OT-Vent

AshMar654's picture

I hate weddings. I mean I really hate them I never dreamed of them as a little girl never really gave much thought to them. I have been to several and managed to always not really be in the wedding party. I am grateful for. I am just not into any of it.

Well that's over!

This past weekend was an interesting one and heads up this might be long.

Started off with my younger brother's graduation, I am so proud of him and he is going to college and is just an amazing young man. I was never close or around much but since my dad passed I have been trying really hard to be there and text him to see how he is doing. I call him too. I hope our relationship grows.

Opinions Please!

Ok so this is really not about step situation but kinda, in a way.

My dad passed and we waited to have his memorial so that people could make travel arrangements and what not. End of this month we re having his service. Now my mom and him have were divorced when I was like 11 going on 12. It was not a good marriage.

One year as a SM

Well I am sitting here today reading and realize that the end of this week will mark one year of me, SO and SS9 living all together under one roof. I will say at times it was not easy and really has been challenging. The overall is it has been pretty great and I am happy. A list of random things this past year.

Rough Morning

I do not even know where to begin or what to do. I am in a hell of a mood and it is because of dealing with SS9. I know many will say let SO deal but that is not how we role in our home. We both deal with stuff with SS and both parent him equal. That is the arrangement we have and it works for us.

Ready for the In-Laws to head home!

All in all my in-laws being around the last few months has not been bad at all. It has been kinda nice to see them, it make sit so much better they are staying with their daughter. Trust me I would lose it if they were at my place. My MIL re-arranged her daughters dinning room switching tables and all this stuff while she was at work. I give to my SIL she has stayed calm and kept her cool.

They have been nice and pretty easy to deal with. I also am going with SS to visit them in July without my SO because he can not take off work. Anyway why I am ready for them to go home.

OT-Feeling Sad

Well I am feeling very sad and down today. We got the dog and have had her for almost two weeks. Unfortunately things are not going well.

Her and our current dog get along so great, two peas in a pod. She barks at the cats, she lunges at the cat, she stares in a very stiff manor. At first she ignored and things were great the first few days but as she is getting more comfortable she sees them through the gate she she lunges and barks at times.

We are adding to our family and In-laws due in 4 days!

Well things have quiet and good. Things have really started to mellow and just be a routine. I do miss time with my girlfriends but I have just been busy with my own stuff, with the skid, and SO had to work some overtime. Since it has been so quiet and easy we decided to add to everything and stir up some chaos....

Can you guess what it is....it was not planned.....I never thought I would want this......hey we figured why not.....

Ok Need some ideas!

I need some helpful tips here ladies and gents. My SS9 is your typical kid boy kid at this rate, he thinks farts, and bodily functions are hilarious. He wants to be a clown and joke all the time. We are getting a handle on and apparently is mostly around his one friend. Talked to the teacher came up with a plan and we think it is good and hopefully got a handle on it. There was some punishment about his report card and comments the teacher gave. Nothing too bad.
