I am in a real pickle here and need some sound advice from any of you who may have experience this issue. DH wants to take BM to a mediator and discuss why he wants the SK's on a more even basis. Currently the SK's come over EOW and for three hours one day per week. During the summer, we get them every other week. They have expressed, strongly, that they want to switch week on and week off with mom and dad. BM tells the kids that if they do this, they can just stay over at dads (although she guilts them into thinking they don't love her if they choose this option).
Ok guys - this is really off topic. But I had something happen today that has freaked me out a little bit but I'm also wondering if I'm just overreacting. Here goes.
I live in an apartment complex. 3 Floors in each building. 4 Apartments on each floor. I live on the top floor #12. You have to get buzzed into our communal hallway and then we each have our own (locking) doors.
Stepdaughter called back and said "I wouldn't be caught dead being seen with a big boobed bubble head like you.." How can I not feel hurt from something like that?? I've always tried to be nice to her and include her in everything.
So, we all know how are dh's are all like.. LOVE my kids like your own, if you had kids I would totally be understanding.. I would love them unconditionally yada yada yada!!
BM picked up skids yesterday after missing her last 2 scheduled visitations during our summer visitation (we have skids for 6 weeks in summer). Of course she has to make a problem wherever she goes. Court ordered time is 6 pm pick up and she requested to come earlier. FH said okay 3 pm from which she said fine. He texted her to make sure she wouldn't come before 3 as I had an appointment. She freaked out that she could not work her life around my schedule.
MY FH and I had our wedding planned for over a year to get married on Sept 7 and hold our reception on Sept 19 with a unity ceremony with his boys since we were elloping.
Well we "officially" became engaged 2 days before Valentine's day. A month later his ex becomes engaged. (She hasn't even dated the guy for a year)
Well all of a sudden a month later she decides she's getting married on Sept 19th!
Should weekly or bi-weekly hair care (Girl) be covered in the CS that is received?
Another one of those decisions that I thought I had a say so in in regard to sk's. However, just saw an email from BM that stated that DH told sk's different story than what he told me. He better have a real good reason for this one!!
OMG.. SS10 isnt here even 2 mins after not being here since the end of June (skids were away visiting grandparents several states away for the first 2.5 weeks of July) and he ALREADY made a comment about bs 3mos. Said, and I quote.. Oh.. he looks so CLUELESS!!!
I bit my tongue!! But after he and his sister went to their room to drop their bag, I said to my dh that he NEEDS to say something next time a derogatory comment is made about bs 3mos, because if I say something.. NEITHER of them will like it..
She is coming to our house Sat. morning @ 9a.m. to see how well my children interact with SS and to see if he has a bed at our home, and how we live- No one is really very coherant @ 9a.m., but O.K...
The Guardian ad litem let us know that BM called her on the day of our first court date and stood the GAL up, and guess what, she did the same thing last week- so she has stood up the woman investigating her TWICE.. She's nuttier than I originally thought.
Who would do that?
