A price tag of guilt

So this weekend happens to be one of the few that I get SS14 for the entire weekend. As in from Friday afternoon until late Sunday night. His BM is away so that's why. He does normally come over EVERY Sunday all day / night in addition to either sat or Friday night ( sat & Friday part alternates) Anyway, he dosent have meny clothes at our house bc whatever he wears over, he just puts on the next day. He only sleeps over 1 night per weekend. He does have a few things here but last night I had him go thru everything & throw out what dosent fit.

Mothers day shocker!!!

Well this mothers day truly shocked the hell outta me. I have 2 SS 14 & 18 who have never done anything for me for mothers day (SS18 once said happy mothers day to me years ago, and SS 14 once gave me hug years ago for mothers day but it was only bc DH said he should). Well not expecting anything today, my SS 14 says Happy Mothers day!! All happy and proud , not mumbled like some things he says. That alone blew me away. He told me not to clean the house or lift a finger bc today is my day. At this point I was really wondering who the child was. This is 100% out of character.

It's a long time spent not knowing someone.

Well leave it to my SS14 to make me feel insignificant. We were all sitting in living room watching TV & he starts talking to DH ( and I do mean JUST DH-he turns his head to him only and only makes eye contact with him while talking ) he starts talking about his moms side of the family relatives asking DH if he remembers so & so and bla bla bla. Then he starts taking about his step-fathers mother. He proceeds to give a detailed list of things she likes and tells this story about when she was younger.

Inappropriate comments in front of SS

So I decided for some unknown reason to have a family night out with hubby & SS. DH had a bad day at work & came home like a total grump. So I made him a drink & let him vent about his day. Then we went out to dinner and DH started acting all grumpy again. He was just being really snippy to me in front of SS. I tried to just joke it off to maintain a nice night. DH wouldn't stop thou and it really started to wear on me, then DH was noticing that I was annoyed and wouldn't stop asking me what my problem was. Finally SS got up & went to the bathroom.

Who's house is better game

God how I have grown to hate parts of Chrustmas. Use to be one if my absolute favorite holidays. Over the past 8-9 years I've learned that it's become a game with the skids who's house is better. They really make out well bc BM has open house on x-mass eve & all relatives ( including their stepdads family) and everyone gives them gifts. Then on chrustmas they get gifts from BM & stepdad, then come over to our house & get our gifts. Must be nice. Every year I have to hear about what great gift aunt so and so got them, or what mom got them.

SS has BIG balls to ask me this.....!

So I haven't seen one of my SS since June when he graduated high school & I payed for the family to go out to dinner to celebrate. He hasn't come over ONCE to say hello or anything. Just now he sends me a text asking if he can borrow my very expensive SUV to drive states away to visit a girlfriend I didn't even know he had, at her collage. Really? Why would I lend him my car for this? So he can drink & boink in my car? Really? He can't even stop by to say hi & he has a friend down the street that he visits at least weekly.

Oooops! I did it again!

Its my own fault, Ill start out by saying that. Tonight we had a little graduation 'celebration' for one skid who graduated high school and the other who graduated 8th grade. So of course my DH had basically nothing to do with the entire thing.. I was the one who suggested that we even have the celebration. I asked older skids where he would like to go for dinner.. he picks a fairly expensive place.. not 5 star or anything but not chilies either. So whatever that's fine.

Awkward situation -skids graduation

So I just found out moments ago that Skids graduation has assigned seating ! Really freaking out about this bc I can only imagine how incredibaly awkward this is going to be. Plus, of course after the graduation skid is coming over to our row for photos. Ugh. If I can get thru this then I prob don't need to worry about a situation this awful until skid gets married. And hopefully that won't be for a LONG time. I just wonder WHY the he'll you would have assigned seating when the majority of kids have divorced patents.

Excruciatingly Painful weekend with Skid!

Oy Vey! I had the pleasure **sarcasm*** of being with SS13 all weekend from Friday after school until just moments ago. It was pure torture.. he is moody, anxious, and has the personality of a rock. I cant even just do normal day to day things in my home when he is here.. he lays around like a lump on a log. My husband doesn't understand what the big deal is, but then again he was at work half the weekend, so he wouldn't. You know its bad when its the weekend and you wish you were at work. I don't even like my job, and I would MUCH rather be working.

Fathers day- help!

So for fathers day in the past I would talk to the skids and ask if they had ideas for gifts for dad, then I would go get the gift or have them come with me to pick something out. I would also get a cake for DH or go out to dinner with him and the skids ( and pay for everything ). Well now one skid is almost 18, drives and has a well paying job, so I'm not going to remind him that he needs to get a gift or buy one for him. However the other skid is 14 and as luck would have it, we don't get the kids at all fathersday weekend.
