I was at a chain store that sells farm equipment/tractor stuff etc. when I saw an elderly gent come in to buy a pedal cart for his grandkids.

I had to shudder b/c GG bought Prince Hygiene at the time 6 1/2 (now 8 1/2) one of those. It was in lieu of a motorized vehicle which was a no-no; especially in light of how the three skids treated the ATV that *I* bought them one xmas (and that the Behemoth spoiled as a surprise)

My husband called SS about his mother's CPS threat. There was some muffling and SS starts saying, What do I do? I don't know what to do. He was crying Sad I was crying too because I felt so bad for him. I told him to call the people at CPS and ask them what to do. The bitch is so stupid she left a voicemail we can use as proof. SS said ok and hung up. My husband and I are really upset right now. I cannot even share any of this with anyone for support. All I have is this site.

Good for nothing ILs!!!!! Aaaaargh!!!!!

As mentioned before, SD16 wants to have nothing to do with her father, me and especially not her baby sister (my DD5 mos). She's stated loud and clear to CP that she doesn't want to see us, however now that she's found out from SDs13 & 19 that we're all going to the European country where my DH's mother lives, she all of a sudden cries to her sisters that we're so mean and how much ahe wants to see us and go on holiday with us. :sick:

...parenting in crisis mode and other ramblings

I'm really starting to despise when both BM and DH tend to parent only during crises.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure that they still have their influence as parents, but don't seem to EVER do the day-to-day following up in order to ensure that their children are on the right track. Rather, they wait until things are so bad that it's near impossible to help guide them in the right direction.

BM is really trying...to dig herself a hole

Not even an hour after I posted my earlier blog about BM texting me yesterday from SD12's phone, I get a text from BM (on her own phone, lol)

The conversation reads as follows...

BM: U need to leave my name out of ur mouth especially when it comes to SD12. U need to worry about ur own kid instead of leaving a 7 year old home by himself. U also need to take care of ur husband so he don't go wondering like he has

Me: Why are you trying to start crap

BM: It's the truth. Worry about ur life not mine

Me: My life is fine. Ur the one stirring things up

the in-laws are coming next month!!.....deep breaths...

I'm very fortunate to have a wonderful mother in law to be. I absolutely love that women and with good reason. She is a sweet, supportive, giving, caring, understanding person who hates the ex-wife with all her might. (that's a bonus for me! lol) I hate to say this but I would have rather had her as a mother then the one I actually have.

Father's day - is it wrong?

I have a question about Father's Day gift giving and step children. BM claims (and I intend to check one day when I am bored and have nothing better to do but read over their divorce) that the divorce says they HAVE to get each other gifts from the kids on Mother's Day, Father's day, Birthday's and Xmas. I think it's stupid and I plan to get BF something from ME and the boys, even though BM already gave him a gift 'from the boys'. So my question is would I be crossing a line there?
