Death in the family
Last week SD's grandmother passed after a long illness. SD was with her as she passed and is doing remarkably well. They were very very close
The funeral is later this week. I will not be going. I will be babysitting all the grands. However DH and my daughter will be there for support.
A couple things. First mommy dearest is batshit crazy. She already asked about the will. (Grandmom has $$$$) We know some of the items listed in the will have been hocked by her and she is pointing fingers at daughter.
Second, since I am not there, mommy dearest will hang on DH. I am very secure with our relationship so I know he isn't interested. (plus he is oblivious to her)
I know I need to let this go but there is this little part of me that doesn't want her to think she scored points here. I know it will all be in her delusional head, but still...
Let her grieve. You may
Let her grieve. You may think you know this woman and her character but her mother has just died. Try to forget about her except for some feelings of compassion and sympathy. I know I would rather be the person staying home to babysit and worrying about thier husband than the woman attending her mothers funeral. I am sure point scoring will not be in her mind much if at all.
I would go with all the grand
I would go with all the grand babies just to tick off BM }:)
I wouldn't have agreed to
I wouldn't have agreed to babysit. I would have went with the hubby. But that's just me. Especially if u felt like BM would be hanging all over your hubby. It would bother me too. I think your feelings are valid. Does your hubby even need to be there. SD will have her mom there and her entire family I'm sure. Idk. Just a thought.
Yeah. I see your point:).
Yeah. I see your point:). It's a difficult situation..... I guess the stepmom just needs to suck it up as always. This is why I got out of my prior situation!!! Lol
