DH lost his job

misguided's picture

My DH lost his job on Friday and still has not told his ex. I am really upset and hurt. It's like he doesn't want to stress her out but has not problem stressing me out. I am the one who is going to have to pick the mortgage (which he currently pays). I will not pay child support and he knows that so why he is waiting is beyond me. He finally went down to unemployment today and is going to court to modify his child support based on what his unemployment check will be. I feel like telling her myself but I know that would be wrong and possibly cause more problems but this is BS.

FSS8's "Birthday" Dinner tonight

Y'all, I just don't want to go!

Every Wednesday, when FDH has FSS8 for 5 hours, my FDH says "let's go out to eat, FSS8 will like to eat Mexican/Buffalo Wild WIngs." Every Wednesday...same places. I'm over them. Not only does it teach FSS8 that when he comes over, we'll go out somewhere to eat (which causes a problem on EOW if we DON'T go out Friday and Saturday night as well), tonight I just don't effing want to go.

Where have I been?

Sorry for my somewhat extended absence. I have been busy closing on a new house, moving, unpacking, setting up the home, getting all of the utilities turned on, etc..... My bride has been the one to do these types of things until now. She recently started with a new firm and I have been in Houston for several months before she got here so this time it is all on me to get everything turned on at the house.

A few weeks ago, SS had a HS dance. BM and DH went to go take pictures of SS at his GF’s house. While there, SS asked to have a picture with BM and DH at the same time. (I was not there)

Let me clarify, that I am ok with this. I can understand him wanting to have a picture of him, and his bio mom and bio dad.

Well, we had an issue this weekend where SS was a butt and I got him in trouble with his dad. My bad. lol

Shared a funny moment with BM last night

We had the skids last night and SD told us that she had to wear a coat and good shoes tomorrow (today) because they were going on a little field trip, and that her teacher told them to be prepared. I realized she had come to our house with flip flops and no coat because it was a nice day yesterday. DF called BM to see if she'd bring over the shoes and coat. Day care had also asked us where the shoes were for SS3 that "fit" because BM had squeezed his feet into a pair that were way too small on him. Miraculously, BM had no problem bringing over the stuff!

Back CS question

My fiance and I are getting married in a month. BM hates me for no reason and has been talking bad about me to future SKids. To the point where FSD asks me why her mom hates me, she doesn't even know me??? I explained that she hates my role in her life and it really has nothing to do with me as a person. I feel really bad for the kids, because it seems like they like me, but they often do not involve me in their conversations with FDH, they are very private, but polite.

My DH's Strange Behavior

So this weekend was a bad!! We met with the SS22 and SD16 to find out why they don't clean their rooms and that was a nightmare. My DH basically told them that I pay bills here and they need to expect that I want things a certain way -- clean rooms. SD16 responded,
"They are OUR rooms."
Okay folks, do you think if the kids have their own rooms they're free to do what they want in/to those rooms?

SS22 said he pays the cable bill, so why does he have to do anything else? OMFG!!!!

OT- do you have any pets?

If so, what kind of pets?

Growing up, I had 3 Dutch rabbits and they were wonderful. They were so adorable! 2 of them lived to be 10 and the other lived to be 11. I was their main caretaker. They were so kissable and lovable. I was very attached to them.

Now I have two rescue dogs. One is a naughty, lovable chocolate lab/German Shepherd mix. He's really smart and we rescued him when he was a little pup. His name is Aslan.

Our other one is a beagle-terrier mix. I really, really love my animals. I consider them and SDs to be my kids, and I count them as people!

The BM is ‘in my house’ every night!

SD9 has been visiting for 2½ months and talks to BM every night on Skype. DH brings his laptop in from the office every night and sets it up in ‘the sun room’, with an open view of the lounge and kitchen (entire living area). I got so sick of listening to BM’s voice every night and basically having her in my house, (she even commented on DH’s weight once: saying to SD to tell him to do some exercise) that I’ve started taking my DD2 and going to the bedroom when ‘The Skyping’ starts.
