I posted a couple days ago about having to take younger SS18 to ER (he went by ambulance) and my DH, myself and SD17 were at the hospital while they ran tests. Well, SD17 texted her sister (SD22) that he was there, and then she was going to post it on FB -- so before SD17 posted it on FB i told her to let me text SS21 so he didn't hear about it on FB. So i texted SS21 about the incident at the ER, and SS21 called me while we were still at the hospital and i told him everything we knew. SS21 is at college which is almost 2 hours away, and he was wondering if he should drive down or not -- told him no because we were getting ready to be discharged.

So here it is, today, two days later, and i get a text message from SS21 this am -- he sent it last night at a little after midnight -- saying he would appreciate it if I would let him know next time when SS18 is sick or in the hospital, that he would rather hear it from me than on facebook. I was flabbergasted! The tone of his text was accusing like I was leaving him out. i even told him on the phone while we were at the hospital that if anything changed or if he got worse that I'd let him know.

So i texted SS21 back and basically said what the heck! Told him that SS18 had not been back in the hospital and had not gotten worse, and things were still the same and asked him what was going on. He said that he had heard that SS18 had gotten worse. I asked him where he had heard this from. i asked him if he had heard this from SD22 (which i think he did hear that from her, but won't admit it). He says facebook. I don't believe him, but whatever. i don't need this crap!

I'm getting it from SS21, SD17 (she's been pouting and ignoring me all weekend, which is fine, she can stay in her room so i don't have to see her crabby pissy face all weekend), getting it from SD22, and from SD22's boyfriend! i've had it with these skids and the people that go along with them!

So i told DH tonight what SS21 said, and his shoulders just slumped forward. he looked at me and said "what are wrong with my kids?" The reality of his kids is really sinking in -- i feel bad for him, but am also very glad that he is seeing the light of how they have been treating me for years now.

it just seems to never end with this drama -- one thing after another. Does anyone else ever feel that way. i feel like they only like me is when I'm buying them stuff, and they remember only the moment and not anything that i've done for them in the past -- all the things i've done for them in the past or the ways i've showed them I love them in the past. I feel like i have to start fresh every single day and every single moment with them. i feel like they are vacuums and they are sucking the life out of me.

For example, SD17's birthday -- i did more for her than i even did for my own daughter for her birthday. Got her flowers, balloons, a cake, a beautiful scarf, got her her ear pierced where she wanted it, took her to Red Robin with her friend and my daughter for milkshakes and appetizers, she got to go out to dinner again with her Dad and brother. And now she has been locked up in her room, shunning me for a couple of days now, all because of choices SHE made -- like she's punishing me! Forgets all the things that i gave her for Christmas. All the nice texts that i send her to let her know i'm thinking of her. The decorations I put up for her birthday. Coming to get her at the drop of a hat when she wants it. blah blah blah. Forgets all this crap ---- says all we ever do is yell at her. i honestly can't remember the last time we yelled at her.

She locked herself in her room and refused to unlock the door, so yes we did yell when she wouldn't open it. Then she opens the door and she is already yelling at us before we can even try to talk to her. She thinks that she is in trouble because we are mad at SD22 and we are taking it out on her -- think again little twit! okay, i've vented enough.....thanks for listening
