I can't win

Mary Louise's picture

We had a long talk with my fiance's parents. I am so exhausted, tired, angry and fed up with them. They sat and blamed me to me face for every problem that has occurred between them and my fiance since his divorce. Their whole defense as to why they go to his ex is that they can't trust me. That I keep the kids from them and convince him to.

Tired of doing all the mom work

Why is it that I end up responsible for all of my SD's regular healthcare needs? What I mean is, I am the one that makes all of her appointments and takes her and sees that she gets the care she needs. She does not live with us and they live very far away. So she only comes to visit in the summer and on holidays. Every time she comes I have to take her to some Dr. This time she has broken her glasses again. I have made the appt. and we will go for an eye exam and get her some new ones over Christmas break.

School Pictures (vent)

So we have never had luck with school pictures in past years. I don't know why I thought this year would be any different. BM leaves us a message the night before picture day at 9:30 pm when she knows we were on vacation. Needless to say we didn't get to order them. I notified the teacher and told her to let us know when retakes where. SD closed her eyes so she was going to have to take them anyway. The teacher was great and sent us the package order form. I mailed a check to the school and somehow they didn't get it on picture day. Go figure!

My Stepmother.....My Angel

Chel Bell's picture

I'm 35 years old..... but I'll never forget the day I met my mom. I was given up for adoption.... my BM could not keep me, and was adopted by my father and his first wife. It became clear to me when I was about 4 , that she did not want me either.....my little sister was born, and her marrage with my father was breaking up. "Mother" took all her anger out on me, she was terribly abusive.... needless to say I went to go live with my father, then later so did my sister. Then my father met Nancy....my mom.

I am 21 and have a 38 year old live in boyfriend, who i have been with a year. we are 4 months pregnant, and im beginning to panic a little bit. he has a 4 year old daughter, who is beautiful and smart and he completely adores her. we have just gotten to where she is able to come stay with us. she is really competative with me, and im not sure what to do. when she is around it seems like im not allowed to have emotions. im not yet used to having to share him.

Sooo... My DH informs me last night that his kids are having a pagent on Tues. I say.. great, I will put in for some vaca time to go. DH says.. oh.. you dont have a lot of vaca time... no need, I will go alone. He was very persistant that I do not go.

I DONT want him sitting w/her and her family because I dont want anyone to THINK they are a family.. and I dont want the skids to think that I didnt want to go.. I already think they are turning against me (they are only 9).

These cheered me up so maybe they will cheer you up, too.

A Christmas Story

'Twas the night before Christmas--Old Santa was pissed.
He cussed out the elves and threw down his list.
Miserable little brats, ungrateful little jerks.
I have a good mind to scrap the whole works!

I've busted my ass for damn near a year,
Instead of 'Thanks Santa'--what do I hear?
The old lady bitches cause I work late at night.
The elves want more money--The reindeer all fight.

I am so depressed

BB told BF that she will not sign the divorce papers. She told him this after she asked when we were going to get married. So know she is not going to sign the papers. She said that she was going to get her a lawyer so that she can get half of his retirement. They have been separated just as long as they have been married. I just want to beat the f*&k out of her. I told him the skids can't come down today b/c if BB is the one dropping them off I am going to go to jail tonight. I have never met someone who is so selfish, mean spirited, and as stupid as she is.
