BM, I'm so far ahead of you we're in different timezones...

This is really just a bit of an update regarding my blog last week. http://www.steptalk.org/node/172274 The one in which twat waffle hit dh with a $600+ "medical bill" that she wanted paid to directly to her. SS was here over the weekend. I made some small conversation with him even though I basically disengaged months ago. I asked him what he was going to ask Santa for.

This holiday I'm thankful I don't own a wood-chipper...

I'm thankful I don't own a wood-chipper. If I did, I would hurl dh and bm into it. As I sensed, something was awry on Friday evening when I got home. Dh was glued to ss's side. I thought about relaxing, but instead said "f*ck it" at 10 p.m. when ss was still up as I had to work early the next day. After a grueling day on Saturday I arrived home to the words, "We need to talk." Yes, I had already assumed that. Dh instructed me to "Sit down." This of course leads me to the conclusion that this conversation is about two things: Twat Waffle and money. And of course, I was right!

It's the most wonderful time of the year...

Yes, it is indeed! Why do you ask? Because I don't have to spend the holidays with dh's contentious, cantankerous, judgmental, pompous family!! That's right! No freaking in-laws this year or ever as far as I'm concerned. They made their choice earlier this year, and it was bm. I have to say, as much as dh disappoints me in many regards, I am proud of his resolve on this issue. He cut them off and my life has been more pleasant in that respect. Two less soul-sucking villains (FIL & MIL) in my world. They are dead to us. And good riddance to bad rubbish.

How does DH take advantage of me? Let me count the ways...

In light of recent events involving both ss and bm and an almost year long custody dispute, I chose to disengage. I made this plainly clear to dh and discussed it in a non-accusatory way. I thought he understood. Evidently, he didn't. I told dh that I would no longer be watching ss, alone, on my personal time and he would have to make other arrangements in the future.

DH's petty jealousy regarding my bios...

Does anybody else experience this with their dh/bf/so? I'm truly baffled that an adult would act this way. So a little background, last night was parent-teacher conferences for my bios. Since my exH is a ghost he obviously does not attend. DH usually tags along to these things. He makes an effort to "try" at least to show support to my bios. My youngest bio is in Kindergarten and doing extremely well. His teacher adores him and she informed me that he is above grade-level! I was ecstatic to hear this. He had high marks consistently on his report card.

The opposite of love is indifference...

I've been playing a new game lately with dh, and I've been winning. Had I only known it would be this simple, I would've done this a year ago. After a long heart to heart with my sister I realized that, contrary to popular belief, bm (twat waffle) is NOT my problem. She is obsessed with me and dh and has made it her mission to infect every facet of my life. So I just stopped. Yep, it was that easy. I have ceased to mention her name or even think about her for weeks now. And it's working.

Dear Abby sounds like a bitter bm....

I'm not sure if somebody already blogged about this but who the eff does Dear Abby think she is?! I'm glad she can surmise the entire dynamic of a blended family from one paragraph. This is a prime example of why we, as stepmoms, feel isolated, outnumbered and hopelessly misunderstood. Thanks for perpetuating the cycle, Abby... You opinionated old sandbag.
