Fastest and easiest way to find out who owns a cell phone number? Even if you have to pay for it. My friend got some weird texts and wants to know who they are from.

I'm sure you super sleuths know something. LOL!

Sorry blog hog today...

DH and BS get along pretty well. BS respects DH and listens to him and does what he tells him. Overall BS is a pretty good kid and if you tell him to do something he does it, though there are times that you have to push BS to do what he needs to do. He'll keep trying to put it off.

How important do you think it is for your SO to set the skids straight when they are wrong?

Here are a couple of personal examples that come to mind and the "consequence" of not setting the record straight.

Example #1-

YSD is asking DH for $ for something school related and he tells her no and she says "Well you have no business helping Zero's son with anything."

Truth- DH doesn't help pay for anything when it comes to my BS. We split mutual bills but outside of that I pay for all the other stuff for my BS.

**Don't ever accuse a stepmom of being pessimistic or negative. Quit telling her to try harder. So often, our anger or bad days come from being let down and disappointed over and over again by waking up and thinking this day will be different. Or, that if we try this or that a little more, it will click. We give people more chances than they deserve to hurt us, use us, and criticize us. And the minute we try to defend our self or show just a bit of emotion outside of sunshine and happy, they blame us. We are the poster child for optimism and hope.
