2nd weekend in a row, coming up!
Did I mention how, because of the crazy bm we have the skids THIS weekend as well as last weekend?? no? sorry.
Ha.. we were not suppose to have them last weekend (a LOOONNNNGGG
WEEKEND) but had them because the weekend before that the BM wanted to keep them.
What does all this mean?! I just got rid of them on Monday evening.. and we will be picking them up again on Saturday am. I do need a break.. and I am not getting it.
This means another weekend where BM might be able to try and insert herself, by either making unneeded phone calls or hanging him up at the pickup or drop off. She is GOOD at this.. she gets talking to him and stuff and before you know it, a 1/2 hr or more has passed by.. I went on the last drop off to eliminate this.
I hate BACK TO BACK WEEKENDS!

weekend
Do you have them every weekend or this a stunt that BM pulled so that you would have the long weekend instead of her. I am so tired of all the skd stuff myself I could not do every weekend so I am glad they are older now.
I am on weekend #3
so I am soooo with you. BM wants baseball pictures & ss10's are this weekend so guess what we get to do. Also there is some clinic afterwards. How none of this shit ever falls on her weekend just kills me.
Every weekend is all about them, the world revolves around them & their activities & their friends. What to heck ever happened to parents having a life? Doing home improvement projects? Or hey how about this kids getting off their lazy self intitled asses & helping?
Yes I truly feel my name should be step maid. I made the comment last weekend I hope everyone is having fun cuz I sure the hell am not.
OMG. What a rude child. I
OMG. What a rude child. I would have yelled back, I dont NEED to get a room, I HAVE A WHOLE HOUSE!!
What a brat. I hope for your sake that this coming weekend is skids free. I know mine is supposed to be, yet we have a million things going on this coming weekend, so not sure this will be a relaxing weekend.
She pulled the stunt I think
She pulled the stunt I think to get out of the long weekend.. WHY??? I dont know.. She probably wanted to do something w/her younger child and didnt want her older two that belong to my dh w/them.
On god. #3.. I think I would be pulling my hair out!!
My dh started a project like 5 weeks back.. digging window wells. He hasnt finished, because of skid weekends and the like. Its driving me CRAZY!! and to add to that.. ALL THE SUPPLIES for the window wells are on the ground near the windows in question.. WAITING for someone to either put them away or put them to use. This includes a brand new ax that he told me he needed to do the project, the metal well thingys and the white rocks to go in the bottom of the window well.
35 days!
It's been 35 days since sd came to live with us. I thought after she settled in a bit that things would ease but not so much. Some things are a little better, we don't argue about clothes any more but I took them all so nothing really to argue about there. I think she has shifted her focus to food now and that is driving me batty, Dh just thinks it's "how she is". I think it's about control, just like the clothes.
I have been so disappointed in Dh lately and his innate ability to ignore things, his inability to follow through or be consistant and his desire to make EVERYONE HAPPY. Well, I have learned that you can't make EVERYONE happy all the time. He can't stand to see any of us upset so he jumps through hoops all the time, just makes me nuts. *sigh*
I wish we could go back to 50/50 but I don't see that happening any time soon. I hope we can get away together for a few days, maybe that would put us back on some level ground. I really hate feeling this way, I hate the tension that this situation has brought to our home and I feel powerless to stop it. I guess I am just as frustrated with myself as I am Dh.

I feel for you
I am so sorry you have to do back to back weekends.... I HATE those.... H loves them cause he gets to see "his" kids but then he is always working and guess who really has visitation??? ME! UGH!!!! If I knew then......
It is opposite here, thank goodness
With us having custody of SD, she sees BM most weekends. I so don't look forward to the one weekend a month we have her! But we used to have every other week (seven days with BM, then seven days with us) so we had every other weekend. And BM would change it when it suited her. Drove me crazy! Now SD can drive BM and her husband crazy with her repeated weekend visits. That consist of going to the movies, going shopping, going tanning.
SD actually had the nerve to write on a recent school assignment that one of the things that causes her stress is chores. Excuse me?! She doesn't have any at BMs and doesn't do the ones she has at our house. What's to cause the stress? Finding ways to get out of chores? Worrying you'll be caught and have to actually do them?
They
tried pulling that crap with me when we first got married, then I realized that I couldn't emotionally handle it. EOW is even more than I can handle. So..........NO BACK TO BACK WEEKENDS.
The boy's mother should bend, not me. I raised my kids. She can pawn him off somewhere else. No wonder these damn bioparents feel guilt-------------they don't want to watch their own kids.
Okay, I am sorry in advance if I offended anyone. Forgive the rant.
i feel for you
my Bf is trying to get back to back weekends and i really cant even stand EOW i wouldnt mind if it was friday cos that way they would be gone sat and i would have sat night and sunday to chill but having them sat night there there all day sat and all day sunday and that means no rest for working all week lil ol me
it drives me nuts
and there awful kids
life is a box of choclates you never know what your going to get (i always pick the coffe of the box what about you )
That is what gets me..
That is what gets me.. there will be no rest w/those two in the house. Then they like to dominate.. eat everything in site.. and demand demand demand.
I have planned a bday party for my dh tomorrow. They have NEVER been around during his bday, nor has he for that matter (military).. so they had better get on board w/something being about someone else, other than them.
My mom promises me that when I have kids of my own, that I wont feel the same way about them.. that my kids would be able to play w/their toys on their own w/o having to play w/them 24/7.. that my kids would be more relaxed, less demanding (because it wont all have to be fit in a 36 hr period) etc.
I just know that I am not looking forward to this weekend.
