I'm one of those people that just think she's so smart.

But everytime I get high and mighty and think I've got BM pegged, she cycles and reminds me that I am perfectly INcapable of predicting her behavior.

SD11 had back to school night last night and I thought for sure BM would skip it. SD11 was with us and her pattern is that when she has a BF, she conveniently skips these types of things. So I prepared DH to either handle it on his own or expect her to show up with her dipshit boyfriend even though DH explicitly requested that he not come.

Well, she showed up AND sans the BF. Amazing. (She did however call him all throughout the presentations.)

DH said that she literally was like a bouncing ball for the 2 hours they were there. In a great mood one moment and near tears the next. SD11 even commented on her mom's roller coaster emotions. I guess she was also sporting a cold sore the size of a Ford Pinto.

SD11 last night was REFUSING to go on a Memorial Day camping trip with her mom and her boyfriend. BM tried to scream at DH when SD11 said that she wanted to stay at her dad's, DH simply said that it was none of his business and that it was between the two of them. BM started crying and said that if SD11 wanted to stay with her dad, she could.

Her life is in complete chaos and she has not a soul to blame but herself. She is miserable and for once no one around her gives a shit. Not me, not DH, not her mom or sister, not even her daughters.

I think we are ALL done. Bridges have long been torched and all we strive for is a cordial relationship that is based on the common interest of the girls. And the girls love their mom but are slowly realizing her neverending selfishness and can't help but be mad about it.
