Do you check your horoscope? Daily? Weekly? Sometimes when it hits you? Do you believe they're accurate? Find a way to interpret your day to fit it? Just curious.
I check when I think about it and I usually just want it to acknowledge some kind of karma is goingto come to the bitchmom and skids and I'm a good person.
Do you have a favorite site to check yours?
This evening I pulled a crazy BM.
It's been hot and I have not turned the A/C on yet, I am seeing how long I can save money since another person posted A/C was a luxury and I thought about how they might be right. So I am usually in very little when in the house. The past few days I have been living in sports bras and loose lightweight shorts or FDH's boxers. Today I wore a pair of "booty shorts" with my greek letters and a sports bra. I do not have the stomach for this. I usually never show my belly because I carry my weight there and it is artic white.
Ok, so I have two boys that live with me, SS5 & SS4. I have a BD9months. My hubby works two jobs and so I am home with the kids all ALL the time. Which I love being at home. But....
It's a question I've been trying to answer for quite a while.
Many good friends of mine and I have endured abuse by the hands of men (and for this purpose I'm using the pronoun "he" and the word "men," but obviously this does not only apply to one gender) and have studied the attributes associated with sociopathy in the attempt to discern if we were dealing with a man who was raised in a manner so dysfunctional as to create an abuser versus dealing with a man who could potentially be clinically diagnosed as sociopathic (or, perhaps, narcissistic).
My mom brought over a sunday dinner of homemade fried chicken, oven baked macaroni & cheese, some greens and buttermilk biscuts yum right? well when SS10 saw the plate he immediately started complaining about how much he hates cabbage and how the chicken smells funny. After hearing this SS5 who usually loves my moms greens starts crying about how he doesn't like them. When told to eat he starts coughing as hard as he can.
We just had a huge fight minutes ago about the fire last night and about his kids that was wrong in my eyes but right in his and how hard he's been trying to please the BM. I don't know how much of his GDS I can take. At the end of the fight, there came his infamous comment, "I know you are not happy here. Just admit it, you know what you need to do." Well, it's his way to tell me to move out on my own accord because he won't tell me to since he's a nice guy. He used this line every single time we had a fight.
I typed this whole long story out earlier, but it didn't post. Long story short, the shit hit the fan on Friday. Told SO, FDH, whatever the hell we are right now that I couldn't talk to him after the shit he's pulled without professional help. Want to screen this therapist for step-mom bias/issues. Wanted to know if you guys have been to couples counseling and how the first session went. I'm making a list of the things I want to address tonight, but I could use some words of wisdom for you guys who have been there. I. At my wits end.
I do not like you. 
Had friends over last night, took your suggestion. Everytime skid3 made a comment about herself we took a shot.
Company spent the night. All are hung over. Lots of empty booze bottles.
And the dang kids first words to me this morning:
"JHW look! Look! I tried something new with my hair.. admit it I look hot!"
:sick:
First I want to say thank every one of you! I found this site just by googling help for step mom's and I haven't stopped visiting since. It's like having somewhat of a weight lifted off my shoulders knowing that I'm not alone in all this.
Skids wanted to go to game stop to trade games in so they could give the credit to my BS for his bday. Awesome in itself. But then BS wanted to trade some games too so went with them. He didn't know that that is what the skids planned. So then they told him to pick out a game with the credit he was excited. So they had credit left and they got dh a game that he had been wanting. Yay so proud of these little boogers!
