I am still wrapping. I like to take my time and do one at a time through out the season. I hate to have a pile on christmas eve and stay up way too late. This way I do the stockings only on the eve and everything else is done except to put out santa gifts. I also do the ribbon bows, I love to wrap and make them look very pretty. I reuse everything from year to year and as it wears out I replace. And I make my bows different then most people, I make a bow and keep tieing till I get as many loops as I want and it is pretty.
So what does everyone else do?
AS I said before all three boys have their own cell phones.
Yesterday we were on our way to a birthday party with all the kids. BM texted dh to have ss11 call her. Dh told ss11 he needs to call his mom and asked why she didn't call him herself. SS11 said he has his phone turned off. Dh asked why and the other boys said they turn theirs off too as they got tired of her calling and texting all the time. I asked how long had they been doing that. They said for a few months.
I was wondering why their phones were so quite lately. LOL I just think it is too funny.
Just wanted to share with all of you, my ST friends, a SMALL but important story about my FDH & how he is SLOWLY starting to "clue fskids in" about the MASSIVE CS$$ he pays BM/his exW. For those of you that don't know this background, my FDH pays over $1600/month (plus 90% of all "extras" and unreimbursed medical/dental expenses) for 2 kids that we share true 50/50 joint physical & legal custoday with his exW/BM!!
So, my little devil of a SS is ruining everything about my pregnancy. It's my first child and I don't get to have any of those special moments with my husband. He ruined my wedding and now he's hooked his claws into this and making it a shitty experience. He lives with us fulltime. I wish he didn't. I cannot stand the little boy. Don't even want to be around him. I am honestly considering leaving my husband because of how much I dislike his kid.
Well, the CS clock just stopped and SS is now 18! The last few weeks SS has been all about getting a tattoo on his birthday. And his sister is bragging about taking him!
This kid has crashed a vehicle (DUI), been to court numerous times, can never save enough to come see his dad (we go there a couple times a year), etc. And he needs musical equipment that's quite pricey. (always breaking things stupidly)
So just curious what the latest reality show lifestyle decision costs.
And please, if you have tattoos, great, this is more about the choices the kid makes.
SD14 left her retainer at our house yesterday. DH already took her back home (she lives an hour away). She calls him around 9pm asking him to bring retainer to her bc if he didn't....get this...all of her teeth will fall out of her mouth!!
He had to tell her 3 times "NO".
When...when..when will this end?
Just curious what other people think about adult children (I am mainly talking about children 30+ years old) living at home with one or more children of their own after a divorce. Do you think it is appropriate for their parent/s to let their kids live at home for only a set period of time (say six months -- to get back on their feet) or for an indefinite amount of time.
I dont have a child of my own. My bf does.
Yesterday was some commercial about babyformula on tv. He started conversation about how he has seen some program on tv and how those babyformulas are almost like breastmilk. He then proceeded to say how his son was using -such and such- brand. How he liked -such and such- baby can food (not sure how they are called, you know those you buy with veggies, fruits, meat etc).
He knows i want a child of my own.
Why would it bother me what they were doing to their child? Why would it bother me what their child liked?
My ss18 knows he is his mother's child. I am so pissed off right now and I dont know where to start...If anyone read my blog earlier I was talking about how my ss bm has been taken my husband back and forth to court for more money when he is already paying her $304 every 2weeks and on top of that the court has order him to pay 48% of his college tuiton which is $42,000 a year.
My in-laws live way across the country from me, the nephews are grown and doing great things in other parts of the world. I've only met them once but we seemed to get along and I assumed they would share the same values and sense of humour my DH does.... boy was I wrong.
I really am begining to believe Facebook bad! I recently commented on my sister-in-law's picture of her grandkids and my nephew.
