My neice (slightly off topic)

Fade to black's picture

Wow. I just left a family Halloween party at my sister's house. Her husband has a job out  of state for months at a time. So its just me, my dh (who smartly left early), my 7 y/o son, my mom (widowed 6 years), my sister and her 2 kids nephew 15 and niece 9. (Other bioson 13 had elected to go to a Halloween carnival with a friend so he wasnt involved). Neice 9 has always been "the princess". Never could do no wrong. Everything bad that happened was someone elses fault.

Well, SD18 got arrested

Dh got the call from BM yesterday.  Evidently Sd was driving somewhere far away with friends,  was speeding and got pulled over and was charged with possession of marijuana, possession of controlled substance penalty group 2, and drug paraphernalia.  

She was booked, took a mugshot,  and spent the night in jail until BM found someone to pay the percentage of the bond. 

Petty vent

Hear ye, hear ye! Dh got a call from sd17 today about a crisis she needed his help solving. The crisis? She is 2 months behind in her sorority membership dues, and the sorority is threatening to send her info to collections. (First world prob extraordinaire)

The Christmas Card

Fade to black's picture

Im needing 3rd party perspective on this card sd gave me for Christmas. Sd 16 stb17 moved 250 miles away last July with BM and BM New BF after telling the world how horrible I am and she just cannot live with me. (She moved in with us at 11 after saying the same thing about her stepdad). I still have the bus tire tracks on my back.

Oh good Lord!

So I havent seen or talked to sd16 in 5 months, not since she lied all over town about how she cant live with me, Im horrible and mean,etc, so she could move 250 miles away to live with bm (who is not yet divorced from her dh) and bm's new internet boytoy. No matter that I was in her life since she was 18 months old, treated her like my own, opened my family to her. Apparently treating her like my own was good as long as it was buying gifts, organizing bday parties, Christmas, running her and her friends around ad nauseum.

The Conclusion

Well, after a very trying few days and a fight between DH and BM, DH is letting sd16 go with BM to BM's bf town 300 miles away. We talked with sd and tried logic and reason but her only response was she just wants to be with BM. BM told DH that our rules and punishments were too strict and sd is always grounded and she has to look out for her daughters happiness.

Update to Preparing for the Worst

Hey guys! I am back again Smile It turns out that the reason sd wasnt returning dh's calls was because bm's current dh took the phone when bm left him for her current bf. When bm asked him about seeing her kids (the ones she has with him) he told sd that she needed to call her dad. Ok, sounds legit so we worried for nothing right?
