As most of you know SD21 sent me some very hateful text earlier in the year. SInce that time, I have not spoken to her. She has been in the same room at family functions but thats it. Every Christmas she comes home and wakes up christmas morning with my other SD16 and my two girls.

Ok getting fed up

I know I do not post many blogs on here but this one just has to be put out there. I am so sick of when people ask for advice on how to handle a situation they are told to leave and never look back. In my opinion if they did not ask if they should leave or not, don't say it. Most of us on here are not looking for someone to tell us to leave who we are with. We are looking for kind words, helpful advice to handle it and be able to move forward. This whole leave his sorry ass mentality is nuts and has people taking steps backwards.

Christmas visit ...

In late October, I posted that DH have given SD20 her Christmas present early. Very early. She received $100 in gift certificates, along with $80 for a prescription that we paid for her. She was supposed to pay it back. Since she never did, I had considered that the remainder of her Christmas loot. However, I (personally) would feel like a heel if she received nothing at Christmastime. We bought her a very nice bracelet, one that I myself would love to have. This goes against my previous blog stating that 'she's done for Christmas'. But I had to do SOMETHING.

I love my husband but....

HELP!! I'm so tired of my step sons attitude, and the fact my husband does not seem to care about the fact his son is allowed to hold our home under this grip of tension, dear daddy wont even set any boundries for him, but holds my daughters 7 & 14 to extreem standards. My poor friends just cant understand. Im holding out hope my SS will move out, he's flunking all grades in school, rebeling, on anti depressants and anxiety drugs, NOTHING IS WORKING!

Update: Stepdaughter!!!!

Last night when I got home from work I came into the house telling my SD that I hadn't said much to her about her recent pics on her phone but that I wasn't going to stand for it. I told her that she is grounded from tv, radio, any form of technology/electronic. That what she did was wrong and that she better realize that she's going to have to deal with the concequenses of her actions.

I left skids a little "to do" list on the bathroom mirror with a post-it to try to teach them some kind of responsibility!

Does anyone else leave notes for the skids at night? I'm trying something different...so I left a note on a heart shaped post-it stuck on their bathroom mirror that said "Jane & Jack, please make sure that you pick everything up in your room and bathroom...also make sure you have everything packed up that you want to take to your mom's by the front door in the morning."
