Well, I got my first batch of Christmas cookies finished. Stepson watched the Grinch while I was baking. Normally, he doesn't eat sweets before bedtime but since we were having a Christmas moment I bent the rules. Of course I made him choose a piece of fruit to eat first. Then he just HAD to have this sweet tart candy cane. It was blueberry and when he was finished with it, it looked like he had just eaten a smurf!!! He thought it was hilarious! Plus, he got to sample a cookie and he really liked it!
I’ve got one for you about schedule changing!
The blog posted by Janice/BIOMOM along with the comments that followed were both intriguing and thought provoking.
I have read all of your great points, and have to start by echoing what was said by Nymh...
This is where we come to vent.
And it has been very helpful and theraputic for me; this web site reflects a very narrow portion of who we are and what we feel (and even how we 'relate' to/interact with the ex's).
It's really not as much about 'bio mom's' as it is 'ex's' coming from their worst place: jealousy, rage, and revenge...
This incident was a couple of weeks ago, but it's just one example of the many thing I want to vent about....
SS is 5 years old and has PDDNOS....a spectrum of autism. He is not yet potty-trained, but BM reported in an email that she had him wearing underwear for roughly a week and he had been keeping them clean for the most part, and that she had him in Pull-Ups at night.
BM has called several times in the past couple of weeks asking for extra money to do this and that. I need some gas money, can you give me some spare cash to buy more presents with, I need some moeny to buy food on the way home, blah blah. The way BF makes it out is that she's calling several times a week, at first mentioning some trivial detail about SS so that her call doesn't violate the restraining order, but ultimately asking for more money. BF was just giving it to her to avoid a fight, but after he got that letter in the mail he put a stop to it!
I felt so bad for my boyfriend when his 9 year old son, told him that his mom cut his dads head out of their family picture (it was a picture of just him and two sons recently taken) and replaced it with her boyfriends head....and stuck it on the fridge for all to see...what kind of person would do this?
Well, no email from BM today (usually it is literally almost an every day back-and-forth battle between DH and BM) yet, so if she is ready to talk about this signing over of hubby's rights remains to be seen. I can't help but feel not only that this is just a game and she's not serious....I feel like she is trying to bait us and/or set something up.
I know why animals sometimes kill thier young!!
I'm looking for my pants this morning. I'm sure they were in the laundry yesterday. SSo I'm tearing the house apart looking for them...while my daughter is at the top of the stairs asking if we can leave early... HA NO! I have no pants!!! After 15 minutes..she says.."Oh I have your pants in my room..I took them out of the dryer by mistake..." Why didn't you put them back when you realized they weren't yours!!???!!!!!
Now I'm running late for work.....and I'm pissed...
I can't believe this but last night BF and I were having a really nice evening and we were talking and boom he says BM wants to know the plans for Christmas (which means here's what she wants to do and lets see how it fits into our schedule) "and I'm going to be with the kids on Christmas morning at her house!!!!!" Okay yes did I almost loose my cookies right there.....YES! Just like that no questions asked, no discussion ..boom boom I'm going there Christmas morning and that's that...I was so taken aback that I just blurted out "Wow do I feel left out"!
As most of you know, my ss is so spoiled, that it has ruined my inner desire to buy him too much. But nonetheless, I want him to enjoy Christmas morning, and every year it is getting more and more difficult. He already has guitar hero, an ipod, and a razor cell phone and would be enraged with anger if clothes were purchased for Christmas (although I might do that anyway). He has stated his mother is buying him nintendo wii for Christmas (which we are not interested in buying).
