Struggling this summer with the skids as there are of course so many times that I am last to find out the new plans or plans. My 13yr old sd came to me to tell me that her cousin that is daughter to my dh sister will be spending 1 week with BM. Jealous that my sil doesn't consider me an aunt possibly to ask me how I feel about this or the fact that my 13 yr old sd is the one that has informed me of the news. Maybe more disappointment as there are always plans made and I am that last to know and my opionon doesn't matter. It is more that I am ok in order to get the house hold duties done not have a bad attitude no slamming doors or if the skids don't speak when they walk in the home or when I walk in the home this is all acceptable or if they choose to leave every light on in the house when they leave, leave doors open or even make deals to do the dishes 3 days ago and these are still not done I am sure dh will get them cleaned up for sd as he is always quick to try and clean up after them instead of have any consequences or have to parent. Yes, I think this is much easier so I feel uncomfortable in my home these summer months as there are no rules any one want to come over we pretty much buy you what you want and if you would like to have some one clean up after you even if it is too dificult to put the toilet paper back on the roll for some unknown reason it is hard to put that sucker back on the sm will be right here oh yes, I have your back and God forbid if I don't we pay for sd to text bm and tell her what a crazy bitch that I am... I think that I have waited too long to vent.. Starting to feel a little better mostly thinking that I don't need to stay away so long I need you people. So please share...
