I have a feeling that I might be visiting this site off and on for.. hmm.. years maybe? So, i should probably get this blog going.

Quick summary:
Dating a 31yo divorced guy who has a daughter. BM is a "socially nice" person with a TON of insecurity issues, self esteem issues, family issues and so forth. Meaning, if you were to meet her she would be really sweet and nice to you but that doesn't mean she isn't stabbing you behind your back.

Please Give Me Some Perspective--Should I Be Mad?

My BF seems to think I'm really overreacting to this, but it's bothering me A LOT.

If you read my previous post, it mentions that he's been going to the local bar a lot. Well, we argued about that a bit, but he seemed to be making an effort to come home when he says he would, so I felt better about it and moved on. I should mention that I really, really don't like to be worrying about issues like this. It brings me down to an awful level, so I like to resolve things and move on.

O/T: Quit jerking us around already!!!!!!

So FDH goes into the hospital today to pre-register or whatever for his surgery that's supposed to be on Monday. Registration has no information for him, so send him up to the GI clinic to figure out what's going on. Turns out the surgeon who is supposed to perform his surgery won't even be in town; in fact he's flying out *that* morning at 1 am! However, between the time when his surgery got moved up yesterday and then cancelled today, the original June 6th date is no longer an option - the ER for that date/time has already been re-scheduled for someone else. Freakin' seriously!!!!!!!!

BM held my son yesterday at daycare....barf!

Since my baby (11 weeks) started going to the same daycare as the skids, they see me every day when I pick him up. They used to run and hug me when they would see me, because they knew that I was just there to pick THEM up, but now I'm kind of old news. They say "Hi!" but then they ask, "Are we going with you or is mommy coming?" So anyway, they don't run and hug me really anymore, but I always give them atleast a little pat on the head or shoulders while they're playing before I grab my son.

I feel like I'm drowning!

So much to say and dont know where to start. I met my husband 4 years ago after his then wife had left him. It was just suppose to be a casual thing but we both started to fall for each other. Stupidly I moved out of my apt to with him to his moms house. I was still a single gurl in my mind and had no idea what it meant to be with someone with kids. His mom took care of his kids, so everything seemed perfect. Exept his ex was still acting like he was hers. Oh some of his history...he met her in middle school and got her pregnant.

TGIF!

Smile

As I read some entries here today I decided to check the current Texas laws, as I do all the time...well, TODAY the governor signed a bill into law and effective IMMEDIATELY if you are a dad paying CS for kids that are NOT yours, it doesn't matter what you signed, if you were married or not...you get a DNA test, request CS be stopped and that is IT!!! Your nightmare is over. I am so happy some people here will finally get this nightmare over with.

O/T: Surgery moved up

doll faced sm's picture

FDH went in for another apt. today and has apparently lost another 10 lb.s. As a result, his surgery which was scheduled for 6/6 has been moved up . . . to this Monday. Now, as opposed to still being in a state of recovery when the baby comes, he'll still be in a state of recovery (read: hopped up on pain killers) while he's in a court room, standing in front of a judge, trying to convince said judge that he should have joint custody of FSS and that child support should be lowered. Eiyeiyeiy . . .

So tired of this!

Every time DH has visitation with Skids he comes home with ringworms an/or a cold....I am so tired of sterilizing and bleaching every other weekend. Has anyone else experienced this madness?

With all the 100's of trips to the doctor's you'd think they'd be free of sickness and disease!
