Man, these skids and their expectations of double-holidays due to divorce. Typically we have done something for Easter for skids because we either have them, or they were younger so it made sense- an easter egg hunt, baskets. This year, SS is less than a month from 16, and SD is coming up on 13. Plus we didn't have them on Easter, Crazy did. But guess who is the one who facillitates any Easter baskets/gifts? That would be me. DH isn't into this stuff. I asked DH if he wanted to do anything this year and he said no- we don't have them on Easter and they are too old anyway.

Was just talking to DH about how the past few times skids have been with us, SD12 has been aloof, barely talking to me. He said she's been the same with him. I think it's partially PAS, he's not so sure because this has happened before and she's bounced back. He thinks it's partially because he's gone for work most nights. But I know Crazy has been working on them, she recently made them delete all pics of me from their phones. I told DH I know for a fact that she hangs out with Crazy outside of her room, while here she doesn't leave her room.

Yesterday SS15 was big mad and wouldn't say hi or talk to me when he got home from school. I suspected DH had put screen time on his phone (this was after SS was staying up all night and needing to nap for 3hrs in the afternoon) when he is supposed to go to bed at 11pm. DH didn't like enforcing the rule, but I initially was like, look- you are working and I'm here with them- enforce the rules!

It's been a hot minute since I've been on here, probably because step-life has been so smooth and stress-free the past few years! 

Just kidding, it's still a sh*t show.
