Still alive. Yep.
I have a question, and even lengthy answers are welcome:
How does one disengage? And because I assume that means "just stop doing the crap I do for someone who sh*ts on me and my biokids and my DH and everyone in the world even within a mile radius".....how do I do it when, and I am serious here, SD WON'T LET ME?
I am brand new here. But i need to vent and just looking for an outlet and hopefully advice. I have been married for five years and we have a 4 yr old son together. I have two daughters from my first marriage ages 16 and 14. My 16 year old is very responsible, has a prt time job, and takes AP classes in high school. Anything i need done she is my go to girl. My 14 year old struggles a bit in school but still is a good kid and usually no lip nor back talk. I have been divorced from their father for eight years before i remarried. i raised my girls to be very independent and responsible.
Most of my posts about SD10 have been pretty harsh. I wanted to record for posterity (lol for my selfish reasons) a good story. I guess you could say I wanted to share.
The other day, we were dropping off BDs10 and 8 of mine and we were on the way back. I had SS12 and SD10 with me. I don't remember how it came up, but SD10 said, "I am upset with Mommy"
SS12, "SD10, What is up?"
I was not going to get involved unless I had to.
SD10, "She didn't give me a birthday party because we had to go to court"
The last time we had the skids they were intolerable brats, and my DH was well aware that I was completely over them and couldn't take them for one more minute.
They are both having sporting events next weekend and I have no interest in attending, not because they are brats, but because I really, really, really, don't like it. Seriously, I would rather have a tooth pulled without novocain than attend a sporting event, any event, not just the bratty skids. BTW this would be 7+ hours of sports/driving.
BM called FH a little while ago and asked if we could keep skids this weekend. FH told her that we have a race to go to and we're leaving Friday night and won't be back until Sunday night. It's BM's weekend and it would have made the 4th weekend in a row. Now, even my BM has never attempted this before...hmmmmmmmmm I wonder if BM is just trying to find out what we're doing every weekend. Could this be true? Could she be calling just to see what plans we've made? Why would anyone in their right mind do this? Geez..........I can't predict insanity.
Err, I am just so angry and depressed lately. I was suppose to be taking SD14, just her and I, for an outing this weekend, but now I don't think that is going to happen. Why? Well, if you read my blog yesterday, you will know. SD16 needs over $100 for school because she had to switch classes. My thought is... Oh well, but I know DH will be mad if we still go. I don't care though, that girl ruins EVERYTHING! I am so sick of it. To be honest it is only her fault to a degree. If DH would stop tip toeing around her a$$ and act like a parent (OR BM!) she would not be this way.
These horoscopes are meant to be funny and are taken from a spoof newspaper that I get every week.
So if they offend you then just ignore it please I don't wanna hear it, I happen to like laughing at stuff like this sometimes.
Aries: You may not have a lot of money, but you still believe yourself to be rich in many ways. This isn't surprising considering the cost of a prper education these days.
I am saying goodbye to you all, to my SO, and to the two boys that once called me dad. I am letting go of a lot. Most of all, I am letting go of my best friend. I say, 'If you love someone let them go, if they come back they are yours' , type mentality I have now. I want to see her act, her struggle, her TRY!! With her or without her I will be fine, I just preferred with her as the path I wanted to travel.
I love you Heather, I always will, forever
A Sun-Saturn conjunction in your 10th House of Career requires you to work extra hard today, but with shifty Uranus involved, things won't turn out as you expect. A surprising event at home can be the catalyst that starts a chain reaction and releases all kinds of emotions around you. But this doesn't have to be your battle. Carefully creating boundaries and then respecting them can help you move through this hard time with lovely grace.
Great - what the hell is gonna happen next?
Oh well, at least I will be dealing with it while having "lovely grace."
I am very excited to read other accounts and experiences from all of you guys. Just to know that there are other individuals out there who seem to be feeling the same things I am is wonderful. I'm actually not even a stepmom yet, but my fiance and i are planning to marry on halloween, so it's right around the corner. It has been a long and difficult journey for me...though I'm certain it has been for not only my fiance, but his daughter as well.
