We’re having a cook out at my grandmother’s this afternoon. This was not a skid weekend, so they won’t be attending. I can’t tell you how nice it is not to have to worry about them (mainly SS6) disrespecting my family. The last time that I took SS6 around my parents, he told my mom that he “didn’t like her”. Mind you, my mom has done nothing but be good to those kids. My mom told him that he needed to put her food back (he had helped himself to a bag of chips) since he didn’t like her. LOL
Let me just say I F**KING hate being a SM!!!! It sucks the big one......
This weekend we agreed to let DH's kid have a friend over for the weekend. DH didn't really want to but I pointed out we had no real plans. Also DH agreed to let her go shopping this weekend and she wanted to bring a friend with her. So....MY IDEA #1.
Oh, so quiet... SD12 went to spend the summer with her BM. It has been a week already, but I dont miss her at all. None if the tension that was here for months at a time. Enjoying the time with my DH, trying not to let petty things ruin the binding time. Agreed to allow my ex to have my BS5, one more night during the week over the summer, we live in the same town, hoping that will give us more time. BS5, sees his BD on weekends, so he will be gone friday, sat and Sunday nights, maybe.
Would like to say SD13 has changed but i think luicfer has more chance of iceskating to work.
Speaking of work i have managed to get a really good job in a international accounting firm which in todays current job market im really impressed about, managed to arrange childcare etc all by my self as Fdh buggered off on a Stag weekend to ogle naked women as they do :sick:
Long story short - Dh has primary custody of SD16 since BM moved 800 miles away, 6 years ago. SD goes to see maternal grandmother while she is here, through us as BM is 800 miles away and we are 10 or so from grandmom. Grandmom has always been active in SD life & they are close. Grandmom and I have always gotten along fairly well; DH does not like maternal grandmom.
Well, as of Friday, the bm has decided to stop talking to my SO.
She will not answer the phone if he calls for his daughter. She makes her bf answer.
If she has anything to tell my SO about the SD, she will get her bf to call, and play secretary.
When we had SD this past weekend, every time she called her mom using SO's cell, the bf would answer, not the bm.
Ummm....ok....I am kinda in the middle about this one.
OK - need some advice. My 16 year old stepdaughter just got her license and her BM wants to spend 10K on a 2005 car for her. We have my daughter (who is away at college) car sitting in our garage for her to use on the 8 days a month she is here and so we decided not to contribute towards her moms car. Now my SD is upset that she doesn't get to take a car back and forth to and from each house. My husband initially agreed to have her drive the car while here but now is saying she should have one car to drive.
What do other parents of divorce do out there?
Doesn't this kid ever want to sleep?? No bed time means up all not and not even an hour of relaxation before bed for me.... No wonder I want to snap all the time.... I feel suffocated by their constant taking over everything.... Can't even watch a television show without them taking things over. I just want to cry out of frustration. I just want some sort of downtime without them on the weekends. They are just to much to be around all the time. I can't even get up out of my seat because as soon as I do they take that over to.... His kids are ruining our relationship.
I have been with my husband for 4.5 years, and married for 2. We live on the east coast, and he has two teenage step kids that live on the west coast. When I first met him this did not phase me at all - oh how naive I was! A little information on the BM - She is an ex-stripper, who now cleans houses naked for a living. She is a meth addict, and has done jail and prison time for both drug usage, and identity theft. Her many victims of ID theft include my husband, and her two kids.
It's been such a tireing weekend what should b my 3 days to relax from a full-time job just ends up being complete chaos from the time I get out of work till I go to bed the last day of the weekend. These kids are out of control. No matter how much time I spend with ss10 how many games we play, or one on one time it's never enough. Everythings a 20 min argument weather it's put your shoes on, take a shower or we have to go in for the night.... I can't take the whining and arguing. He wants to take over everything.
