I am truly an idiot.

So Polyanna has had her eyes opened. I can't believe I thought it could be different. SO and I were having a nice cocktail in the sunshine on the patio of a favorite pub in our neighborhood. SD10 was at the clubhouse of the HOA having supervised play time with the neighbohood children. You'd think she could handle it, but more and more I'm convinced that she lacks the social skills to get along with other kids and gets her knickers in a knot waaaaaay too easily.

Nipped it in the bud and feeling pretty smug!

First kind of pissed with SO and then proud of him for seeing! I made a huge, delicious chowder yesterday. SO and my boys just love my homemade soups, stews and chowders.

SS18's gf was here and we had SD10 for the night. I texted SO about dinner, wondering if he wanted the chowder or if skids were hoping for taco tuesday out.

SO and SS18's GF both texted me at the same time saying. "I want chowder!"

then it went south.

Text SO to me: Um, SD10 won't like that though.

I'm Baaaack!

Hello ladies.

Well, I've done it again, against my better judgment and I've been taking it very slow, but guess what? This just might work!

I met a man who has three kids. Two grown sons, the 18 year old works where I work and I just adore this kid! The older one I have met once and he is a nice young man.

Punctuation laugh

An English professor wrote the following words on the board and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.
"A woman without her man is nothing"

All the males in the class wrote:

"A woman, without her man, is nothing."

All the females in the class wrote:

"A woman: without her, man is nothing."

Punctuation is powerful

Made me wonder. Why is it that the BMs make such a mess of things and undermine us at every turn? How many of us are BMs as well as SMs and don't really have that problem with XH or his SO? My XH used to be such a shit, but DS is his own man. He loves his father, loves his mother, has no real issues with either. His dad used to badmouth me to him. I stayed out of that game, but we all get along pretty well after 8 years of that and our son is doing great.

No longer on the fence. It's over.

BF had his horrible daughters this week and I told him last week that I would see him on Christmas. He insisted that it didn't have to be that way, that he wants to be together. I know he wanted to bring them to my house, but I really don't want them there and I have to work all week while he takes vacation and entertains them with movies and dinners out. Then oldest one (almost 19) thinks she's his wife and the youngest one (7) gets treated like she's 30 and acts 3. I can't stand them.
