My mother came up for Christmas and my daughter is here for most of the week. Its so nice not to have to worry about whether the ex gfs kids are going to throw a fit or when. Its nice not to have to worry about whether they will like what they got or throw a temper tantrum. Shopping for my daughter was much easier than shopping for three kids. My mom's presence has offered a calming influence on the home. Cookies and bratzels and the smell of other baked goodies fill the air.
Sheesh...why can't one ex at least take the high road? I really wish I could be blogging about good things in my life on this board...BF and his ex just NOW are fighting over who gets SS which christmas day...because BOTH are too immature to talk to each other without getting into a pissing match...and yes it pisses me off...cause it involves my plans that we had already made two weeks ago...so once again since she "plays dirty" he has to play dirty too...am I the only parent who has an ex that DOESN'T act all stupid and immature towards their ex?
Hey everyone...I haven't posted much, I'm still a newbie and haven't told my story yet, but will soon when I have the energy because it's long. Anyway, my DH was recently laid off and he has been having a hard time making his bills. After his CS is paid, there's not much money left over. So as you can imagine, it really put a damper on our Christmas. We had to tell SS10 that we couldn't give him the presents he wanted, that he wouldn't be getting anything. We had to borrow money from my mom to help make the bills this month.
Last week I noticed an odd charge to our checking account. I was for 29.99 from some company in care of another company. I went to the bank and did an unauthorized paper draft, and then went home and called the companies customer service number. It turns out that who ever did this knows us because they used my DH's name and our checking account information to buy porn online!!!!! I went to the police and they asked me if we know who did it, and I told them no, but I have an idea who might have done it.
I'm so pissed off that my blood is boiling!!! BM or (C U Next Tuesday) was we lovingly refer to her has done it again! About two years ago it was DH's year to get SD11 for the first part of Christmas and BM's for second part....well BM's mother wanted to take the grandchildren to Disney World. Now first I have to ask....how selfish was that of her? At any rate, DH made BM sign an agreement (not through an attorney) that she would give up her next Christmas (which was last year) so that DH could have her. Well this year it was supposed to go back to the regular schedule.
I'll have limited access to a computer until Wednesday, so I just wanted to wish everyone here a good weekend & for those who celebrate Christmas, have a merry Christmas!
I guess after the last hearing in October we just kinda got on with living and it's been busy. We had some water damage in our bathroom and ended up remodeling completely, most of the work Dh and I did ourselves. Was having a little trouble getting things done while Dh was at work because I was so tired. I took two pregnancy tests before Thanksgiving, but I just couldn't believe it until we had the first sonogram last week. There's really a baby in there!
So last week, DH went to pick up his tickets for SS7 Christmas concert. While he was there the kids where just going to lunch, so he asked to see SS. Well I guess SS told his mom that DH was at the school. BM called the school and told them that DH is to have no contact with SS at the school what so ever. We found that out cuz DH called the school to see if there were any tickets left so his parents could also go to the concert. And the sectratery had said that DH is not alwolled to see SS with out concent from BM. That is so not right, they have shared cusidy and gaudianship.
There has to be a law out there somewhere that says it's a crime to mess around with kids minds. Recently, SD wanted BM to come see her since it's been nearly 2 years since thier last visit. BM said she'd come Dec.21-24 and stay at a motel only if SD would be able to spend the night with her. As hard as it was to agree to this, we decided that it would be okay since SD is 14 now. A few days later, BM calls and says she can't afford to come for 4 days and it would ruin Christmas for her other 2 children if she had to spend all of her money on a motel.
my husband has suddenly decided that his 12yo daughter is to move in with us!! We have been married 3 years and he has been divorced for 7. I was not even consulted about this and by the way, this was not part of the long term plan when we decided to get married. I personally think that daughters are better off with their mothers> Now what am I to do!!! I am 28 years old and was planning to have a baby next year!! How do I tell my DH that I dont think this is a good idea?? If fact I think it's the most horrible thing i have heard in a long time!!
