So BM discovered that BF and I were finding out yesterday what the baby is. She sent me an email about it, and I responded thanking her for the good luck wishes and asking her to please not tell SS because BF has not gotten to tell him about either one of our pregnancies yet and he really wants to tell SS himself what this baby is. I didn't blame her for telling SS, though she has done so in both instances so I'm sure she knew what I meant.
These survey questions from Men's Health is part of one of my classes, and I thought I'd share some of it with ya'll...

So you guys are going to love this one to add to the book we could all write.
Struggle with your teenage daughters? My SD adores her father and has a great relationship with me. She confides in me, and pretty much trusts me with some pretty big secrets. We've had 3 counselors confirm this for us, independently. That, and SD tells me things that I know she does not tell her dad, or BioMom. Unfortunately, SD has been so hurt by BioMom that she feels it is better to dislike BioMom and that way she doesn't get hurt. Whenever BioMom calls, SD is short in answers. When they go on any visitation, SD treats her mom horribly.
So... DH told me that BM was talking to him about cutting SD5's pony tail (butt length) to donate it for cancer patients... WTF??? She said that SD5 said she wants to do it but honestly I think that 5 year olds are not capable of taking decisions like that.
She is a Girly girl, she LOVES her hair long, and I'm sure saying that "she wants to do it" and actually "doing it" is different... when she sees her shoulder length hair... oh gosh...
So FH and I want to send SD to preschool in Sept. We are willing to pay for all of it but BM doesn't want to do it because of cost. BM was all about it until she heard the price tag, however, FH and I have offered to pay ALL. Well I was wondering if there was a way we could take her to court to make her take SD to preschool? She works full time so SD has to go either to day care or preschool regardless. In your opinion is preschool worth sending a child to? Also BM has recently moved in with BF's parents. FH and I just found out that BM, BF, and SD all share one room.
my SS5's pouty miserable weekend.
I finally stopped dealing with SS and his behavior issues. I call FH EVERYtime he acts up now..eventually I hope he'll get sick of my calls and start actually disciplining SS when he gets home. I told FH I can't deal with his behavior..it's getting worse..he's testing me and becoming a real brat - a few people mentioned his freshness over the weekend.
I get next to nothing a week in child support (let's just say enough to fill my gas tank - I drive an SUV). I used to get alot more but than he got laid off for a year..and he brought me to court..I was fine with that..I mean the guy wasn't working and has other kids..so they lowered it..lo and behold we find out two years later he was back to work for a year and kept it a secret so that I wouldn't go back to court. I never did even after I found out.
and left a message asking DH to call her, but when he called, he got the guys VM, So he sent a text message saying.. Tell BM that SS is fine and when will she be home so we can drop him off... WTF!!!
Finally she calls back an hour later and says she'll be home..
I am so tired of this nut-job, seriously..
Found out-because I was bored and just that nosey that she's been bouncing checks, I told DH to hurry up and run his credit report, as she was notorious for writing bad checks in the past.. and did so against a joint account that he was not aware was still open..
Well, after having DH told by BM to give up his visitation weekend for a birthday party. We tried to get her to give us the details so that we could just show up early and take sd since it was so important.
Of course she did not reply to any of my DHs texts or emails after he told her he would not give up his entire weekend for the birthday party.
SO we got on the road and drove from VA (4 1/2 hours) to NC getting there at 6pm. Called and hoped that we could have at least taken SD ourselves to the party or pick her up for the visitation as stated in the court order.
