Someone said they thought I'd cry when I left my SD at the dorm on Sunday. No. Hell, I don't think the "happy" smile has left my face yet!

I am a single mom of one a daughter, she is 8 years old and will be 9 in a few months. I have been with my fiance for 3 years and he has a daughter that is 5 years old and she will be 6 in a few months. My daughter adores my fiance and loves his little girl, she calls her a sister. They fight like normal kids but nothing to bad. Well I just found out that the 5 year old has been telling her mom and her grandma that me and my little girl is mean to her. Of course my fiance knows this to not be true since he is around the whole time.

i got my hair cut this morning, and went to a new person/salon to get it done. i wind up trying new places all the time, because apparently its really easy to butcher my pixie cut, and i end up looking like a angry toddler. so i meet her and we talk, and of course the conversation turns to family....and i tell her a bit about mine. she says i look tired and down, which i do.

Back from vacation and it was WONDERFUL! I did miss H very much though and I know the boys missed him and he missed us very much too!

About three weeks ago, DH's kid asked him about school clothes this year. He gave her a budget amount and said he'd be happy to take her during her last week of summer visits with him.

His kid sends him a text last Wednesday. This long, drawn out story about how some of her friends and their moms are going to a large mall together, her mother will be going too. His kid asked if he would send her the money he promised her ASAP so she could go.

I asked...what did you send back to her?

Well, the skids will be at home when I get off of work today. I am dreading it, although they are decent kids. I guess it's just the outsider feeling I always get when I walk into my home and they're visiting. I don't really know what to do with myself, and I know my SO is torn between wanting to spend his time with his kids, and trying to make me happy as well. In some ways I think he has it harder!

So BF and I just had skids for... 7 days, they were with bm one night, and now we will have them again from today till thursday.. Well yesterday we dropped skids off to bm, when we got there, she wasn't there.. I had sent her a message tellin her what time we would be there when she was sayin how much she missed her babies!!! Well we wait out in the hot ass sun for bm to get there.. She pulls up with her boyfriend and gets out.. And she has her back in a greasy ponytail, and a long tshirt on that says "BADASS" and....

So..as we always do, every summer we rent a cabin in some remote place and take the kids out for a good old fashioned family vacation...and every year I say.."Never Again".

....and so it starts. We picked her up on Sat. and we were told how she was caught stealing and lieing at BMs. and after the year we had with her before she went to BMs for the summer, my BF had a talk with her about how he would not put up with that behavior do you understand? She very sweetly replies Yes daddy. Well my daughter the very next morning not even 24 hrs later descovered she stole from her. My daughter knocked on her door and asked she ofcourse lied. We then told my BF what was up and asked him to go talk to her and search her room.

I dont have the word for word text, but bf picked up kids at school on friday.(he returns them to school on Mondays every week) The text continued into last nite and are still coming this morning and afternoon. Most of the weekend text were to bash me and my bd6 . And to repeat word for word what the divorce decree stated about the kids and assets etc.
Today she is sending him text telling him she has tracking devices on the 2 oldest kids phones and hounding him about where they stay when they are with him.
