If you'll remember, the Wookie told my DH that under no circumstances am I to touch SD9's hair. In my head, I usually flip her the bird as I'm styling SD9's hair anyway.
However, today was picture day at school. So in order not to "get caught," I let SD9 go to school with unkepmt hair. We don't buy school pictures anyway. We usually take very good pictures ourselves in front of our tree in the front yard. But BM buys every single school picture the kids have ever had.
I had a VERY interesting talk yesterday with my husband's stepmother. Apparently, she did notice SD9's behavior over the weekend & is not at all impressed. She said EXACTLY the same things I've been saying & agrees that my husband desperately needs to stand up to BM -- even if that means putting SD9 in an awkward position (BM will tell her everything & use her as a bargaining chip). He's giving BM her way now & look how SD9 is acting.
SD16 supposed to be at BM over weekend. Get call Saturday afternoon, BM and SD got into fight, BM ended up calling cops b/c she felt threatened. DH goes to p/up SD, but charges are only dropped if SD agrees to come home and follow rules. She claims she will. Well, low and behold, she threatens to run, we call cops two more times over weekend (does run away on Sunday). All over SD BF. SD is out of control, BM can't handle her in these situations, so it is up to us to "fix her" before she can go see BM again.
Are you F**cking kidding me!!!!!!! It is a tasteful one I guess. on the inside of her wrist, chinese symbols that means 'chance' her 4 yo brothers name. she has been wearing braclets, you know the kind KIDS wear, friendship braclets, woven ones. Anyways, what kind of mother takes her 15 year old daughter to get a tatoo on her wrist, a most obvious place, that will be with her the rest of her life! I am beside myself. without words.
So, My DH and I were at the grand daughter's bithday party this evening (Lazy SD Princess 25's Daughter who also lives with us). So the kid gets two of the "Disney Princess" Barbies (Cinderella and Aurora). Well, I couldn't help myself, out came the comment to my 3 adult Step Daughter Princesses "Matel should come out with a line of Disney Wicked Step Mother Barbies". Well, the Lazy SD Princesses informed me that those dolls just wouldn't sell and would be completely inappropriate.
Inappropriate?
Wouldn't sell?
It was a new doctor for me and I really really liked her. She actually listened to me and talked to me like a human instead of a specimen. After all my talking and some tearing up, here's the conclusion of my visit: She said I have anxiety (I don't think anyone here would be shocked with that diagnosis) and she put me on Lexapro. I have a lot of irrational fears stemming from medical issues in my family. I also told her about the situation with the skids and how they were now living with us full time. She said, "that can feel like you are in hell" lmao.
Do any of have stepkids with different visitation schedules. FH and I don't know that SD11 really wants to be with us 50% of the time like court ordered. Have any of you made one child have a permanent living arrangement and the other kid keep a 50% joint custody living arrangement?
OMG the insanity never ends. I opened my mailbox today with an oh so lovely letter from DSS adressed to FH & Mumzy - no last name for me - oh wait that's because she doesn't know it. The charge? Physical neglect/Lack of supervision? Seriously? When they are here FH and I + my Bio's are together 24/7. Whatever. Guess we'll have in interview this week where FH can lose a day of pay to deal with this. BTW I am a SAHM - lack of supervision is kinda hard aint it?
BM is not in a relationship right now so that makes her NOT a lesbian AGAIN. I got word that BM was saved 2 weeks ago. (of course at her fathers church where I would not cross the threshold because it may burst into flames at any moment!) }:)
My DH just recently conducted a business transaction for my adult SD 32 and her husband 36 that saved them over 6k. Not only did my DH's Adult SD 32 not thank him for saving her all of that money, she has yet to even call him since he volunteered to do this! Although she has been mostly estranged from us since she made a fool of herself last winter (see earlier posts for this tantrum description and her resultant emotional blackmail of us) I would have thought that him still offering to do this for her and saving her thousands should warrant at least a polite thank you!
