Just mad

MsPerception's picture

OK now I just plain mad, no livid. VENTING here bfore I just rip somebody's everloving head clean off!!! Breathe,1,2,3 screw it that's far enouhg. I turn the big 40 tomorrow-yay I survived this long-woohoo. My sister and mothr are up to something for my birthday this weekend-go girls!! In the mean time, my daughter won tickets for me to a comedy show. The reservations were originally for tonite but with bf's schedule I didn't even ask him to go (tired of the rejection-my hours, don't feel like it, yada yada). So, I asked my sister.

Probably wrong but need to vent anyway

DH and I met with the counselor that was referred to us for SD7. She asked us all about SD7, each of our relationships with her, what's going on at home, etc. The minute the counselor started asking questions specifically to me I knew it was over. I used to have a fine relationship with SD7 until she started pulling all her crap of ignoring me, not listening, avoiding me, talking to her dad like I don't exist, the list goes on. So now of course I want pretty much nothing to do with her. I could only keep trying and be rejected for so long.

Just a thought related to my blog yesterday...

You know, I was thinking...I have TWO kids that I have FULL physical custody of...why is it that everything is seen and life is lived on my BF's side through the filter of SD? I'm just not comfortable with that and cannot live my life that way.

Is it because she is an only child? I guess other men must act that way even if they have more than one child.

I just don't get it. My kids are my top priority and I adore them but my life isn't lived in relation to them, am I making sense? I don't even know how to explain it. I don't have a preoccupation with my children.

Oh, yeah... the letter

BM makes this big deal about coming to SS15 ball game tonight, right? She gives him a letter before the game that tells him she's not coming for any more games, or giving him anything- presents, money, items for school- anything until he can learn to grow up and make an effort to be nice to her and call and visit...

Not that I see that's really motivation for him to visit her... The dang Xbox that causes fights in our house is her's. If she really wants him to visit her, she should have insisted on taking that back...

BM doesn't get it... who's the "real" mother?

DH told her not to contact me again. She came to town for SS15 ballgame tonight. She brought SD17 back home after only watching like half a game... (She made this big deal about watching him play, and then didn't even stay...) She came in with SD to try on some clothes they bought before the game. (Yes- we let BM in the house. I'll post about that another time...)

Too Funny! (Supernanny)

Ok, I had to post this. About 3 months ago after a fight about the kids and watching an episode of Supernanny, I went on their website and it had an area where you sign up if you wuold like to be considered for the show. I did and wrote alot of the things that bother me about the kids and told them that they didn't portray enough blended families. Anyway forgot about it.

Tell me how to deal with a BM that undermines the authority in your home

SS13 has been grounded for poor grades. We took away his cell phone. BM apparently buys him a cell(go phone) this past weekend and he sneaks it into our house. Mind you SS lives full time with DH and me. My Biodaughter brought it to my attention tonight that SS has a cell. I took it away. Bad grades, no phone. SD11 says SS13 has that phone from my BM so he can have his privacy. What I'm pissed about is the fact that SS13 knew that he was grounded and BM knew we took his(the one we pay for) cell away for poor grades.
