It is now three days until SD goes to BM for Thanksgiving for 9 BLISSFUL DAYS, so that is 72 hours, minus 8 hours of school x 3 days-24hours and 9 hours of sleep x three nights -27 hours. 72-24-27= 21 hours I have to see, smell and hear her. Can I make it? I hope so!
I said to my husband the other day: "Our marriage has nowhere to go but up. There's nothing else that could happen to us right now that could make this situation any worse." I was wrong!!
So, I have three stepsons: SS15 from DH's first relationship. SS8 and SS4 from DH's second relationship. I am, however, his first wife.
My skids can be a major pain in my butt, but every once in a while they'll do something to validate what I'm doing. Today my SD13 came home with a library book of Dr. Suess stories to read to the babies. She hates to read, so it's really a big deal to me. She's sitting on the floor right now with one in her lap and reading aloud to them. She's stumbling over the words, but it means so much to me that she's trying.
I have two son's from a previous relationship as does my partner. I have a good relationship with my partners 19 year old son and a close and loving relationship with his youngest whom is now 7. my partner has no relationship with my eldest son whom is 11 and subsequently now lives with his father as they admittedly hate each other and my youngest whom is 9 has barely any relationship with my partner, all be it the occasional 'hello'...'goodnight'...My partner is , however a wonderful and extremely dedicated and devoted father to his children.
Okay status updated, Bio-mom SAYS she is not upset that we have baby on the way. However she is still not letting kids come over. She says the reason for this is she is concerned for the safety of her children. :? Her excuse is because her oldest stole my daughter diary, and Bio-mom ripped out pages of MY DAUGHTERS diary claiming it said that she was going to kill her oldest, what ever... She won’t show these pages to either of us because she said that she is going to keep them if she ever has to take up to court (wtfe)...
I came home last night to find a cutesy little grocery list from SD.
Of course she lists all her favorite junk foods that mommy lets her have at her house.At my house,we do not eat frozen chicken tenders.I am so sorry.I'm no health nut but I have to draw the line somewhere.
I take the list to DH and he of course says Oh she didn't make that to be condescending like you're her housemaid getting her groceries,she meant to give that to me bc i asked her to write out what she wants to eat while she's here this weekend.
First, I am so glad I found this site and to know that others have the same issues that I am encountering.
I am so sick of dh deferring to the kids every time I ask him to make a decision.
Me: "Where are we going for dinner tonight?"
DH: "Hey kids, where do you want to go for dinner?"
Kids: "McDonalds!"
Me: "Let's do what you want to do today DH."
DH: "Hey kids what do you want to do today?"
Kids: "McDonalds!"
I have posted a blog here I believe 2 years ago in desperation and willing to go out. I never got the courage and the strength to do it. It amazes me how many women like me intelligent - finishing up my Ph.D degree, beautiful, funny and willing to live and laugh turn into depressed and deprived from happiness women only 3 and a half years after starting a relationship with a man with two different children from two different mothers. I fought a battle that I am tired of fighting .
Ok, my 23 yr old stepson is about to get to me and he doesnt even live with us. He is wanting to quit college for the second time and go to work. I do not have a problem with that if that is what he is wanting to do, but for 6 months my husbands ex had been letting his girlfriend shack up with him.
The only reason he is wanting to quit school is so he can get a full time job so he can move out from under the momma and play house with the girlfriend.
