so....this past weekend, a very close friend of the family was thrown a going away party. I attended with my ss7 and my dh was working. my dh didnt get out of work until 8:00 p.m. and showed up to the party shortly there after. The party was held at a local joint which is both a bar and restaurant. The party was in the restaurant section of the place. well, bm's ex bf was there ( we live in a very small town) and he decided to text bm and tell her that ss was there at a bar at 8:00 w/me and not my dh.

My SD got me a gift.

She called me today when she got home from school and asked me where I was. I was coming into town so I told her. She told me to come by because she got me something. I said I'm on my way! LOL!

I got there and she gave me the book "Twilight", the first of the series. I read the last two and figured I'd read the first and second when I was done and got around to it since I already saw the movies. She knew this because she loaned me the last two!

She said that the school had a book fair and she couldn't resist.

Unloving

My MIL got onto me this weekend about not showing the skids enough love. She said that the skids came to her and told her that they didn't feel loved. She said that she told my H the same thing but when I bring it up to him he kinda acts like he doesn't know what I'm talking about. I used to be able to hug them and kiss them. Something has changed though and I'd just rather not be around them and I'm not sure why. Does or has anyone else ever had this sort of problem?

Just as I thought!

DH just got out of court with SS11 BM for "Failure to Provide" Ruling? In HIS favor as he had all the documentation proving he had paid that no good!!! Did she show the judge all the FB crap that I supposedly said to her son??? Nope...another empty threat. (Because there was nothing said to the brat!) This woman is such a freaking headcase and it bound and determined to make our lives hell!!!!

Can we skip Friday this week? And Saturday? And Sunday?

It's only Monday and I'm starting to fear the upcoming weekend. I don't know if the weekends are that bad, or if I just constantly overreact. Probably a little bit of both. Nevertheless....I see a couple of "late nights at work" in my future. Or the tried and true..."I have a headache and am going to bed early".

BM out again on her weekend...

Maybe we're being overly critical and feel free to tell me if I am, but at least once a week on a night that BM has the kids (SS2 and SD4), she goes out. Does anyone else think this is ridiculous? It is a 50/50 schedule. Why does she need to go out on the nights she has the kids? Is it that hard to stay home with your children?
