Victorian Bush Fires

I don’t know where to start. So much has happened in the last 1 and half weeks.
The last you guys would of read was that BM wanted to go to BF grandmothers funeral. Anyway long story short, she didn’t end up coming as she had to pick the skids up from school for us as our babysitter end up falling through.
Funeral went as well as what a funeral can be, but our devastation didn’t end there.

Latest from my last post - She passed away this morning.

After SS13 birthday party last Friday, BF asked me to stay until he came back from dropping off the skids to BM so we could talk. We spoke a lot, we both expressed how we were feeling and how a lot of the stresses around us such as BM, finances and my job just to name a few are affecting how we communicate, hence why there are so many arguments and the constantly going around in circles.
We are just taking baby steps for now, too many things to tackle at once.

And then….

BM Strikes Again!

For those who don’t remember, in October last year BF and I sat down and created a schedule for visitation. I have 3 ss’s, the younger 2 live with BM and middle of last year the eldest one (13) came to live with us.
Just like you all, I’m sick and tried of BM making up her own drop off and pick up times and days for whenever it suits her. So that’s when the schedule comes in.
BM wasn’t happy with the first or 2nd schedule, so it was redone afew times until there was an agreement.

SS13 - Report Card

It's been a while since the last time I was on here. BF and I had 3 weeks summer holidays which 2 of them were spent with skids. It wasn't as bad as I thought.

During the time off BF decided to show me SS13 end of year report card. He has just finished his 1st year of high school.
SS13 Report card only showed all C and 1 or 2 D. Not 1 A or B. Most comments from his teachers were that he is a well behaved student but his work especially homework needs more attention. He is only doing enough work to get him by.

Who buys gifts for BM on behalf on skids?

Long story short, I've been with BF for 4 years now and only the last two BM and been buying, b'day, fathers day and christmas presants on behalf of the skids to BF. (Before you ask, yes I was buying gifts from the skids to BF and actually had to return some cause BM started to get in before me, anyway so I stopped buying presants). On Christmas eve, BM asked BF where her presant is from the skids and BF laughed and said that he hasn't done that for the lsat 4 years, her come back was "well I havn't been causing you guys any trouble" WTF???

Thanks to all who PM me, it is so much appreciated.
It Monday morning here and I packed up and left Saturday morning (I never got rid of my little unit, so I was able to move back there). Spoken to BF a couple of times since. He doesn't even know what he wants anymore.
I told him that I'm willing to really try and make this work till the end of the year but his not sure.

Things Not Good - Ready to walk

KeepsGettingBetter's picture

I write this as I’m fighting tears that are just about to stream down my face.
I feel depressed, extremely unhappy, unworthy and just stupid.
Why on earth did I let myself get into this position. Enter into a family that was already started and that I had no part in creating. If only I knew how hard it would be.
It’s like I left my old life and joined BFs life. I lost all my friends (they all sided with my ex husband when I left him), lost my house (couldn’t afford to keep it at the time) and feel like I basically have nothing.
