Hi Everyone! I'm caught between excitement and fear here! We got the court papers today. By email. I'm going to post the email from the attorney:
Hey there – here’s the agreed order – BM has signed it – if it looks good to you and you return the fourth and fifth page signed it will be done. If you have any suggestions for corrections just let me know and I will ask BM if she’s good with them too and we can make changes if you two can agree on them.
Ok, so we're planning to move to be closer to SD, right? Well, you'd think we were putting SD in grave danger by BM's reaction to this. She is basically threatening to pick up and move SD far away if we move to a) her town or b) the neighboring town she lives right next to. Oh, like she can forbid us to move to a specific zip code or two? PLEASE! I am so fed up with this BS!
Do you think if we tried to make everyone feel good about themselves, rather than feel the insults, and alienation ourselves, would we change the feelings of our step kids and husbands.
What do you guys feel about that? Please think about it and let me know. I feel it is important to ask questions, right or wrong.
Thanks.
So... We have our monthly two hour supervised visit with the BM this Friday. A day NO ONE in our house looks forward to, especially SD13. After the last visit I discussed with DH that I would prefer to not attend the visitations anymore because I'm not 8 months pregnant and I have no intention of taking my son to see this woman. Because I don't feel like we should subject any more children to this woman, she is, to be nice, an idiot!
The "her" I'm referring to is my SD's BM...I mean BioBiaach. I get so put out by her always passing judgment with no merit, I could spit. You see she thinks her daughter's are perfect or at least when they visit her every other weekend, I should say. She doesn't have custody of them, if that tells you anything. Yeah I mean the woman is out there. When the girls visit, it is her goal to drill them on what has occurred in our home while they've been gone to the point of minute by minute play. This baffles me because, firstly I think....Why does she care?
The latest drama BM wants to pull is the fact that she wants us to "switch weekends" again, because she says that SS has a birthday party that he really wants to go to. First she asked if she could pick him up early, and then she said to switch weekends. Although now I'm pretty sure she set this argument up, because she has now told my husband that SS "won't be able to keep his scheduled visit", because "he has plans that day". Indeed he has plans, to spend time with his father and other family.
As some of you know, I have a Myspace account, and on there, I have posted photos of my family and some of our activities. My family includes my SO's daughter, from marriage number 1 and kids, as well as his mom and brother. They have all accepted me and treat me really, really well.
The problem is with his second marriage and two boys, aged 18 and 20. The ex has tried and tried to alienate these kids from their dad, and has been mostly successful, until recently. My SO has been able to make some little progress in communicating with the 18 year old.
hello ladies:
So next monday is my handsome fiance's b-day so i sent an email to BM asking if the skids could spend the night that day. She replied that we could drop them off at 9:00 p.m. istead of 7:30 p.m. to allow for extra time. I was happy with the outcome even though i didn't get what I wanted. I will not start a figh with her. So I respond by thanking her.
too many women play a victim role. and every situation they face they tend to see themselves as a victim. poor me!
We need to be strong, take what we want, take what we deserve - don't let sks, bms, idiot dfs treat us like crap.
My heart is hurting so bad right now. I don't care what kind of a parent you are, having to walk away from a sick 3yo who is begging you not to leave her there is the worst feeling in the world.
