Some one up above knows what it's like to be a SM

My prayers were answered. 2 of the skids WILL be gone for Thanksgiving, and the one staying behind holes up in his room, so I won't see him. Something to be Thankful for!

Granted, this came about as Loca Grande texted me at 1o minutes till 7 this morning. On a Sunday. The woman is crazy. She wanted Lazy Boye to stay for the week. Even though they are having Thanksgiving today, it is her holiday to have them Thursday. If he came home for school she wouldnt have money to come back and get him later in the week, so she wants to keep him.

Why does it bother me so much?

That when SD13 is asked about her family, she claims to have 4 brothers and 1 sister. Two of the siblings are her SF's kids, her SB15 and SS9. Her SB she sees fairly regularly when she visits BM-maybe once or twice a month, but her SS (both of them have different BMs-he has 3 kids, 3 moms)has an intellectual disability, was never legitimized so SF never has never felt the need to be a part of her life, he almost went to jail for not paying CS, SD13 has only met her 2x, and SS9 has lived in TX (we live in GA) for over a year, and SF just found out about it.

Oh, I just HAD to post this... sorry to be a blog hog! :)

Aw, isn't this sweet??? SD20 posted this as her status tonight on facebook. I was on DH's profile playing a game (I send myself stuff I need... LOL) and she had sent him a random chat message. I did not respond of course so I'm sure she knew I was on there. This popped up a few minutes later. I'm sure just another immature dig at me... which only proves that she hasn't learned a damn thing nor does she care to.

I'm trying to stay positive, but damn. :(

So today marks 1 month that I have been disengaged from my sk's. The first week was hard, but now I have so much peace and I am so much happier. I am looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas focused only on my kids... in fact, I'm excited about it! It's been YEARS since I could DO for them and not have to worry about being FAIR.

HELP!

How many of you step parents feel this way? My 2SD have lied about me to their BM and that side of the family and for a while now is starting to lie about mY DH. Then they come down here and tell us lies about that side of the family, once we found out what they were doing I can say we stop trusting a lot of what they said. On the other hand BM side still hangs on every word that they say, which is 95% of the time BS about me! So I have told my DH when they are here I'm not doing any extra and for sure NO fun!

sigh.....

I work 6 days a week, for the most part. It burns me up to come home on Saturday evening, to find SS10 and SD6 laid out in the middle of the living room floor, cheeze puffs adorning the carpet, plastic bags (their trailer trash mom's idea of luggage) thrown in the corner for all to behold and the stink of their self-importance filling my home...

I hate the sound of their whining and crying. I would rather be at work...

CRAP.. I should have known my plans would be ruined

Princess arrived home from college for the week. She tells me Loca Grande has decided to have their Thanksgiving tomorrow. So she'll go up there tomorrow and stay just a day with them. She probably won't want to go back, and then Lazy Boye won't have a ride there, so it looks like all the skids will be home for Thanksgiving.

:(

Last night I had a pretty intense dream. So much so that I have been in a foul mood all day.
I dreamed I had a baby with DH and it didn't matter if it was a boy or a girl - can you really tell with little babies? This is by no means a bad dream but in my dream, all the things I have read on ST happened with BM - as if having my own child caused BM to lash out. The nutcase BM who starts trying to get your DH's attention, turning your skids against you, etc.

Is there a forum for how to leave an abusive manipulator..follow up breakdown

He pokes me in the face and screams at me and tells me i control him and make him tell his daughter to eat fruit and I wont let him buy her new shirts...comes back one and a half hour later after taking her to Wal-Mart and buying her whatever she wants i am sure and getting cupcakes for her and says I love you...bla bla bla....I just told him I am in a no win situation and i have nothing to say...he says i act like my mom, i need help, i need to prove to his daughter that i like her. I told him I have nothing to prove to his daughter or him and again I have nothing to say.
