I'm sitting here at the computer reading posts on this site. In the next room my DH is talking on the phone with one of my SS (age 25). DH is suggesting that SS come over and work on the house, like clean gutters, rearrange bricks, etc. I hear this and my heart just starts beating double-time.
I feel awful since it has been so long but I hope everyone understands- time has been running out on me lately. our son came on the 16th, we are both home and healthy. Everyone is adjusting to the new guy, and we are so happy even at the night feedings!
Thank you all, I will hopefully get the opportunity to catch up on the happenings soon.
BF and BM had a long-overdue and much-needed talk last night. Originally it started out with her wanting to switch weekends because SS is sick. They got that straightened out, and then of course she started to talk about other things. BF decided to humor her (finally) and gave her the answers she had been wanting for so long on some questions she had. She ended up sobbing and crying. He got the chance to yell at her and ask her what the hell was wrong with her and set her straight on a lot of things.
I have no idea what I am doing anymore. DH came home from counseling today with the ex and kids, bad bad bad. I don't even want to go into the details. I just don't know what to do anymore. I told my husband tonight that I didn't want to go to counseling with the kids. They apparently said I should attend. Why? So they can tell me they don't like me, that I am emotionally abusive, that I am a bad mother and a bad person. That is what they told him tonight. I am not those things and just because they have been given license to say their mind doesn't mean I should have to listen.
Peachy. My mother & I planned on going to the Renaissance Festival tomorrow, just me & her since my step dad has to work. Well, he doesn't want to miss out so he's doing everything he can to go. Now I'm not irritated by this because I want my mother all to myself. I'm irritated because he usually makes me feel like he doesn't want me around. That's what I want, to go to Ren Fest & be treated like a piece of crap... NOT! (Thank God they serve alcohol) He'd better be in a good mood tomorrow, because if he's not & he wants to be a jerk it'll be on like Donkey Kong!
Okay so long story short my dh and I are moving. BM is in a bad situation with her current housing. She lives with a Jerk. So dh and I decided it would be great to turn our apartment over to her so she could get out of her current situation. Great! Everyone's happy. PHHLLPS not our landlord. He's being a jerk b/c he wnated us to buy the home...no way.....so he says she can't move in. SO now BF and I are discussing the whole screwed up situation...and he feels bad...me too I say...but no he feels really bad...yeah me too I say...no he feels bad not just for the kids but for the ex too.
This is what happened. A couple of months back BM called my DH screaming at him that she wanted to see his tax returns for 2006 and that she was sure he made more money and was going to take him back to court! She just did that Nov/06, not even a year ago and the judge gave her more money...She calls my DH at work and he hates it.
So why am I upset, a cheque cleared the account the other day and it was for more than it should have been. I called DH and he says he is paying her more. WTF?
Yesterday turned into a very nice anniversary. We went out to a friend's ranch where we got married with some of our extended family. We rode horses, sat around the pool to watch the sunset and drank white wine. (sorry no red was offered). Then we drove home and on the drive we had one of those "real" talks. It was great. Sometimes when we feel so far apart and the gap seems to divide us, we really aren't that far away as we think. When we talked we saw how we were both thinking and feeling the same way and yes it brought us closer. So very good for us.
There is something I need to get off my chest this morning...
To you men, you BF's & SF's who treat the kids as your own, Kudos! You have my respect & my admiration, because in my experience, men like you are all too scarce.
We went grocery shopping last night. A couple hours after we got home, we get this email: "SS wants to know how your trip to (Grocery Store) was tonight. We saw you two all over the place. It upset SS badly."
