So I live in Mass..and there is a program on the table since 2006 that is now undergoing fire because they want more funding for it...basically welfare receipients get free donated cars , welfare pays the insurance, AAA coverage for a year so that the recipient can get a job...after the year they can keep the car regardless of whether they have a job or not....here is a link to more info:

So FH has to bring SS5 to a dr checkup at noon. I asked FH if he wanted me to go..he said no..it's ok I don't want you to miss your lunch break. (it was just a checkup to check his weigh as he isn't gaining any weight and he's underweight)...so about 12:20 he texts me that SS5 gained a lb and that they are leaving now and he is dropping SS5 at daycare now. THAN I get another text that BM was there with SS2..and that FH had NO idea she was going to be there and that coincidentally SS2 had a dr. checkup too!!! Oh wow..how lovely!!! ARRGGH..

I couldn't think of a better title?

It goes to show that even though WE as SM's (& SD's) are painted to be evil...there ARE times that it is discovered that we were right all along.

Once upon a time I was deeply in love with a man that had a SS(who was 7 at the time) and he had a WICKED BM that self admitted that because my Ex left her when there son was a baby that she would never let him find peace.

It wasn't just the BM that was a nightmare though..the SS was spoiled rotten by dad and babied by mom...

I came into work this morning to find this past's weekend's Sunday engagement section on my desk. There was an engagement announcement of FH and I. I think his mom sent in the info., I'm not sure as I haven't had a chance to talk to her yet.

But it made me smile. It's the first time I had an "engagement" announcement and I feel like a little girl planning her "big day"..even though I'm not planning on having a big wedding, a ceremony on the beach in Jamaica is what we want.

I just thought I'd share my happiness..

I wonder if BM will see it..LOL!
