The day started out the same as always, DH has learned to help me out with the kiddos in the mornings since he works late and is not here for bed times. I took SD to school and DH took BS to daycare. On our way to school SD doesn't talk or anything, like I said before, when I try to make small talk she shoots me down so I turn the radio on louder than usual to kinda cut the tension.

I have an SD10 who I think is on the spectrum, but then she does things that I don't think an autistic child would do. I am not a professional so I wouldn't know :?

I thought my SD and I were finally getting somewhat used to one another. Yes she still annoys the crap outta me, but I am learning how to live with it and not let it get to me. I think the reason she annoys me so much is because she looks JUST like her BM. Ohh well, I will learn to deal, but I thought we were moving forward. As I have posted before she calls me mom, I am the only SO she knows her BD with. My DH is never home, he works his ass off, and so the person that has always taken care of her has been ME and so she calls me mom.

So... things have been getting a bit better here at home with SD. She still expects things to get done, but since I found a place to vent I don't feel as resentful towards her as before. Yesterday was funny, DH has been working late and it has been me and the kids... alone! :jawdrop: I worked until late yesterday and so on the way home I picked up dinner, I don't really like to eat out :sick: , I much prefer to cook, call me crazy... so when the kids, SD10 & BS4, and I are eating dinner she starts with her: "well, I think that you should cook Mexican! I mean, you are Mexican...
