Here I am on Christmas morning, sitting here alone at the computer. I was hoping and expecting something different...maybe next year will be better.
This is my BF's first Christmas away from his girls. He had them this weekend, and they did their Christmas with him last night. He also plans on going over to the Ex's sometime today and give the girls one last gift from him that they get to open on Christmas morning.
bf is separated and visiting daughter who lives in home country(philippines) for a month... first demand... he goes out(movies,malls) with kid and ex-wife to show daughter there's still essence of being a family. meaning... he's trying to beat what ex-wife's bf is doing and feels that he's being replaced as a father. second demand, we should lessen our calling and texting one another coz he said its his vacation(i live in the philippines too, i just visit him in the US very often) and he needs time(space) for himself to do his own stuff. I never demanded for him to see me everyday.
Well, I thought I would post on the selfishness of my step-daughter. Hubby called her and the step-son last week to inform them of Christmas plans for this year. He called them both back on Friday to tell them what time we would be eating, etc. We had Christmast at our home with hubby's parents and sister yesterday and invited both of the step-children. When hubby spoke to them they both said Christmas Eve was perfect for them. Step-son showed up and and we really enjoyed him. Step-daughter was a NO SHOW!
Well oldest SD, her husband and the 2 grandkids....the 8 month old we've never seen....arrived in our city 2 days ago...
.......they're only a 10 minute drive away.
We've heard nothing...no phone call....no visit...nothing..but they have visited with everyone else.....and have had to practically drive past our house to get there.
Hubby is the 'only' grandfather.......and is who the 2 1/2 year old wanted to call..out of everyone and brag about his 'first poop in the big toilet'...lol
... It never ends. I think I just need to vent. I have no idea how to sum up 5 years of hell in a few paragraphs but I'll try.
Hi all and Merry Christmas. I need some support. I was at my BF home last eveing, we have been together for over 2 years and go back and forth between our two homes depending on whos kids are home. Anyway, he has his 9 year old son for the weekend and we three are doing a gingerbread house. The phone rings and I answer, someone hangs up. I guess its his twisted Mother. The phone rings again and its a man who asks if the son is home and I hand him the phone, it was the bio Moms boyfriend we guess. He son talks and then hangs up.
I feel like such a monster sometimes. My SD has been with her BM for the past few weekends (we only have her for the weekends) due to extracurricular activities and DH work schedule and I have enjoyed not having her here. Now we have her this weekend (Christmas weekend) and I am resenting it. I had to play off my bad mood to having sinus problems / headache because I am ashamed to admit I am resentful of a 6 yo. It would upset my DH because he understandedly loves his daughter.
I love this song, but I'm not going to post the whole thing...just a few lines. This is from "My Grown Up Christmas List". I thought this was appropriate for what a lot of us are going through 
No more lives torn apart,
and wars would never start,
and time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend,
and right would always win,
and love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
Happy Holidays everyone!
What I want for Christmas is for us all to have as stress-free and healthy a holiday as possible. Our fist overnight visitation is supposed to be coming up next week. We're supposed to have SS for three days and two nights. BM has already talked of plans to not let SS come or things that she can do to try to prove that BF isn't fit to have him for overnight visits. I really just wish that she will leave things alone for once and let things happen the way that they're supposed to. No one needs the additional stress around the holidays that she could potentially cause, especially SS.
SD told me a few weeks ago that at the top of her Christmas wishlist was a photo album with both her families in it. She so desperately wants us all to get along and I think she thought of this as a way to get us talking and cooperating.
