D-O-N-E.

I tried to “bury the hatchet.” I texted BM to ask her about taking the kids to VBS. Instead of texting me back, she calls DH (which I figured she’d do). BM told DH that her sister is coming into town next week, and that she would need more than a week’s notice if we wanted the skids (which she’s never said before). I understand that her sister is coming into town, but seriously? Is said sister going to want to spent every waking moment with the kids? Is BM taking the entire week off? Is BM’s DH? VBS is from 9a-12p. The kids would have loved it.

Here's my last-stitch effort with BM.

SS6 went to Sunday School with one of his friends last Sunday, and he LOVED it. SD8 also expressed an interest to me about wanting to go to church more often. BM does not attend church, and we go once every few months to MIL’s ‘if you don’t go to THIS church, you will burn in HELL’ church. I decided that it would be an awesome idea to sign both of them up for Vacation Bible School at the church/school that I used to attend. I ran the idea by DH, and he seemed to think that the kids would like it and benefit from it.

BM is MOTY. Didn't ya know?

I offered to pick the skids up yesterday afternoon from school. SS6 had a baseball game at 6p, and he had left his uniform at our house last week. It was easier to pick them up than to drive to BM’s house at 5p when DH got off of work for SS to change. We agreed that I would pick skids up, and we’d meet BM at the game.

Just wanted to brag. ;)

We’re having a cook out at my grandmother’s this afternoon. This was not a skid weekend, so they won’t be attending. I can’t tell you how nice it is not to have to worry about them (mainly SS6) disrespecting my family. The last time that I took SS6 around my parents, he told my mom that he “didn’t like her”. Mind you, my mom has done nothing but be good to those kids. My mom told him that he needed to put her food back (he had helped himself to a bag of chips) since he didn’t like her. LOL

You won't insult me tonight, kid.

DH called earlier and during the conversation, he asked me what I was fixing for supper. I told him that WE were having chicken. Since it’s a ‘skid night’, he asked me what they were going to be eating. I told him that I would open a can of ravioli and some applesauce. He sat in silence for a minute and then asked me if I was serious. Am I serious? Yes. Why? Because EVERY SINGLE TIME I cook something for SS6, he complains about it. There’s always SOMETHING that he doesn’t like. It’s not that I don’t fix kid friendly meals. On Saturday, I made pork roast, mashed potatoes and mac ‘n cheese.

I do NOT want anyone thinking I am associated with that trash.

I had to write SS6 a note for school explaining why he had been absent yesterday (he was sick). As I was putting the note into his folder, I saw that BM had written a check to the school for lunch $$. No problems there, right? Wrong! The check was written on an account that was in both BM and her DH’s name, but here’s the kicker – her name was still listed as ‘BM DH’s last name’. She signed the check with that name too. Wtf, seriously?! This idiot has been re-married for almost FOUR YEARS. She has legally changed her last name and uses it on all other documents.

I’m so proud of SS6. It seems like he’s finally found his “voice.”

When I picked the kids up from school yesterday, SD8 said that she had a minor sore throat. Nothing else was said about it.

This made me laugh.

We've had numerous sever weather/tornado watches this week.

BM told DH that we were welcome to come get in her basement if something were to happen. UM, HELLO?! :jawdrop: I'd rather be swept away to the magical land of Oz. Seriously .. LOL
