So BM and I are real friendly now and she confides in me and we are one big happy family just like I always wanted. Or is it?
Just to get it out of the way I'll say, yes, maybe I am crazy myself for wanting this relationship with bm after all she has done. My only excuse is my love for SD. IF you could only see how much better she is now that DH and I are on BM's good side.
How do you deal with skids and doorbells and keys???
We have SD8 every other week with a Sunday exchange day.
DH hates that SD8 has to go back and forth and feels guilt. He doesn't like that SD8 rings the doorbell when she comes home. "This is her house". So, he has told her she doesn't have to ring the doorbell when she comes home.
Yesterday, we were in our livingroom and SD8 and BM walk in (no doorbell ringing) to the entryway.
of my short little rope and I am sooooo sick of SD16. I NEED her to MOVE back with sugarmama PRONTO!!!!!
Yesterday H was all nice and wonderful over the phone. Of course he was-he wanted me to take SD14 out for lunch, and give her yet more money for her birthday....she had a party 2 weeks ago, which yes, I went to. Gave her $75.00. Her birthday is today, so yesterday he wanted me to give her another $25.00 & take her out. oh, girls, he was so nice to me. Oh, thanking me, so appreciative.
Today. Back to his normal self. I was so happy-the gift I ordered him for Christmas came. So I told him-not what it was-just that it came.
Me: I'm so happy-your Christmas present came.
Looking back on this time last year, I can see a huge change is SS's behavior. He's been getting worse and worse a little at a time, and over time it's accumulated to make him a lot different than he used to be.
My birthday was on saturday. It was the worst birthday I have ever had, not because anything bad happened, but b/c nothing happened. It would have been a fine day had it not been my bday. My DH had to remind the skids to say happy birthday to me. They didn't even make me a card or anything. I have lived with them for 2 years. My DH had been sick with the flu for the three days prior which he says interfered with all of his surprise plans for me. So he took me out to a store to buy a pair of shoes I had wanted and we went to breakfast. He did try but he had been so sick before.
So far, nothing has come of SD's grandfather pushing the custody issue. He had planned on going to the police at the end of last week to file a report, but due to the snow storm he had to work pretty much all day Friday and most of the weekend (works for electric co) so as of yesterday, he was planning on going today. I really hope this all does not lose momentum. SD has gotten her hopes up around this issue too many times, and I'd hate to see it all fall apart now.
Just another thing that I have to vent about because I just don't get this at all...Step Brat (age 12) is all picky about her clothes and how her hair is styled...(IE..not liking the shoes purchased for the recital or the shirt that I pulled out of my closet to let her try on for said recital.) And she is real big into having accessories ect. However, what I don't get is that she is so concerned about her clothing and her hair "looking retarded". Yet, her hair is greasy as hell.
A few people asked so I thought I would give an update on the recital.
and blew a gasket! You wouldn't believe the S**t I go through!! Check out this email we got
from BM. For reference, Betty has been a friend of ours for over 6
