Okay, I need some input or advice! My mind is going crazy right now. I'm worried about surgery on Wednesday! Worried about my hubby and son and how they are going to be while I am down after surgery! Now, the ex-wife and her friends are causing trouble on my personal blog. (I think I mentioned this fact in another entry.) Anyway, they are threatening to contact DHS due to my letting my son read my blog. They are also threatening a slander lawsuit. First of all what kind of people can be so cruel?

For all who missed the stepfamily banter last night on Desperate Housewives, here is the exchange that had me cracking up!

Stepmom: There are plenty of things I’d like to say to you that I would never say…like “Shut up you frickin’ whack job!”…I’d never say that to you.

Biomom: So you think I’m crazy?

Stempom: No, I think you’re colorful…Colorful in a way that might respond well to medication.

I'm dating this guy who had 2 daughters...I have 3. I'm a little apprehensive about blending our families, but then, who wouldn't be??? We're not talking marriage anytime soon, but I'm trying to be as emotionally ready as possible when and if the time does come. His ex is not a nice person and has done some pretty scuzzy things to keep the kids away from him. It didn't work, but it has made his life very difficult at times. Any advice on dealing with psycho exes?

I am not a stepmom yet but it may be a possibility. I really do not think I can handle being one and I give a lot of credit to all of the stepmoms out there. I have been with a divorced dad for 7 years now. We were engaged but I got cold feet and put it on the back burner for awhile. It seems to me that his ex likes playing little games to annoy me and let me tell you, she succeeds all of the time.
