM must find someone else to bring her life's concerns to -- she must have family or friends, and, as you point out, a husband. Having BM call your husband just to pass the time, gossip, reminisce, or have a shoulder to cry on is way out of line. On the up side, your husband seems to have handled (or not handled it) just perfectly. Good luck.
I understand
When DH's grandma passed away 2 years ago we had to ask BM to keep SS so we could travel to Las Vegas to take care of business (we were power of attorney, and had to give the okay to let her go... that was HARD). So, there was no way of NOT telling BM what was going on... she would have told us to take SS with us had we just said we were going there to visit or whatever. SO, she called every couple of hours to see if gramma had passed yet. Well, the phone didn't work in the hospital so we didn't get any of her calls. So she started calling DH's MOM... they HATE each other. My MIL answered the phone, in the room, with gramma lying there dying and told her "don't you pretend like this concerns you, this is OUR family, not YOURS. Stop calling". It was crazy. I can look back now and laugh, because she was put in her place... but at the time I wanted to ring her neck. Just another excuse to call, and an excuse for attention. She is still "mourning" the death of her friend (that she hadn't talked to in YEARS) that died LAST September, yeah 2006. Then her friend that was murdered... still hear about THAT one every time she calls.... it has been a month, time to move on... and at least not talk about it EVERYDAY. We didn't know her... and DH has told her find new friends yours keep getting murdered.
