After the coldness at home this morning, my DH sent me a text and said he just wants me to be happy. He called me a while ago and I told him that it is possible for all three of us to be happy. (me, him and SD12). I said it's gonna take some change. He asked me what I meant and I said SD12 is gonna have to get some responsibility and grow up and act her age. I told him it's not necessary for him to entertain her all the time, pick up after her, get her dressed in the mornings, start her shower water, wait on her hand and foot, etc.
Any of you that have read my blogs have seen that I kind of stress over any future skid situations that may come up. I've been blind sided so many times and screwed over that I find myself constantly thinking about certain situations that could possibly arise and try to mentally prepare myself if they ever do so I don't feel like I'm going into a situation never having given it any thought previously.
I have not dealt with this situation yet, as Dh and I don't have any kids together right now, but I'm curious as to how everyone feels about this.
If you have kid(s) with DH, or if you plan to, how do you feel about your kid(s) getting skid hand-me-downs? You know, toys that were skid's, clothes that were skid's, etc.
For me, I would not want such things. I will want our kids to have their own things. Things that skid grows out of in age can go to salvation army.
OneNighter (BM) emailed me last week to talk about the supposid custody switch. I didn't read the email. Anyway, I read it yesterday and had to share my favorite part! }:)
So, basically, OneNighter has decided that we should be friends and is trying to force us to be "one, big happy family." In her first "nice" contact with me, she said she knew we were going to be friends because she really likes me (yea, right!) and told me that SO and I should invite her over for dinner and -- the best part -- let her bring a date!
Food has always been a huge challenge with my SS5. On top of being a picky eater he also uses food as a power play and doesn't eat in order to get attention. He will often leave food to sit and get slimy/cold and then complain that he doesn't like it and ask for cookies.
Hello STers, it's been a while.
Wish I had some exciting and closure filled news from the world of Sita but I don't.
Tough time of year and little progress on a final agreement. Hard to sit in Limboland, but that's where I am today.
My DH's new Title is Entertainment Director. I was pissed last night cause DH acted like I was invisible. Whenever SD12 is with us (6 nights a week) she is right up under DH, getting right up in the middle of everything. WE can't have a conversation because she has to interupt and turn the conversation to her. I finally got up and went to our bedroom and got in bed on my laptop. At bedtime (a couple of hours later) he finally comes in bed wanting attention. I wasn't having it. I was still mad this morning. He said, "what am I supposed to do, make her go to her room at 6?"
So last summer, DH was in legal negotiations with BM for the umpteenth time. We were in the process of getting a provision removed from the visitation order that allowed BM to pick SD6 up for Church every Sunday of DH's visitation. In the process, the Judge's standard visitation order had increased summer visitation from 4 weeks to 6 weeks, so we were including that adjustment in the negotiations. As it always is in our case, BM fought the process every step of the way. We were inches away from a settlement when we were supposed to pick SD6 up for the final 2 weeks of visitation.
As I posted yesterday, DF had his uncle's funeral to attend and he made MANY attempts all weekend to get in touch with BM about switching Monday night for Tuesday night with the kids. She never responded to him.
So I just went to daycare to pick them up last night (without DF, who was out of town for the funeral). There was a HUGE part of me that wanted to NOT pick them up and see what would happen, but we both agreed that would probably hurt the kids more than teaching BM a lesson (skids would feel like no one 'wanted' them or something).
