It's been 4 short weeks since BM and stepdad split.

And surprise surprise she already has a new guy in the kids lives. Same old story different day. I've long ago lost count on how many men those poor kids have been exposed to.

When we pulled up to drop SS off on Friday, a strange black truck was in the driveway. SS said "oh no, this isn't going to be good". I told DH (after SS got out of the car) that she has a new guy in the house already.

And just like I expected, come Sunday when SS was supposed to be getting home, DH gets a text from BM. She had to work a double and DH needs to pick up SS. NOPE...One, she waited until 330pm to tell us she was working a double. Doesn't bother to say anything on Saturday....Two, she could have dropped him off before she went to work. Bars don't open early in the morning. Apparently, she tried to get stepdad to drop him off. He said no. Of course he did. I can't believe he dropped him off for her last time.

DH was stressed out because he knew that if he went to get SS, I would be mad. He's still unable to just say NO and let BM figure her shit out.

I told him if he is so stressed to go and get him. But THIS IS IT! If she wants to see SS she needs to come get him. That way when she flakes on bringing him home, at least we only made one trip.

And just like I suspected she didn't like that one bit. She was able to get a friend to bring SS home.

Oh, and when DH told her that he would do it but wouldn't be dropping him off anymore, she started the poor me routine. But, But...It's Mother's Day and her Birthday. Why can't DH just do this for her. It's her special day. He just replied, "Make sure your friend gets SS here soon, he has studying to do"

She also had skids out til 3am on Saturday at some restaurant/bar type place. SS was exhausted when he came home. Could barely keep his eyes open to study. He wanted to go to bed at 630.

She's back to not feeding them too. SS said all he ate on Sunday was a pack of ramen noodles. Nothing else in the house.

Right back to where she left off two years ago when she moved stepdad in the house as soon as she met him.

In the seven years that I have been with DH, she has never gone more than a month with a guy living in the house with her and the kids.
