It took less than a week for her to remind him of who he was actually dealing with. See blog http://www.steptalk.org/node/73520 for why he thought she changed.

During the first week of the Skids time with her, she…
-Told SO that the Skids were costing her too much money
-Asked SO to return CS to her so that she could afford to have them with her
-Lost SS’s bathing suit & didn’t bother to replace it

During the second week of the Skids time with her she…
-Told SO that the Skids were costing her too much money
-Told SO that the Skids were hampering her & XSD16’s time together
-Asked SO to return CS to her so that she could afford to have them with her
-Laughingly told SO about how SS9 (PDD-NOS) has been staying up til 4:30am watching cartoons (because it’s vacation, don’tcha know)
-Complained to SO about how much living in FL cost
-When her car broke down & she told SO that it was HIS job to help her pay for it because (yup, you guessed it) she is the mother of his children, he TAKES her money(CS)& because he is a man (luckily, her new BF stepped up & took SO's spot as a man & paid for the car repair)

After he picked them up from Nasty yesterday, both SS9 & SD8 complained endlessly about being tired (staying up til 4:30am every morning watching TV will do that!)…the stories that the Skids told were interesting to say the least.

According to SD8:
-SD, XSD16 & Nasty did LOADS of fun things together while SS was off on his own watching TV, playing legos or on his DS.
-SD was showering & Nasty climbed in with her saying that she NEEDED to wash SD’s hair…so there’s Nasty & SD8 showering together…then XSD16 climbs in there too! So SD8 said that she was being pushed into the wall by “butts & boobs” & that she didn’t want to tell her mom no because she didn’t want to make her mad.
-SD also said that every single night, she asked Nasty to turn the TV off but that Nasty said “No, you don’t have to sleep SD, you’re on VACATION!”
-All of SD’s hair things that we sent with her are GONE. SD asked Nasty to get her new headbands & Nasty told her that she had already spent too much on their visit & that she didn’t have the money but that her “other mom” (ME) would get some for her.

According to SS9:
-He was left on his own for the majority of his visit because the girls were doing “girl stuff”
-Nasty asked him if she could wash him during his shower...he said NO & locked the bathroom door (he's NINE!)

SO had to wash ALL of the Skids laundry yesterday because Nasty sent back everything we packed for their visit DIRTY &/or wet.

The Skids have complained endlessly about the possible lines at the Magic Kingdom (thanks Nasty & XSD!!!)...SO is there with them now at the Magic Kingdom...apparently they are enjoying themselves.

SO & the Skids drive back tomorrow so they will arrive home late tomorrow evening.

Hopefully, SO remembers all of this crap before he agrees to drive all the way to FL AGAIN next year.
