When will this get easier, if ever? When will Stepmother's stop getting the shitty end of the stick? This has been going round my head constantly as we have his little darlings (!) up for the beginning of the Easter Holidays. (They have only been here 6 days and I am already incandescent with rage for no specific reason - hiding in our bedroom drinking gin!)

I have 2 smelly step-daughters (11 and 10) and one freak of a stepson (14) who is seriously needing to be diagnosed properly with some sort of syndrome. He fits every criteria, even my DH agrees, sadly his dumbass Bio-mother thinks there's nothing wrong with him. (Eh - come on love, get real? There is something seriously wrong with him - he has dead eyes!)

I tried really hard in the beginning (didn't we all!) but now I just can't be arsed. I truly hate them. I see the car roll up and feel sick with disappointment that I am going to be stuck with these little fuckers again for another weekend. They smell so bad, their Mother doesn't believe in regular hygiene. All they do is eat us out of house and home, they are messy and disrespectful. Sometimes I can't even put my finger on why I hate them some much, I just do - they are interlopers in my house and I don't like it.

Apparently now they all have school trips coming up and want me to pay for it as I'm the main breadwinner - well they can roundly fuck off. Their Mother swans off on foreign holidays twice a year she can pay for them to go where ever the fuck the school has decided to send them this time. (See I don't even know, terrible step parenting at it's best!)

I have my suspicions that the boy and youngest girl aren't even my DH's. But he wouldn't even entertain the idea of a DNA test which is unfortunate as I may be putting up with two children (especially the one who is deranged...) which have absolutely no biological link to anyone close.

Anyhoo that's just a wee moanfest for a Wednesday night. Feel a bit better now the old spleen has been vented. Hang in there fellow stepparents. Don't let the smelly little bastards grind you down. *Lifts up another G&T to the screen. Xx
