As you know we decided to do Christmas early this past weekend since we're pretty sure we're not going to see SD again before January. This is fine with me because I want to limit people we see due to covid. 

My husband shopped for SD off of a Christmas list that BM gave him but this was apparently BM's list and SD was preparing a separate list for DH. She was pretty upset that we got some things off of BM's list though it was a pretty long list already. My husband was not happy about the Christmas list greediness and I actually overheard him talking to one of his friends on the phone about how SD was being brat over the weekend. I seriously love him more when he feels the same way about SD that I do! 

DH never gets SD on Christmas or on her birthday so he never gets to watch her open presents on an actual holiday. Most of the time he just sends them to BM's house. This past weekend was a chance for him to actually see her open her presents. However she refused to open all of them but he got her to open one. She then proceeded to act like she was pretending she won an Oscar. It was the most awkward and transparently fake display I've seen in a long time. She kept saying "I don't know how to act" in a fake accent while pretending to be gracious? It was so bizarre. After that I think my husband was totally fine with her just opening one present. I don't even know what to make of her overly dramatic behavior does anybody else have a tween girl that acts that way?

As she left she said "I'll be sending you my OTHER list soon." Yeah sure you do that just don't be surprised if you don't get anything off of it.
