Well while on Spring Break with BM of the year, SD just posted on Twitter her new tattoo and belly button ring and nose piercing. Add that to all the other ear piercings she already had. Here is where I tell DH, I no longer ever want that in any family picture. I have not even done our family album on Shutterfly since the vacation she destroyed. I just don't have the heart to do it. I have done them for every family trip.

Everytime I think I can get past the crap she does, she does more!!! Not coming in my house and need to remind DH of that...He must be so proud.

I swear...SD18 turned 18 today and I am thrilled about it. Said something to DH last night and it went over like a ton of bricks. He made me feel bad for being happy about it. There was a time with all the court battles and BM crap where we were both fantasizing about this day. He feels bad that she is an out of control kid and his relationship with her sucks. I pointed out that is on BM and not him and this day gets us one step closer to never having to deal with BM again.

My husband is out of the country for the next week and a half. Communication is strictly Skype for 20 minutes given the time difference of 13 hours. And the last two times, he has been drunk because the Japanese executives insist on going out every night and it would be rude to not drink the sake....Whatever, he is vying for a promotion.

I told him everything about my conversation with SIL. He was upset and will be talking to FIL tomorrow. He was understanding as I broke down about this. I will never be able to understand a family that embraces the ex-wife and her new husband. Just so you can understand even further my husband's ex sued him about 2 years after the divorce that she didn't want his mom near his daughter or son. She had to pay for his lawyers fees but, she won and they were not supposed to be near the kids. Now 4 years later and she has needed somewhere to send my SD so they are fine now.
