OH got stuck in horrendous traffic coming home from work yesterday, so I got a call asking if I could go pick SS10 up from his after school club as BM was at college. Wasn't particularly thrilled by this, but trotted round to get him & it meant we actually had a good 30 minutes of one-to-one time.
I am estranged from my sister, JK. We never got along growing up. She has personal issues and doesn't own up to past mistakes she's made in her life. She blames everyone else by herself. She constantly digs up the past and holds it against the family. No one in our family gets along with her and just feel better off with her out of our lives...less stress that way.
I got a message on my cell phone today from her. She told me that our mom called her @ work to ask if she would call me to let me know my mom's in the hospital.
So BM was telling DH on Sunday when we dropped of SS that SS had to go to the optometrist. I mentioned, "I don't think it's been a full 2 years."
Hubby's insurance covers an eye exam but only every 2 years. When we took SS, he was given a prescription, and we got him 2 pair of glasses.
Well, we gave one pair to her, and we kept the other pair. She managed to LOSE the first pair about a month after we gave them to her. She blames it on US, even though SHE had control over them. How she figures THAT one is beyond me.
Ok, it's getting worse and worse with the kids (SS 7, SD 6). They cannot make it though the night at our house without waking up and crying because they 'miss mommy.' I already had to unhook all the phones in the house when they come over so they won't get up at 2am and call her. She sees that as a victory in her book and an opportunity to come down on BF for being such a horrible parent.
As you can see from my prior blogs, my SS 35 has not spoken to my husband or myself other than to have huge adult temper tantrums since my husband's mother died two years ago. My SD 33 has refused to talk to us and let husband see his grandchildren since I did not invite her 2 children to go to the show with me, my visiting sister, my visiting neice, and my two DDs last Christmas. She has thrown several huge adult temper tantrums since this time - but I don't consider that communication just yelling and cursing on her part.
My DH has a seven year old son from a previous marriage. Anyways, DH is such a jerk! WAnts me as a babysitter, gets mad if i dont take SS with me every where. Why would i need to? He's not my kid. Last weekend i got up early to go for a walk, SS was awake and told him where i was going and not to open the door for anyone. His dad was asleep in the other room. Well when i came back, DH was pissed off because i didn't take SS with me. He said i was the worst parent ever, i'm heartless and I should never do that to his Son again. I'm confused. What the hell was that about?
bm has been watching ss because she cant afford day care, so on our days, dh has to see her fat face twice and ss is spending almost every day with bm. dh and i decided not to press the issue of child care because ss seemed to be acting fine, and we could use the extra 250 a month rather than spending it on child care....so we thought great, bm is a free baby sitter...well as we all know, NOTHING is free.
So my high school sweet heart and I recently got married in N.C. Outer Banks, he has a daughter (8yrs) with his ex named Jen. I absolutley can not stand her. Anyway, we got back from our vacation/wedding August 22,2009 (Sat), the following Monday Joe (my husband) gets a phone call that she's taking him back for more child support because her and her fiance broke up and she can't afford to pay the bills by herself. So I quote her,"well now that your married you can afford to pay more child support".....at that moment, I wanted to reach through the phone and rip her throat out!
Things have been quite until lately. You can see past comments for more info but DH & I were awarded custody in August of SS16 and SD8. First off, (pat my back) SD8 made honor roll and perfect attendance for the 1st time ever!! She failed kindergarten and almost failed 1st grade. In 3 months with us she has gone from failing to honor roll. Good for her!! Wonder what BM thinks about that? I went to lunch the other day with SD and one of the parents started telling me how BM and the cafeteria coordinator do not like each other.
Well we had the court trial for the 2 contempt charges and ... (drum roll please) she lied under oath stating we agreed to not have the kids on those dates. Even though we had text messages and testimony to say different it turned into a big he said/she said fiasco. The judge dismissed the contempt charges, however he did say he may not be so nice next time (to BM) thanks for the bone your honor!
