Maybe SD is growing up....

lovin-life's picture

Just a little observation from Monday night. Youngest SD & finance were over helping set up a surround sound system. SD had just baked a pie and brought some over... While we were downstairs..she went upstairs and fixed up plates of pie.forks..and brought them down for everyone. (Pie was delicious too) So later she's gathering up the dirty plates *shock* (as Fearless might say) to take them upstairs & put them in the dishwasher... Dad JUMPS up to take the first one from her and says "I'll get those!".. She insists on doing it herself!!!

X's = pain in the A$$

X's are a pain in the A$$! I get 2 hours notice that x has decided to move his Wed visit to Tues!!

Son has a wad of birthday money....he just got..good tmime Dad always seems to seize the opportunity to take him out shopping to blow all of it on video games. Which I end up stuck policing on a daily basis...
(Daddy's seen as the good guy who buys them..and I'm seen as the bad guy who takes them away or limits them!!)

My son's in band this year...last year X rented the instrument, etc for our daughter..so he is doing the same for son.

ADD

I can't find where we discussed the possible causes or contributers to ADD.....but I just wanted to tell everyone about this book... It's called ..Healing ADD by Daniel G. Amen MD. It's one of hundreds of books on the subject.....and everyone claims to be an expert...with completley different theories & appoaches...so you have to keep that in mind when you read about ADD....but I did find this one interesting.

My daughter is a step daughter..I have to pick her brain

My daughter is a step-daughter (common-law) and as her Bio-mom and his X..it gives me a slightly different perspective than when I'm on the recieving end as a step-mom. My daughter did an "all about me" assignment which I looked over this morning. She listed me,dad, sDAd, brother, 2 Ssisters and her dog.......she did not include Dad's live-in GF (1 1/2 yrs now) common-law spouse. Everyone else was there and she was quite obviously excluded!! (Welcome to my world as a SM)

Peer Group..?

Well we have another "grown-up" function coming up on Saturday..the usual group of Fire Fighter association members, (will also include many of our card playing/dart group as some are members & some will be guests).

Guess who invited SD & fiance....? He is the ONLY one who invites his children to these adult/peer/co-worker functions.

I thought given the recent trouble .. that it could be a night for US to get out, socialize with our peers...

SD respects me?....wake up DAD!!!

Well, wasn't sure if this was a good idea or not..but I did it anyway. I like to check my facts. ..so I e-mailed SD's former high school boyfreind..with a couple of questions about SD. I told him that her Dad thinks she "respects" me ...but I feel that is not the case and asked him what he knows.

He said that she would make remarks about me all the time to him..but he can't remember specifics.. AND he said he thinks she would go behind my back in a second because thats what she does to everyone else....

Very Interesting........huh

I think Hubby may have been the Liar...not SD.

Well .. here's the latest "update". Since hubby hung up in my ear Wednesday and communication with him regarding SD has been basically impossible...I wrote him a 3 page letter and left it for him to read while I was at a ball game with my daughter(with SD coaching..I got silent treatment & dirty looks...I'll get back to that)

Princess is lying to her Daaaaaaaaaaad!

Princess is lying to her Daaaaaaaaaaad!

He talked to her she said..she "had NOTHING to do with my daughter batting..the other coach did the line-up & while she was saying .."I'M NOT taking the heat for this one."... she's now trying to distance herself..and look like the rose in Daddy's eyes..

My daughter also conveyed that SD knew she wasn't allowed to put her in the game...and the converstion actually went more like.."I'll take the heat" No, I'll take the heat" back & forth....

What is SD's problem.....Dad too!!

If a kid had a broken leg & recently got the cast off, was still limping.. was instructed by the parents/doctors to not run on the leg until after the final x-ray... Most people or a sports coach wouldn't have a problem respecting the parents wishes & doctors orders RIGHT!

It would be absolutely irresponsible to do otherwise!!!!
