Take THAT
So let me preface this by saying, I have a daughter. I am someone's daugther. So while this may jepordize my feminist card, I think it's something really important for everyone, espeically young adults, to have brought to their attenion early on.
My SO is 35. When he was 20 he was in a relationship with a young woman who assisted him acruing a substaintial amount of debt-all in his name. Furniture, jewelry, cars, credit cards.

OH dear this one is loaded.....
So it has actually been really eventful around here lately.
BM1 started re-appearing about two weeks ago. She was regularly calling, telling SO she was getting her life together (again...for the 8th time), going to school to become a CNA (which is funny since, I'm not sure she'd pass state background checks but not my circus) and calling SS12 regularly.
Friday, SO got laid off until May. Womp.

OT-And the world keeps turning....
So, many of you know my family is 50 Shades of Crazy.
This week, one of my Uncles (not Uncle Jacka$$-his youngest brother rather) rolled his truck late at night, got his 5th DWI and is looking at a pretty solid prison stint.

Updateski
Last week pretty much blew. The tension/issues between SO and I spanned the ENTIRE stupid week. This was mostly due to not having adequate time to sit down and discuss what we needed to discuss.

OT-Follow up & Thank You
Hey guys,
Thank you so much to those of you who offered advice on my elderly FIL moving in. Over the past 4 days I have found myself referring to your advice in my head, taking care of myself, letting him know our schedule/plan for the day, reaching out for help all of that good stuff.

O/T I did a thing...
Hey guys.
So this isn't really step related, but I'm quite anxious-and after the fact too which is the best type of anxiety.

OT-funkshion
I just saw someone on fb giving someone else advice. They spelled "function" "funkshion"
And left it that way. I type on my tablet, so I'm no stranger to typos but I am SHOOK. I couldn't post this on Facebook so I had to post it here. This girl's spell check just straight up gave up and is probably on a barstool somewhere.

OT-I don't know if going to the doctor helped.....long sorry
*** I sliced this blog in half if you just want to know what DCP's reaction to all of this was***
So I took BD to her doctor today to follow up on the list of reports I have been getting from DCP. I need to process all of the information I was given as well as start the process of figuring out where I come down on all of this.
So I'm going to do it here, because my brain works best through my keyboard.
OT-Update to DCP conundrum
First of all, thank you everyone for your help and insight today. After looking over everyone's comments, I did decide to reach out to BD's doctor. He's a really cool dude and we set up an observation appointment and a 15 minute meeting. He doesn't think there is anything wrong with her, that she is just 3 but he does understand she's very "autonomous and spirited" and said he would be more than happy to give me a few pointers after hearing what I'm dealing with as far as DCP's reports go and he told me to stop googling.

OT-Is my Daycare Provider overly critical or should I actually call a doctor
So BD3 has been attending her new Daycare for about a year.
Now my BD is VERY active. She enjoys greatly being the center of attention (she's a Leo) and very much a people person-but not a people pleaser by any means. From the time she was a baby, she would much rather sit and coo and look at you than she would anything else. She also refused to sleep and is quite skilled at keeping herself awake, which forced us into cry it out because she just would not sleep if someone else was in the room.
