Las Tres Diablaszilla Harpies are at it again with the manufactured drama

Elea's picture

BM lives in another state from us. BM currently has SD25 living with her and SD27 is there for a visit. Keep in mind that all 3 of these characters are college graduates. (On DH's dime)

OSD called to tell DH that all 3 of them are fighting. BM and YSD are HITTING each other and YSD is hitting OSD! BM, being the big, lying, manipulator POS that she is claims that her hand just "flies up and accidentally hit" YSD. Lol

BM and OSD are trying to get DH involved in problem solving the situation. Lol Again, they are in a different state and this is happening AT BM's House.

The world revolves around SD and we are teaching her that every day!

I'm not even really sure where to begin. I am easily annoyed… Or triggered? My SD7 is sweet, funny, kind intuitive and also spoiled. There are times that she gets quiet usually when we're riding in the car and she stares out the window. I myself am a very introspective, self reflective, quiet person as is my SO. 
However there seems to be this need of my SO to incessantly check on my SD. 
 

SS12 Got A Cell Phone

CastleJJ's picture

SS12 told us he was getting a cell phone at Christmas, but during our call tonight, he told us he got one on Labor Day after leaving our house. Surprised he didn't mention anything for almost a week despite us calling last week. He happily took down our phone numbers, adding them to his contacts, and sending a text to both DH and I. 

I asked what happened to the GPS tracking smartwatch. He said they turned it in when they bought the phone. Thank God, although I'm sure BM and GF will have a tracking app on the phone so it will likely make no difference. 

Disneyland Parents 18+ year bid….

Lillywy00's picture

Just love how these Disneyland parents chose the most personality disordered people to procreate with, then instead of turn things around for the better, they expect you as a stepparent to come in and not only accept the dysfunction of their parenting /co-parenting style but also expect you to deal with the chaos and decrease in lifestyle satisfaction as well

No mfs!!!

YOU handle your 18+ year bid and everything that comes along with it. 
 

I didnt procreate with your beastly breeder so I'm not suffering those consequences for many years like you are.  
 

Has anyone read the book "Baby Teeth" and recognized the dumb daddy dynamic?

Shieldmaiden's picture

I recently read the book "Baby Teeth" by Zoe Stage, about a 7 year old girl that is a sociopath and tries to kill her mother several times. The father in the story totally fits the "oblivious disney dad" role. I kept having flashbacks to my own experience as a stepmom to three SD's who were being alienated from us by their Bm and turned suddenly cold towards us.

Disgusted-Not Step-Related-Long post.

Rose_Pedal's picture

Sorry for the non-step related post but I have to get this off my chest and besides my husband I have no one I can share this with because of the nature of the situation.

As some of you know from my past blogs my mom is very ill. We have almost lost her several times this past year. I caregive for her 24/7 after moving her into our home back in March. (Mind you I just had my brand new baby in May and I also work.)

BM’s Pyrrhic Victory

Toaster's picture

In another post, MorningMia wrote: DH eventually began to see his kids for who and what they are and finally accepted that they would never have the relationships he expected. He said in a sarcastic tone (as if, "big deal"), "She (BM) WON!" lol. 

A Pyrrhic victory is one that is achieved at a great cost, resulting in significant losses for the victor and making the victory unworthy. Our not-so-beloved Crazy BM has a habit of winning Pyrrhic victories.

Au revoir!

la_dulce_vida's picture

Today is the long awaited day! This evening, I'll be on my way to Provence via Iceland, Paris, and Avignon. Planes, trains and buses.

My two good friends will arrive today and I'll catch up with them tomorrow. We'll spend 4 days walking trails around Provence, then next Friday, my one friend and I will head to the Atlantic Coast of France going back through Paris, to spend a week in her cottage.

I'll be renting a bike and getting in my miles exploring the flat coastal area during my 2nd week. *squee*
