Permission to hit BM granted.... :)

lynneranne's picture

My BF said last night after BM made a comment that if she were to touch him, make a move on him, or do anything else I am allowed to knock her ass out. Smile That makes me feel better... I think she would have to like try to kiss him or something before I take it that far, but I feel a little more powerful.

What?? Do I have a giant booger hanging out of my nose or something???

Truelight made a good dinner. Just a simple soup and crackers, but really good and filling. So, I'm sitting there, and I notice that Starr, KittyCat and Sheldon are all staring at me practically throughout the entire dinner. It's not unusual for Starr (my BD9) because that's what she does, and I'm used to it. I look at them, and they look away. Okay, I know I was a bit of a bitch yesterday, but I'm like that sometimes, and they know when to expect it because I'll usually give them a PMS warning, but I can't think of anything I've done today.

I think I'm losing my mind too!!!!

I recently married a man with 3 sons, ages now are 8, 10, 13. I thought I knew of the emotional baggage surrounding the BM. Long story short....she had an affair with the neighbor, separated from my now husband and then 2 weeks prior to the second custody hearing she killed herself. My husband had full custody prior to. The children are unaware of how she died. All they know is that "mommy got sick and died". There were allegations of neglect from her own parents, who called CPS on her after leaving them home alone when they were 5, 7, and 10. They tried to make their own dinner.

My husband has something attached to his ass....oh wait thats his son...

Seriously...I may joke about this but it really annoys the hell out of me. My DH can not even walk out of the room without one or both, going where is daddy and go hunt him down. They can be in the middle of playing or watching a movie and if they noticing him missing, they ask me and than go hunt him down and ask him what he's doing and a million questions. The worst is when I'm cooking dinner and my kitchen isnt very big and he will come and ask to help and I'll have him set the table and hear the both come and just stand there. Like hello, I'm cooking move out of the way!!

Cell phones in kids hands = laziness and just plain sucks!

My 17yr SS has been warned a few times about his texting habit, but daddy keeps barking a threat with no actual follow through. 2 billing cycles ago the damn kid had 10,208 text messages. Let me tell you something I do not care if you have unlimited text messaging there is no reason for that absurd, ridiculous amount! Are you texting 1 fricken letter/number at a time? Any who, it wasn't just the amount, but it was the fact it occurred during school, from start to finish! One after the other, minute for minute and in some 2-3 in a minute. WHAT THE HELL!

WOW. So this is what it feels like!!!...

I've done it. I can't believe I did it... But thank God I did!!

I have emotionally disconnected myself from SS. I care about him but only to a certain extent. I will talk to him and help him with things if he asks. But when he acts up or acts inconsiderate or disrespectful, I just shrug my shoulders and let FH deal with it... I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!!

I literally just walk away or turn up my television and tune it out.

OT: Mind Blowing Quantum Physics

StepMadre's picture

Holy Heck! A friend just lent me the follow up movie to "What the Bleep Do We Know?" called, "What the Bleep? Down the Rabbit Hole" and it is something that everyone should watch. It's a lay person-friendly movie about our world from the Quantum Physics perspective. It's amazing and life changing and will change your view of the world forever. I found it to be completely fascinating and really applicable to my relationship with my skids and my anger and frustration with my BM.

EXTREMELY sticky situation..or maybe not?

I just learned the BM's live-in boyfriend has cheated on her. (talk about karma). This is the man SHE cheated on BF with. I always thought I'd be gloating that she "got what she deserved" if I ever leaned of this information. I mean, BM had it made with a well-educated, well-paid man and she chose to leave him for a bartender/cook (not judging the profession at all) that hasn't been able to hold a steady job in the last 3 years. Instead, I am VERY VERY close to the person that was with BM's boyfriend.
