Two positives though...
Two positive things happened during Princess's fit...
(See "Some Things are Private" for more info.)
1. When Princess flipped out, and started verbally attacking me, and went to take a swing at me, that's when Loghead stepped in. "My wife WILL NOT be talked to in that way in MY house. If you don't like it, and can't control your mouth, you can leave." He went on to remind her I'm the only other figure she's ever truly had, and that if I ever did anything, it was always with her best interests at heart...

Some things should be private
I won't go into a lot of details, but after a truly great visit with Princess this week, things totally fell apart tonight. We had a family gathering with everyone here, since over the course of the next week there are 3 birthdays in the family. Princess got angry before everyone arrived. She wanted to go back to school early tonight, to a party, and we told her no. She left in a huff anyway, later telling Loghead she was going to town to get a birthday card...

SD here for the night
So it is kind of interesting. SD graduated from HS and was very adamant to let it be known that she when she turned 18 she wouldn't be coming over for weekend visits anymore and she would let us know the holiday schedule. OK, whatever....please break my heart at that point she was more of a pain. The first year + of college we saw her 5 times total. DH might have seen hee a little more at SS ball games.

Not keeping SS12 during the summer.....I'll go on a summer long vacation first.
BEFORE Dh and I were married, I established clear boundaries that unless he was taking off work or using vacation time, I would not keep skids during summers ( I work from home). Although his divorce gives him the right to keep them 6 weeks out of the summer. As I gently explained BEFORE we were married the agreement you made with BM was just that.....between you and BM and I don't do babysitting.
So it has never been a problem until now.....he is suppose to let BM know my April 1st the date he wants skids....usually he just gets them one week and takes off work to do it.
Happy Birthday to you, you live in a --- you look a ------ and smell like one too
On your skids birthday, how do you feel??
A. Hooray, happy birthday, lets have cake and ice cream and lots of presents and enjoy the party. I can't wait.
B. Ugh, what's to celebrate? Let the skid's bio-parents deal with the fiasco. I'm going to the movies...alone!
C. Ugh, I dread this day all year. I will psych myself up, have an extra glass, or ten, put my pretend party hat on and gag my way thru the festivities.
D. Hooray, one year closer to college and one year closer to getting my house back. One down and --- to go!
Laying new groundwork
Princess spent the first part of her college Spring Break with my parents. It was kinda like boot camp, cause Dad got her up every morning, and had her doing chores and school work. He and Mom made a deal with her that if she shows them her grades each month, that as long as they are Cs and higher, she can earn $50. Dad is also going to look into getting her an internship at his company for the summer. She got a full tank of gas, and a huge paycheck for all the work she did!

Update
Hey guys
I haven't been on the site really at all in quite a while. Last I posted was in January right after SO left on an extended trip out of the country.
Just wanted to let you know that so far I'm doing fine, my pregnancy is progressing well, and I found out last Monday that I'm having a little boy!

Its not my fault that you chose a loser as a biomom for your son!!
Ohh this annoys me to no end. The income difference is HUGE in our house and Bio moms house where FSS7 lives. Not my fault she didn't finish school, and I completed my MBA. its by choice. I can therefore afford to look after my kids and provide for them a lot better. That's why I had my first kid at 29 and pregnant with my second at 33... While I had my nose in my books, BM was dangling her legs over mens shoulders.
o/t - some questions for people who are divorced..?
sorry all my blogs lately have been about divorce and all that, but I dont really know anyone who is divorced in my family and friends, since i am so young, alot of my friends are either married or engaged so no one I really know has been through a divorce.
so I just have a few questions for you guys:
Skid #2 is in Juvie
DH and I went out to dinner last night. Date night for us and considering the problems we have been having with skid#2 I had my brother come over and stay while we went out. He was also helping skid#1 with a new project. We were gone for an hour when skid#1 called us and said the cops were at the house we needed to get home.
