how can something so simple get ruined?

I thought I was "lucky" that my hair stylist come to my house, well last night I was proven wrong.
My MIL went out of town yesterday and my DH took her to the airport leaving my FIL with me at our house...I love the guy but an hour with him seems like a lifetime. He complains about everything and has an opinion about everything. With trying to get SS6 to school and keeping it quiet so my 8 month old daughter can nap, it was a little chaotic to say the least. My FIL has to have to surround sound blasting and I can't stand it, but he is a guest.

oh no, it's almost summer

My DH does the parenting when he is here, but when he is at work I have SS6 from 8am until 530pm but I get a break while he is in school from 1245-345pm but other then that I have him EVERYDAY. I am not sure how this will change when his mom is done with cosmetology school in May, but I can't wait. I have been thinking about summer though, and if it's anything like last year I will go insane. I was stuck in my home because I had my daughter in June 2010 and SS6 and SD8 were outta school. I couldn't exactly take a newborn to the pool, and even if I could I didn't have the strength.

did I go too far?

So everything kind of came to a head tonight with DH. I have been distancing myself from his kids and DH. I love my husband with all my heart and divorce is the last thing I want. I just cannot continue to do all the work of being mom and reap none of the benefits. I told DH today that I will no longer do SS6 homework with him on BM's week. We have joint physical custody and SS6 spends one week with us and one with BM. When school started BM asked my DH "why don't you do homework with our son?" DH replies "what are u talking about?

need honest oppinions

okay so back when school started I went to pick up SS6 and SD8 (from 2 different schools btw) and couldn't find SD8 anywhere. So I'm driving around the school, freaking out, having a heart attack, for 15 minutes. I cannot get out to look because I had SS6 and our 5 month old daughter in the car. So I pick up my phone to call DH to tell him someone has kidnapped SD8, and I get a text saying BM decided to pick her up. It was 15 minutes before she text DH to tell him!

lost

I am new to this site but after reading some posts I think this may be what I need. I have a DH who has 1 daughter8 and 1 son(6), with 2 different women. Never married to either of them...We got married and now have a daughter together 8 months old. I didn't have time to adjust to being a new mom because I had SS all day and night because BM went to school to do hair. We used to not get along with SS's BM but now the table have turned and we really do not get along with SD's BM. I can't stand the way she raises SD and tries to dictate how we will raise SD at our home.
