Most of you know I ranted the other day about a friend that is always whining on FB and made a big deal of a 20 minute procedure being a four hour surgery.
Yesterday she posted that she was still in immense pain from her surgery and could barely move.
Today she posted that she was playing in the pool and enjoying some much needed mommy daughter time, swimming and having fun in the sun.
ROTLFMAO!!!! Yesterday she could hardly move and was in immense pain and today she feels great. I resisted the urge to comment on the miraculous turnaround.
I'm literally at me wits end! I can do no right with this child! I have done everything in my power to make her feel welcome, included, special and loved since the day I met her and she can't stand me and I don't think anything I ever do is going to change that. She has even turned my 14 year old daughter, who absolutely idolizes her, against me.
I had some lovely vines growing along the side of my house. My mom got in a mood yesterday and came over and ripped them all down. 
(Her reasoning is that they were growing into my roof... I have no idea why she didn't call me and tell me they needed to be trimmed.)
As I mentioned in another post there is a lot so I'll bullet point
- Also as I mentioned in another blog, FDH made a promise to FSS10 that every other year, starting NEXT year we will go on a week long vacation where we can "really go somewhere" 1. he said this without consulting me 2. DOES HE WANT TO MARRY ME? WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE PLANNING FOR A WEDDING
Just in case you were wondering how my day has been. It ls wonderful.
SD8 just peed in the sand box. Wtf. Why am I not surprised.
Our meeting went quite well. He gave the kids money and had them order themselves and sit at their own table. We got right to business with summer activity schedules, remaining payments, pending vacations and residual paperwork. We discussed what worked this last school year, what parts were challenging for each household and what I'd be working on with each child during the summer and he even proposed a new possible schedule for next school year.
SS10 and SS5 keep yelling back and forth and SS10 has a bad attitude. He told SS5 he would punch him if he keeps looking at him. DH jumped in and told them to knock it off in a stern voice. That is not even why I'm pissed because ten minutes later SS sits besides me whiles I'm playing with baby and says "can you make that ugly baby stop looking at me". I sent him to his room to cool the attitude and learn some respect. He keeps just walking out of his room and ignoring DH and I. What can we do short of pyschially putting him in his room?
Going to court in the morning. Incubator wants visitation and we are going after CS for those who don't remember.
DH hasn't done a damn thing to prepare. I am scrambling to get a few things together just so we have something to give the judge.
I have proof of childcare costs
Health insurance bill
DH pay stubs
HER arrest record for the last 12 months.
What else should I print/get a hold of real fast before I leave work???
So many of our SKs remind me of him. They blow their money. Others act out. Many are rude. Many do lots of stupid things.
The Prodigal Son got welcomed back with open arms by his father. I think many (not all) fathers on this site would do the same as they love their kids unconditionally. No matter how badly they screwed up. I think many of us (not all) would welcome our kids back the same way that father did, no matter how badly they screwed up.
So where does that, in your opinion, leave us SPs?
Well, SS is not getting kicked out of the military. At least not right now. THANK YOU LORD!
He is on some type of disciplinary action. (2nd since he has been in) Basically sounds like he is grounded for a few weeks. But the military must ground people like my DH and BM did, because it does not seemed to have slowed SS down much. He sure was at a concert the other night.
Oh well....I just keep fingers crossed that he does not finally find that straw that breaks the camels back! Hopefully he has a long, loooong career with the military.
