Guilty

I'm guilty of doing something that a lot of people talk about on here.  My SO told me something last night that bothers him about my kids and I made excuses for them.  We talked a little more about it this morning.  He said he was just not going to bring it up anymore (cause it bothers him but not me).  I thought about all the advice I've seen on here and realized how guilty I was.   I told him not to just hold it in....if he can "disengage" and let it roll off his shoulders then ok.  But if it really bothers him, I don't want it to cause resentment.  

I just got this text from BM (sorry for lack of her puncutation, etc)

I am at a loss.  We had a good weekend - spent a few hours with SD18 on Fri having a quick bite to eat, talking and laughing.  Then she spent most of Sat at our house.  I went out with girlfriends for a few hours and she & SO baked cookies & watched movies.  She has horrible looking burns on the back of her hands and arms from rubbing salt & ice on them and erasers.  She gave no real reason for doing it but we talked about lots of things this weekend.  I asked to please call us when she's feeling down before she starts doing that stuff to herself.  She said she would.

Happy Happy Joy Joy

SO is officially divorced!!!!  As a reminder - he thought this was taken care of 10 yrs ago (per his atty, he was "all set" and he moved across country and never gave it a 2nd thought).  Turns out BM never signed the papers back then cause she thought they would eventually get back together.   Back to present day - SO did lots of research, got the correct forms, filled everything out himself.  Clerk called him twice to fix docs - he resubmitted twice AND had to go to a parenting class one Saturday.  During one of the calls from the Clerk, he told SO that BM called when she got notice of the

Very much off topic

Sorry but I'm sitting here at work in tears and need to vent.  I just read the story about the dog that died after the owner was forced by the airline to put it in the overhead bin.  A 3 hour flight!!   I love animals (more than people believe me) and this hurts me to my soul.  How could anyone be so cruel.  Tell you what......if it were me and I had to take that flight....my dog would've been out of there once we were airborne.  And I would've dared that flight attendent to come at me!  I am so outraged right now. 

This past weekend

Well, BM did show up to SO's nieces birthday party.  My stb SIL called me earlier to say she was coming and that her daughter felt put on the spot when BM asked if she could come.  She was also concerned that I would think she invited BM.  We were bowling and had 4 lanes.  I stayed on one side and BM & SD16 stayed on the other.  SO called out to SD16 but she shook her head no and went over to BM and leaned up against her - buried her head into BM like a freaking 2 yr old.  He ignored it and we continued bowling and laughing.  SD16 finally went up to SO and talked to him - I didn't liste

Previous blogs had been about what a terror SD18 was - but since moving out of BMs house, she has done a complete 180.  I enjoy being around her again.  Now, BM is all focused on SD16 who was previously no trouble at all.  She even said she hated the way SD18 was behaving and treating their dad.  Well, SD16 is not talking to SO and hasn't come over in months.  She's supposed to be with us EOWE.  Her "anger" stems from a lousy $150 that he put in a savings acct for her.  She's mad that he won't give her the money.  But - we know its all BM putting her up to it - SHE wants to get her hands on

Is it petty of me to laugh about this?

Plans for our summer wedding are in full force.  SO's son lives across country and his ex-girlfriend booked their flights so his son can be in the wedding.  He gets along with his ex and she & I have been friendly too.  No problems there - she is a sane, normal BM.  She will also attend our wedding with her husband and daughter.  When SO & I were sharing our excitement about it, I realized that BM1 (the nutty one) will be PISSED that the ex-gf will attend our wedding and she'll be left out in the cold.  I literally busted out laughing.  The ex-gf is the one he took up with after he

Last I knew, BM was seeing this guy (my future SIL referred to him as the little fella). Just found out last week that BM has a new guy. She was with the little fella in Dec so this new guy could only have come around in the last couple of months. Anyway, she knows SO and I are planning our wedding. SD18 told us that BM and the new guy were looking at engagement rings. LOL - it kills her to know that SO is happy and has someone who truly loves him. I won't be surprised if she rushes down to City Hall to marry this guy she barely knows before we get married. LMAO
