BM's way to place guilt on her children

My SS who is 7 and SD who is 9 told us last night that...

The reason Santa only brought them one present at their moms house is because she had to PAY santa claus for the presents and she could only afford to send money for one.

She said... "That is why you got more than one present at dad's house...because he can afford more presents from Santa!"

HA! Crazy woman!

I'm still PMSing.

Morning from hell !!

I'm PMSing! ARGGGGGGGGGGGG!

I hate it when I'm like this and my husband says the classic....

"Oh, you'll need a nap today!"

This is after I get the kids up and do the normal morning rituals. Get dressed, breakfast, put backpacks in orders, sign assignments, snacks, lunches, etc.

Question:

What is the best way to handle a SD who:
1. Interupts whenever her father and I are talking. (will sulk and say "NEVERMIND" when we tell her that it's not nice to interupt)

2. Comes and pushes herself inbetween us while we are walking or sitting on the couch.

3. Will come and sit directly on top of her father if she has no room to come in between.

This has been going on for almost 2 years. My reaction has always been......

1. I will act like it completely doesn't bother me.
2. I walk away.

Ahhh...Monday morning!

It was one of the weekends where I wake up on Saturday morning and instantly wish I was back living my "single-parent" lifestyle. My two kids would wake in the mornings and it was just quiet around the house.

Boy, it's far from that now. My husband and my eyes are openend suddenly from the SS's noises, beeps, whistles, stomps, clamping, dancing, etc. movements. He's telling everybody to "shut-up!", "move over!", "I hate this show!".......and as my hubby is running for his medication, I'm wishing for the quiet days.

What hurts....

I take my step-children to school and pick them up from school every day but Thursday......What hurts is on Thursdays when their mom picks them up.....they pretend they don't know me as they walk past me to get into moms car.

Can't wait for the day this will all change...

Am I alone in this one?

Good Morning!

Well, the xmas shopping is done. We have a great evening planned with all the kids at a christmas party. The children go to their BM and BD for xmas eve and come back home at 10pm to wake up with us on Christmas morning. I'm very excited.

However.......what keeps looming in my mind is that Tuesday morning I will have SS and SD all week (along with my two) because school is out. This means that I have a whole week of backtalk, eye rolling, feet stomping, yelling, and disrespect. URGHGGGGG...

This is where I was told to go......:(

Hello,

I've asked many people "where do I go for help?"...and I've said so many times "I need somewhere to fall". My heart is in two and my outlook is growing more dim.

I'm a mother of 2...married to a wonderful man who has 2 children of his own. My children live with us (visits with dad every other weekend), and his children live with us the same. So, to his children, they portray it as..."we live at dads all the time, and we never get to see mom".
