Torn
Err, I am just so angry and depressed lately. I was suppose to be taking SD14, just her and I, for an outing this weekend, but now I don't think that is going to happen. Why? Well, if you read my blog yesterday, you will know. SD16 needs over $100 for school because she had to switch classes. My thought is... Oh well, but I know DH will be mad if we still go. I don't care though, that girl ruins EVERYTHING! I am so sick of it. To be honest it is only her fault to a degree. If DH would stop tip toeing around her a$$ and act like a parent (OR BM!) she would not be this way.

$$$$
SD16 is going to a career center, and elected to take the hardest class possible. She is LD, and I knew she wouldn't be able to do it. I don't say that meanly at all, but it is what it is. I told DH this before she started. He ignored me. BM was off telling everyone SD16 was going to be doctor. :O So I went out and spent about $200 on the supplies needed for the class. Well guess what??? After 3 weeks in... the teacher set a note home saying they don't she can do it, and needs to transfer classes ASAP as there is only one day left for transfers. So now...

Frustrated
So... Neither one of my SD's have lifted a hand in my house in MONTHS! We are extremely tight on money right now as well. DH comes home the other night from picking up SD16 at BM's. SD14 was picked up early because BM and SD16 were once again bullying her because she doesn't want to live there. SD16 shoved her up against some cabinets and SD14 yelled "Don't touch me" SD16 replied with "I can touch you if I want to". Which is true, because BM allows it. SD16 is always beating up on SD14 at BM's house. It is a NON issue at ours, because it isn't allowed. Anyway...

2 weeks
Tomorrow will mark two weeks since I spoke to SD16. She really hasn't been home much, but she has been there and we haven't exchanged as much as a look. After all of the drama she has caused in the last couple months, I am just done. I know this isn't exactly "adult" of me, but I don't care anymore. I have taken the high road time and time again. Maybe it will teach her a lesson, a lesson she needs to learn. "You can't just treat people like crap all the time, and expect them to forgive and forget because you want something."

The cycle...
Sometimes I feel like the ugly circle will never end. This is how my circle rolls.
SD16 (normally, but also SD14 at times) does something or asks to do something, and DH either nothing, or allows it.
I get mad.
I don't talk to him for a day or two.
We argue for two days, because I am "wrong" and the way he handled it was "right".
I don't talk to him for a day or two.
We talk.
He says he sees my side, and we agree on what is allowed, what isn't allowed, and how it will be handled next time.

Last Night
Last night was a really good night. SD16 was gone to stay with SIL by the time I got home. SD14, DH, and DS1 went for a walk, and got ice cream. I wish it could be like this ALL the time. Don't get wrong, SD14 isn't "perfect" but she is a normal teenager. She has her mouthy moments, and she makes her mistakes, but when she is told to straighten up, she does. No questions asked. In her not so great moments, she will just go to her room and give the silent treatment, but I much prefer that to the hell SD16 causes. She is a maniac, and I can't stand her any more.

4 Years
I am four years into this mess. One would think I would wake up and "get it". It isn't going to get better! Ever. I keep thinking that she will be 18 in a little over a year. Only two more years of school, but who says it ends then? I do NOT think she is going to be a productive adult, and I do NOT think she is going to be able to hold a J-O-B! My husband surely isn't going to let her live on the streets. She doesn't think she has to listen to anyone now (and in reality, she DOESN'T!) so it will only get worse when she turns 18, 19, 20, 30... whatever! I can't do it.

New Here
Hi! I found this site awhile ago, and decided to start blogging/posting. I need a place to vent and get things out. I have tried other SM boards, but my situation with my eldest SD is really out of hand, and most just don't know what to say. Heck, I don't know what to say. Sometimes, I just need to get it out!
