We have to alternate for Halloween with BM2. The older kids with BM1 can do what they please each year they are big enough to decide and we have them fifty so its all nice and easy with them. BM2 already starting crap about Halloween this year! It is the first of the month wtf is wrong with her?? So here is the past two Halloweens in a nut shell.

Two years ago BM2 had the kids for the 31. It was her turn. We asked her if she would send their costumes after halloween as we would be taking all the kids to our area trick or treat which was the next weekend. She flipped her shit sending many texts and emails about not sending "her" costumes to our house, she had paid for them and wanted them back etc. Who cares her day with them would be over by then! They are not "hers" they are the kids! We do not steal from the kids! We would have sent them back! Dh pays tons of support so who cares about two cheap costumes?? She does apparently! Sending emails that were like "fuck you bitch get your own costumes!" Fine! So we did that. She sent a text after picking up kids that they were miserable and hated the costumes we chose. Weird they chose them for themselves stupid! She also told kids how terrible we are for not calling htem that day to wish them luck trick or treating. What a bitch!

So last year was our turn. Our order stated we would pick up kids at her home. She was not there at the correct time we waited for fifteen minutes for her, where was she? At her moms! Putting costumes on them! What? We told her many times the kids had costumes at our home and they were excited to wear them! She insisted on putting make up and hair on both kids before sending them to us already late and made up! She wanted them to wear what she chose, and tried to force our hands! She is a witch! And attempts to control everything. We told kids to wear what mom sent or change at our house quickly no matter to us. Both chose to change. We got an email as soon as they returned home about how we forced them to change. Grrrr!

She has already sent an email reminding us it is her turn! We already know, we are not stupid. DH did not respond. She continued to email and bate through out the day until she received a short WE KNOW already email back from dh. So from there she kept it up, letting us know she would use "her" costumes. Ok great do it! We dont care! No response so she sent an email about the costumes she bought while kids were at school, who does that? She shops clearances and discount shops, so kids always just get whatever she can find. She got SD a costume fit for an infant! Think nursery rhyme character for a grade schooler. Poor sd going to be pissed. Oh well thats not our fault! She also went on to say that if we go to a halloween event during our time, she would like to know before hand! Why?? Just to start shit I guess! No one is responding to her shit or informing her ass of anything! We dont care what stupid games she wants to play, we are NOT going to play with her. We will go to events and the kids will be fine and have fun. Nothing she does will force us to respond! We dont need to! I can come her and vent all I want and DH can vent to me. We do not need to deal with her meltdowns and weird plans! She loves to have holidays with kids, so do we. We never interfere with her time. But if she does a holiday and we have them after she loves to call them off school and with holds them from us saying they are too sick to come over, in case we would like to do something fun with them. It is awful!
