Needing pearls of wisdom and/or shared experiences!
My SD27 is getting married in May. At first she told my husband that I could come as long as I didn't create any problems (yeah - I know - I am 56 year old trouble maker).
After many couple therapy sessions I recently shared that that I realized I said I wouldn't go because I was trying to protect my husband's feelings. Our therapist responded, "I am not normally this assertive but I am compelled to be right now - your wife needs to go - she belongs by your side".
Begin vent:
Okay, so my SO had a pretty intersting convo last night with BM.
It started last Thursday night. When I got home from work I was told that FSD(6) was sick. She was running a feaver and sleeping. She continued to run a fever throughout the weekend. Nothing high enough to worry. Both my SO and I made sure that she had plenty of liqids, tylenol, rest, and tried to get her to eat.
Everytime my skids come over they have greasy hair and smell of b.o. When they are with us they always have to be reminded to shower, brush teeteh, etc. They wont even eat something without someone telling them specifics about what there is to eat etc. I have raised my kids to be very independant and this drives me nuts!! How does their mom let them go all week like that. And thats just the start, even on a nice sunny day they would rather sit inside alday, playing video games or reading, not that their is nothing wrong with reading.
Supervised...of course. :sick:
As I posted yesterday, SD17 lost her door privileges when she locked her bedroom door prior to going to school. This is a violation of a major house rule, and SD has been warned about this before, so I took the door off of the hinges. As expected, SD PISSED was when she discovered this.
So yesterday was a visit with BM. She took the kids to Mcdonalds and filled them with soda btw she knows its a rule for them not to have soda. The boys came home bouncing off the walls! Saying how awesome their visit was because their mom let them have soda. Awesome. So I start doing dishes to ignore this positive talk about this woman she is so irritating. Water starts coming into my sink. The upstairs apartment is putting spaghetti down the drain and its coming up in my sink. I turn off my water and have my SO help get the water out.
There was a girl on there that told Dr Phil that he has to find her a job. He looked at her and said "I'm not getting you a job that is not my job, I don't owe you a damn thing" I was LMAO!
That is how young people think today and the product of parents being a friend instead of a parent. Also that they put their kids so high up that they think they have to do everything for them. Which in turn make the kids think they the world owes them!
mil and sil is OFFICIALLY ON MY piss off, i don't give a shit about you list!
GG accused me the other day of throwing away his "Sleeping with the Enemy" movie, which he watches for "pointers" on how to treat a woman, but I digress.
So lately, he's acting like he doesn't trust me to file away all the school correspondence after he reads it. He's squirreling it away somewhere so I don't get my evil stepmother mits on it.
HA!
Booze taking up all the space in the frig. Now granted, I have a LARGE FRENCH DOOR FRIG w/ icemaker and water on the outside (one of things that GG is good for; he can hook up stuff like that in a blink of an eye)
But these wine boxes and cans of beer take up every goddam crevice in the frig! I cook usually for most of the week on the weekends, freezing and refrigerating the rest.
His b-day is coming up so I"m buying him his personal frig that he can stuff his booze into. One less aggrevation for me until the house is finished.
