Ok so last night my SD (4 yrs old) seemed very upset and kept getting whiney and sad about weird things. For example we were at the barn and she was helping me with the horses (something she LOVES to do). She went out in the grass to play with our dog and came back into the barn crying and said she thought someone was going to run her over with a car.My truck was the only vehicle there and it was not going anywhere. So when we got back into the truck to go home she started to whine and cry again.

Well .. here's the latest "update". Since hubby hung up in my ear Wednesday and communication with him regarding SD has been basically impossible...I wrote him a 3 page letter and left it for him to read while I was at a ball game with my daughter(with SD coaching..I got silent treatment & dirty looks...I'll get back to that)

I had been trying to get through to her that things would be much easier if she would work with me instead of against me. When she would send me spiteful emails I would respond in an encouraging and positive way, explaining that this type of behavoir makes things harder and I am willing to cooperate with her to make things easier if she can basically get over herself and do the same. She spoke with a friend of hers (who happens to be a neutral party and therefore also a friend of mine), who told her that I was right.

I just get so bothered & irritated when we have to deal w/ex. Emailing my husband regarding son. Even though it's about just son, I for some reason get irritated. I don't want my husband communicating at all w/this woman. I get upset inside when I see these emails. I don't have much choice as to getting rid of her out of our lives. How do you guys deal w/this feelings/emotions?

My BF and I have been together for 18 months. We recently bought a house together and are extremely happy. The fly in the ointment is his ex. Her life is basically a train wreck and she is constantly making poor life decisions, which because of a 5 year old SD frequently ends us involving us too. Their 5 year old daughter is what forces us all to tolerate each other (who BTW is not his biological child, my BF found out 2 years after she was born - a whole nother long story).

Okay last week my stepsons mom called to ask if we could switch days days and times due to him starting school. We agreed. We usually have him on wednesday nights but had switched to tuesday nights instead. Well tuesday came and we completely spaced it out. We remember 20 minutes after we were suppose to pick him up. SO we called and apologized for the confusion and asked if we could come pick him up still. She said NO! And was rude to my husband. We did not want to fight so we asked if we could make up the time another night since she would not agree to let us get him that night.

So last time i posted things were pretty bad, I still haven't moved back in but i do spend most nights there. It's been 3 weeks and it's a world of difference. My BF doesn't have contact with Biomom at all, Biomom has been sticking to the court ordered schedule with no drama with that. But come to find out last weekend that she has not been buying this almost 2 year old no nothing. We buy the diapers cause she'll call when he's down to what ever can get him through the day and we'll go to costco and get the big box and send that over.

Princess is lying to her Daaaaaaaaaaad!

He talked to her she said..she "had NOTHING to do with my daughter batting..the other coach did the line-up & while she was saying .."I'M NOT taking the heat for this one."... she's now trying to distance herself..and look like the rose in Daddy's eyes..

My daughter also conveyed that SD knew she wasn't allowed to put her in the game...and the converstion actually went more like.."I'll take the heat" No, I'll take the heat" back & forth....

Hi

I spoke to my mother in law today and I had mentioned that I'll be throwing a bday party for my daughter. Her first question was are you combining your stepson's bday too w/hers? I said no, I don't want to have to deal w/his mother about sharing the party together. And plus I don't have enough room to add more guest to the list. I don't know what she is thinking...every year she asks me the same question and every year I tell her no. Am I missing something you guys? I don't think I should be responsible for throwing a party for my stepson...it's not my job to worry about that.
