BF told my son Thursday morning when his Dad took him "to call your mother & let her know what's going on".
I also left a voice message on X's cell phone..early Thursday Evening for x to call me. It's Saturday...I've heard nothing from either one of them.
I'll call his family...and see if they know what's going on..
Bio-Mom's planned visit for Sunday has been cancelled. She's gone to South Carolina with her new boyfriend because her Mom (who she was living with in Alabama) "started some things." She did not mention coming back to Alabama any time soon. The kids are not happy campers. I hate how she jerks them around like this. All that drama about seeing the kids more and being more involved in their school activities...what BS! *Sigh* I'm kind of relieved, to be honest. I hope she never comes back.
LAST NIGHT I WAS CLEANING OFF THE TOP OF THE FRIDGE AND I FOUND A POEM THAT MY HUSBAND WROTE. IT WAS SOOOOOOOO SWEET. IT WAS A LOVE POEM ABOUT OUR MARRIAGE. WHEN WE FIRST GOT TOGETHER NEARLY FIVE YEARS AGO HE HAD WRITTEN ME A FEW BUT ITS BEEN YEARS. I WASN'T SURE IF I SHOULD TELL HIM I FOUND IT OR WHAT. BUT I COULDN'T HOLD IT IN. HE TOLD ME HE HAD WRITTEN IT THE NIGHT BEFORE WHILE I WAS AT THE BEAUTY SALON, AND THAT HE WANTED TO GIVE IT TO ME BUT HE WAS EMBARRASED. I FELT LIKE A LITTLE KID.
It's Friday at last! Yayy!
SD has orientation at her new school today. She's so scared about making new friends. I know she'll be fine.
Our old house has sold! The closing is today. That will be a huge burden lifted.
Bio-Mom is supposed to call or email to let us know her visitation intentions today. She says she wants to see the kids every Sunday afternoon, which is all her work schedule can accommodate. She's never been very good at sticking to scheduled visitation, so we'll see how long this lasts. TTFN!

Well..my X was supposed to pick up the 10 yr old for his weekend visit. Through the child, I was informed on Tuesday that x would be picking him up Thursday morning....2 days notice..
At the door ... x tells 10 yr old ..to take his bike..they're going away for 2 weeks!!!!
My hubby called me at work yesterday to tell me my son would not be returning home for 2 weeks
I was not informed..there was no arrangments made or notices given..the kid has 4 days worth of clothes ... to last him 2 weeks.
I called x last night....his phone was shut off!!!!
Well, I haven't written in a couple of days. My middle thru lower back have been stiff and painful because of the amount of lifting and chopping work I've been doing to get rid of that tree that fell over. I can't afford to just throw it away--wood is too valuable here in the wintertime.
I am a custodial stepmother to SS-15 and SD-12. It's one of the hardest jobs I've ever had. Some days can be very rewarding. But more often, I feel like the gum on the bottom of someone's shoe. I'm hated by many and appreciated by few. DH and I have been married for 8 years.
1. Never underestimate the power of a compliment.
"Every day, tell your partner about one thing they did that you appreciate. Everybody is quick to let their partner know what they didn't do right, and what made you angry. Make sure you balance this with what they do that pleases you. From the small things to the big things, the more you say 'Thank you,' the more of what makes you happy will come your way."
—Jane Greer, Ph.D., couples therapist and author of Gridlock: Finding the Courage to Move On in Love, Work, and Life
2. Sex: Just do it.
I am really glad I found this site.
OK not only have we had the drama with the first ex-wife and all of the court battles, etc, but now my hubby's second ex-wife is in the picture again. Hubby is at my dad's house mowing the lawn for him when his second ex-wife pulls up and starts talking to him as if they are long lost best friends. Mind you he has not seen or spoken to her in probably 13 years or more. They had no children together. Now here's the kicker, she invites him to her daughters going away party and he hasn't even seen her daughter in over 15 years.
