WOW BM you really just can't stand it, can you!

So BM has been very quiet since her alcohol induced visit in May. She hasn't even been texting me with her crazy stuff.. YAY. She finally remembered she had kids last week and called them.

She asked if they had been to (XYZ) yet this summer. She also asked if they went to the parade in her town. The only answer she got was "bye". Then SD8 gets on the phone. BM pretends she can't hear her and told her she would call her back. No call back and hasn't called them on her time since. I knew she would call to see what they did for the 4th, I figured she would be right on it. (She only wanted them on holidays before so she could show people how good of a mom she was, even though... she always ended up at the bar on her way to come and get them... hmmm)

No BM... Your town isn't the only place or even the closest place that has a parade. No BM.. just bc you went to XYZ with the kids one time in your life doesn't mean that is the only place they get to go! It is the closest but it isn't even the most fun. ABC has a beach. I have taken them to XYZ twice, we took them to EFG last year. This year we will go to ABC. LOL.. The letters are state parks in our area. There is no need to compete. I'm not in a competition and have told her that before. I do with the SD's what I did with my own kids when they were those ages.

She just cannot stand it that we do not do things the same. In her mind, everything is the same, DH treats me the same as he did her, , I am just here as a fill in (but DH and I don't love each other because he can only love her) while she messes around with whoever she wants and until she decides to take DH back even though he kicked her to the curb. lol.

Oh, I hate that. Thankfully our BM isn't that bad but she definitely pulls that shit with "Oh, you went to a parade? Did you go to the X parade? NO? WHY NOT? BUT YOU LOVE THAT ONE!" Yeah, because you ONCE took them to the shitty parade where you live you think that's the only one they LIKE. Uh, we go to the GOOD parade in OUR TOWN. Why would we risk getting our car stolen to park and watch a shitty parade in your town? }:)

That's the thing, she never took them anyplace by herself. It was always with DH and a lot of the time, she didn't even go. lol.

She doesn't even know her kids' favorite colors, what they like to eat... I could go on and on but I won't.

She just thinks everything is the same. She has thought that for the last .. over 3 years. She just doesn't get it that I don't make SD8 lay in bed and cry all day while I let SD7 lay on my bed and watch scary movies because she's my favorite. I let them go outside to play but she didn't so I am accused of not letting them. All kinds of random crap over the years. I am not her and she can't let it go.

Sorry.. I said I wouldn't go on and on but I did. I could go farther. LOL. Just having a very stressful day and no place to turn but you awesome STalkers. Smile

Delusional. I don't get the line of questioning that you are supposed to do all these things that she did with the skids on your time. The skids aren't in control of what they do.

Keep on keeping on. Don't worry about her.

I find it pathetic and funny to an extent.

She didn't do these things with SD's alone, DH took her and all of my SK's to that place one time. The parade, they went with their paternal grandmother the one time they went there.

BM is a show mom or whatever it's called.

The one life she remembers and the one she had are two different things. lol. She has proven that time and time again.
The reason for her call was to be nosey, usually she will add in "I did this, I wish you were here with me" and throw it in their face what she did.. or what she thinks they want to hear. She is somehow fully unaware that they don't care. They don't even tell her what fun things they do because they want her to know absolutely nothing about them.
