I posted this in a comment in CLD0711's blog. I thought I would post it here.
This is an actual notice we have this posted on our bathroom door (facing the outside):
Message to children from occupant
1) Yes! This door is closed. Yes it is closed for a reason. No, nothing is wrong. I am simply taking a dump and wish to do so in PRIVATE. That means I want to be by myself.
I've been in Atlanta for 23 days. It feels like much longer. On the upside, I get to go home this week for the holiday, which is great because it's the only time I'll get to see SO between now at September 30th. These last 3 weeks have been borderline unbearable being away from him. The next few months will be horrible, I'm sure.
I am trying to be understanding because his dad passed away recently but FDH is PISSING me off with sticking his nose into my financial affairs! I put $2000 down on a brand new car for my BD19 for her birthday and he is running his mouth about it. We have separate finances. BD19 got her loan herself, I just put down the down payment as a birthday gift. He is bitching about the money I spend on my kids. I pay my own bills including my share of our household expenses, I have savings and I also have money going towards our retirement someday.
Oh, the shit my BM says.
Convo between DH and BM after dinner this evening.
DH: SS told us you're going to send him oreos.
BM: He asked. So I said yes, then he started to cry saying you don't keep unhealthy food in the house so he can't have them. If I send a small pack, will you let him have them? It seemed so important to him and I hate to see him that sad.
DH: No, primarily because we won't let the girls have any (namely DD right now)and it wouldn't be fair.
When I first moved in with my husband, I thought his kids were...small people. I didn't (and still don't, by choice) have children, and I had no preconceived notions about what to expect from them.
They treated me just fine; the daughter (then 9) warmed up to me quickly, glad to have another "girl" in the house. The son (then 5) didn't treat me any way other than an entity who was kind to him and made jokes about the cat (which went over quite well).
I started to make a comment on someone else's blog but I got to writing a lot and thought this might "take over" the blog so I thought I would give it its own space.
FDH told me aa while ago, something that happened right around the time of his divorce with BM.
I warn you, this is really messed up, and I still can't get my head around it,...maybe because I am a woman,... I don't know....
I got a call from BM making sure I know she is "that b*tch" and I need to step back. Because calling her out on claiming our gifts are from her makes me the bad guy. I don't like the whole I'ma bad b*tch crap. Its not cute a lady should carry herself like a lady and if you are so bad you don't have to say it. There is nothing wrong with defending yourself but when you are trying to start fights is when I see a problem. When you want to curse someone out even though you know you are in the wrong just to assert your dominance is when I see a problem.
Another reason to start getting back into a routine with the practice of my faith (regular meditation/prayer, etc) is that I think this 'blended' family shit is starting to inspire HUGE control issues with me.
Seriously, the idea was to be Glenda the good witch, but if I don't FIND a way to make more time for balancing myself during the day I'm going to sprout long red glittery nails.
Also, I cannot have long red glittery nails at work, so we have a VERY REAL concern here.
They keep going back and forth and it is driving me crazy! The hospital has been treating SD for Addison's Disease and she has responded really well to the treatment and now they are saying they are 90% sure that is what it is. They are just waiting on the blood test to come back.
.... I like the friend more than the skid........ :O
