just wondering if anyone knows the law here in kentucky. and no, he's not my cousin, hardy har har.
but seriously, we have no kids, i purchased the house by myself before we married, my car is in my name and paid off, and i'm really not worried about the credit card that we shared prior to marriage...i just want something simple and easy, and cheap! plus i have these questions if anyone knows...
I'm having a tough time lately. I read about disengaging and pretty much disengaged with BM. Things have been good in that regard for the past 6 months or so. Problem now? I'm about to be the primary parent in both my SD's life, and I'm "only" the stepmother.
Hi all,
well this past weekend they came for a visit,me and dh are trying to work things out.the golden child had some homework to to on sunday night of course she wants to do it when im trying to work things out...and of course he say ok ( i will help you) homework time in this house are awful dh and her big fights break out between them.so i knew whats was comming....so i went to my room while they did homework and of course the big fight...yelling screaming kicking and slamming doors she when into her old room.
Okay, so my DH obviously did something pretty good, right? Well, as I mentioned in other posts, I finally spoke my mind after 4 years to BM, nothng degrading or diminishing, simply the facts as I saw them. But I had never done that before, so she was none too pleased about it. She is now saying that she is going to take us to court, which we are preparing for. I think it will actually be good, because she has so much money, and we go so above and beyond what is ordered with finances, transportation and visitation, that things may actually finally get to some semblance of fair.
For some reason BM is getting on my nerves more than usual. From what I read about on the site, I definitely don't have it as bad as many others out there. Today, she did something that really makes no sense to me. MY fiance's company is sponsoring a holiday party of sorts for all the kids of the employees. It falls on their mom's normal custody day but during the time that the kids are normally in daycare. It is also the night that his daughter has dance class. He asked her if he could take the kids and she basically said no.
Although I have stated that I love my fiancee more than words I am starting to really ponder if I'm even doing the right thing by sticking around here. My fiancee seems to pick on my daughter more than his own spoiled brat of a son because she has ADHD and hasn't been put on any medication yet because we're waiting on her therapist to refer her to a psychiatrist. She is a very good kid otherwise but she has issues with hyperactivity and impulsive behaviors.
I had my third pre-natal drs appt today. I was nervous because I have had miscarriages in the past. DH couldn't make it. He had to work 8-4. Fine! Whatever. I also needed to have blood taken ( I get dizzy) so my dad was gonna go. DH flipped out saying That I am an adult and should be able to go by myself. Fine FU I went by myself. (If DH really wants to be concerned with people not growing up he shold look at his BD who still calls him, DADA depite constant reminders not to)BLAH.
After this weekend, it finally hit me that we go through this every single year around this time. There are other episodes during the year but it seems to come on the strongest around the holidays. The straw that broke the camels back was Saturday. I spent the morning running errands and the rest of the day power cleaning the living room in preparation for the Christmas tree. Where was DH? In our bedroom.
(results to be announced soon)
let me preface this by saying i went to a lil' league award banquet this weekend. it was absolutely terrible...
last year, HD picked up his banquet ticket. it came with instructions, "there is a ticket for (SS), a ticket for me (BM) and a ticket for YOU (HD). YOU are more than welcome to join us." this year, we were made aware that there are tickets available for purchase, so we did and i attended.
I just signed onto this blog and not sure if anyone will see me. I am a step mom to an 8 year old boy. I have been his step mom over 4 years now and from day one I have had the issue of him going through times of thinking I am not nice to him. He says I'm rude, I ignore him, and I am not loving to his bio mom. The funny thing is I think we have a good relationship. He is not an affectionate kid and so I tend to not be as affectionate with him and wait for his signals. Nothing worse than giving a child a hug who tells you not to and pulls away.
