Someone please tell me what to do!

So we have court in less than 30 days. We paid an attorney. This attorney has not even called us back after we paid him in MARCH! I have called and called. Finally sent in a faxed letter last week begging for some response as to whether we have representation or if he just wants to return our money. His office jumped. Admitted guilt and set up new phone conference. No call again. This was a week ago. No call in yet another week. Now his contract says that the fee is non refundable if we decide to terminate but isn't he the one deciding to breach his contract instead?

The long Talk...

Tonight DH and I had a very long discussion as to why I don't want to be involved with SD4 and SS15. It was very intense and emotional. I had to explain to him that although I knew of the kids and was around the kids before we married, I never knew that my feelings regarding them would intensify to this level. Now that we are married, I can't stand the fact that my husband made babies with another woman...It really disgusts me. We went back and forth about the hurt and misery that it's causing all of us.

Oh money / Where SS eats dinner

BF told me this afternoon that he was on his way to BM's town to give SS some money for his field trips tomorrow and Friday. I said OK, I just hope the money actually goes to SS. We haven't been told anything about these field trips except when BM demanded money for them from BF a while back. We still haven't gotten any details about these trips except that SS needs spending money for them.

I love love love it here

I love the nicknames and want to redo my profile. I love the way there are others who feel as I do, who go through the same experiences. I spend far too much time at my desk reading the blogs in lieu of working. Still, just wanted to say I really enjoy this site.

I have been my happiest with SD14 and DH since becoming a "vocal" part of the site. Now when SD14 does something I just smile and shake my head b/c I know that someone else in the world has gone through the same thing and survived it.

So just wanted to say that.

OMG.. It just hit me. The reason DH bends over backwards for whatever BM wants is because he feels needed and like someone is

depending on him. I am not an dependent person and she is the TOTAL opposite, she cannot do ANYTHING by herself. She has to have SS17 to go with her to get her oil changed, okay... seriously?!? Oh yes, everything and of course, that gives her opportunity to call DH. And, since she constantly calls him (& I do mean on a daily basis) and he always jumps, this could be the only explanation.

OT: our engagement announcement

kaffonseca's picture

I came into work this morning to find this past's weekend's Sunday engagement section on my desk. There was an engagement announcement of FH and I. I think his mom sent in the info., I'm not sure as I haven't had a chance to talk to her yet.

But it made me smile. It's the first time I had an "engagement" announcement and I feel like a little girl planning her "big day"..even though I'm not planning on having a big wedding, a ceremony on the beach in Jamaica is what we want.

I just thought I'd share my happiness..

I wonder if BM will see it..LOL!

My side of the coin...and how I ended up being a stepmom-long

Once upon a time...guess that's how to begin. I was a stay at home Mom, with two beautiful little boys. I loved my life, my husband, my children. We had a good life, boating every weekend in the summer, I taught Sunday School and was a Scout leader, my husband had a great job. I can remember one spring day, driving back home from the store to plant flowers, thinking how happy I was. I grew up small town, with values that I maintain to this day. Naive? Yep. Too trusting? Yes. And I'm still that way today.

In the same boat?

I enjoy this site very much, but sometimes I feel as if my situation is very different from most of the others. So I was wondering how many can relate to my situation? I have a very young SD3, I have been in her life since she had barely turned one. To her I am a parent. Also BM and my fiancé were never married. They dated for a couple of months, fought the whole time, and when BM got pregnant they split. SD has never not had two different households. None of Soon to be Hubby's family likes BM so they were ecstatic when I entered the picture.
