It seems like every weekend lately is filled with stress, Friday was D-day, so to speak, at least for SS. It was 30 days from his last drug test and time to do another one, the ultimatum was either it's clean or you need to find another place to live.
My SS who is 7 and SD who is 9 told us last night that...
The reason Santa only brought them one present at their moms house is because she had to PAY santa claus for the presents and she could only afford to send money for one.
She said... "That is why you got more than one present at dad's house...because he can afford more presents from Santa!"
HA! Crazy woman!
I'm still PMSing.
I'm PMSing! ARGGGGGGGGGGGG!
I hate it when I'm like this and my husband says the classic....
"Oh, you'll need a nap today!"
This is after I get the kids up and do the normal morning rituals. Get dressed, breakfast, put backpacks in orders, sign assignments, snacks, lunches, etc.
Have you all ever wondered what if BM reads your posts? I for one would love it because then she'd know how much I truly hate her. She's a pathilogical liar which also means that she believes her own lies so she'd probably not get anything else I was saying, but she'd know without a doubt DH and I hate her to the core for what she's done to our family.
That's what I'd want her to know. What she's done to my family is irreparable and unforgiveable. The only words I'll ever have for her are "go f*** yourself".
So, DH finally got email about first semister grades we've been waiting a month for. She simply states her GPA no class by class grades no real confirmation. Just her word -- which is worth nothing these days.
Then, she says that DH will owe $150 in late fees for missing the tuition deadline. HUM, we were never informed of when to pay by the school or SD. So, because SD is completely irresponsible, we owe $150 on top of $3000. That's nice.
The latest poll regarding gifts reminded me of one of the ex's tricks. Back when we were all trying to get along for the kids' sake (we don't fight now, I just act as if she doesn't exist), she would always invite us to the kids b-day parties that she was throwing even though from the first one we told her "NO, you have a party, we'll have a party, that way they'll get two parites." But, no, she had to invite us and our family members so that it looked bad to the kids when we didn't show up or invite her to our parties.
When a husband and wife divorce and husband moves on and moves into new relationship whether just common-law or marriage, does his child support and spousal support change to go on the new amount of husband and new relationship partner.
My mom has been so worried about SD (as we all have!) that she decided to write a letter to SD's therapist. I wanted to share it with all of you, because it is so spot on.
Dear Dr. M,
I am writing with shared concern regarding your patient, SD. My daughter Caitlin has informed me of the current situation. SD’s father, BF, may have spoken to you about my resolve to involve Social Services in order to ensure SD’s safety and well being.
We had our son's 2nd birthday party this weekend at my house.So my BC and SC were here...along with family and friends.My oldest SD (she is 11)had my video vamera and sneaks upstairs with it to goof around with it with her friends.So turns out they are in my room..no big deal...BF retrieves the camera and brings it back to me.Later my SD tells me that she wanted to do a video on thongs and proceeded to go thru my underwear draw and pull out some of my intimates (if you know what I mean).SD then shows them to her friends and my youngest SD (she is 7).I was furious.So her dad (my BF) tells he
Question:
What is the best way to handle a SD who:
1. Interupts whenever her father and I are talking. (will sulk and say "NEVERMIND" when we tell her that it's not nice to interupt)
2. Comes and pushes herself inbetween us while we are walking or sitting on the couch.
3. Will come and sit directly on top of her father if she has no room to come in between.
This has been going on for almost 2 years. My reaction has always been......
1. I will act like it completely doesn't bother me.
2. I walk away.
