And the pile gets deeper....
So this weekend I hear a very disrespectful message on our answering machine from the pothead alcoholic SS21. It was aimed at me, of course. I immediately replayed the message for DH (who agreed that it was disrespectful) and said, "This is exactly that kind of crap I am sick of dealing with. So you deal with it."
Mind you, I haven't even spoken with SS21 or seen him since last August.

Is DH strong enough to withstand the pressure from his adult kids?
So I have to hand it to DH. He's actually been cutting down on giving our money to his 5 adult children. I can see how hard it has been for him to turn down their incessant requests for money, but he's been strong. So far.
But, like any addiction, it's a slippery slope and getting more slippery all the time.
Happy *others Day to me I suppose
I am renaming Mothers Day "Others Day" because once again, I have been ignored by my DH. No card. No "Happy Mother's Day" in the morning. No kiss. Nothing.
I suppose this day is for Others, and not me.
This morning I got up to mow the lawn (big lawn), because it needed mowing and I knew DH wouldn't do it. DH slept in, of course. Yesterday he had started the mower, and announced to me "that it runs." I suppose that was a hint...?

We are going broke and DH won't stop spending on his adult children
I am now suffering anxiety attacks at night because our financial situation is so grim. I can't sleep, and my hair is falling out. Although I do love my DH, this money situation is taking us down and I am seriously considerng getting out of my marriage so "grim" doesn't turn into "grimmer."
Taking a ride on the parental guilt express
For context, here's what my DH's adult children are up to since we've kicked them out of the house:

Skid abuse and the toll is takes
This is the busy time of year for me professionally, so all I've had time to do is lurk. SOo many times I want to respond, but just don't have the time! Pretty soon you'll hear more from me, whether you like it or not...;-)

Easter....UGH
So DH and I have been summoned to his sister's house for the annual Happy Family Bullshit Easter Dinner.
Frankly, I'd rather stick a pencil in my eye.
DH's sister will serve up a dish of snarky put-downs along with the ham, and we'll be forced to sit at a folding table with the two adult brats (SD18 and SD24) who we recently kicked out of our house. Oh, this will be a good time for all.

SD18 won't come back! Joy!
I am doing the Snoopy Dance today!
SD18 called her father yesterday and announced that she is not returning to our home because it's a "hell hole" and she doesn't think she owes us any explanation or apology for breaking into our personal property in search of cash while we were away.
Oh, and did I forget? The whole situation is ALL MY FAULT too!

Crime and Punishment for SD18
So this past week DH and I found out that while we were away for the weekend, SD18 decided to break into our bedroom and try to pry open the locked cabinet in my closet. When I discovered the lock that didn't work and the pried door, I was LIVID! I had to leave town on business, and I asked DH (demanded, really) that he take care of the situation.

It's all my fault (again) -- but it's the last time
So the irresponsible bitch SD24 was pulled over a couple of nights ago--she has been driving with a unregistered car, no insurance, and a suspended license. Of course she called DH in the middle of the night to come "rescue" her, and of course he did. Pronto!
But before he left the bedroom he made a point to yell (yes, yell) at me that SD24 getting pulled over is all my fault. His logic is that I was the one who took her off our family insurance when she moved out, and had I not done that, none of these unfortunate events would be happening to his precious adult brat.
