Our BM is minimal involvement in ss school...goes to parent teacher conference and that is about it. If he were mine I would juggle work and being room mom all at the same time. I want to be more involved in his school but not sure how. For sure BM would be pissed.
A bit of background on me and my mindset about this:
When I was married, my ex and I bought a house together. I brought about 25K from my family into that purchase, so we would have a downpayment. My family is not rich per se, they're just savvy with money and being an only child of an only child, I am lucky enough to have two generations who were able to be generous with me in this way. Also, my parents paid for a very expensive wedding.
So.. we had the skids this weekend. A couple we know stopped by, and started chatting w/the skids yesterday. They asked if the skids were all set for school w/their supplies and clothes.. (we never thought of asking.. not sure why!?!) and sd9 says, no.. We have to wait til everything goes on sale. The only things on sale right now are tank tops.
Ok.. our friends looked horrified, I was embarassed.. Not sure dh heard it. So SD9 goes on... about saving money and how much things costs... yadda yadda yadda..
Hello All,
This is my first post as I just found this site very recently although I wish I had found it long ago. Maybe this will help me to let some things out and not always make my FH hear about it.
Any suggestions on how to get SD13 to sleep in her own room? She has been in the baby nursery since she arrived at our house a month ago. SD13 didn't want to live with BM anymore. BF and I let her sleep in the nursery since it was so warm outside and her room in upstairs. Well now that I'm days away from having a baby, I wanted the nursery in order and we moved SD13 upstairs. For the past four hours we have heard howling and screaming and crying. We have tried to make it more comfortable for her, letting the dog sleep with her, leaving the light on etc.
I haven't been in here for almost 7 months. When I changed jobs (to get away from a crazy, abusive boss) things got better for me. They still are. The work I do now is boring, and it's not what I want to do long term, but at least the pay is good and the people are pleasant. I have a long-term plan that I'm working on to start my own business in about 5 years, and so every day I remind myself of the big picture. I say to myself, "Keep your eye on the prize." That takes me past those situations where I want to scream or cry or both.
well the sd rings last night ( the bm was in town this weekend so our ears were ringing. bm, the 3rd party and that would of been playing sd ) as she rang to tell hubby that "it's in her best interests for her to end their relationship"! he was devastated. And angry... we know its them in her head, but she's like a lamb following to the slaughter... i wonder if she realises just what she has done? Because when there comes a time she decides to want her father back he might not want to go there again! Hubby let the councellor know this and pass it on.
I think I may be a regular visitor now. Things with Melanie are still the same. She is out on her own now and due to be married next August. We still have a volatile relationship. To add fuel to the fire, my bio son, who is disrepectful and a know it all, threatened to "beat the sh*!" out of my husband (Melanie's father) for requesting a monthly payment on a car loan we co-signed for him 4 months ago. Well Melanie decided that she was going to take my son into her condo as a border!
I only get on here once in a while because if my wife knew that I was on here she would have a fit, and especially if she knew that I was blogging about her precious golden child. I am really now completely and totally fed up with the whole situation that I'm in and I think that I am ready to just get the hell out for my sake and my childrens' sakes. I feel like a prisoner in my own home now. I can't even scold my SS without him running to his "Mommy" and telling her.
I haven't posted in a long time....but I am so frustrated and disappointed this weekend that I need to vent.
New ladies out there that are just getting in the situation that most of us are in - RUN, RUN, RUN as fast as you can. There are thousands of wonderful man out there without a package. Things don't ever get better - pkease don't fool yourselves like I did (and others).
If I only could do it all over again.....I wouldn't be blogging here. Hugs to everyone.
