So now that Christmas has passed...
Oh boy...
We went to visit the skid, she was happy as she could be since she had missed her dad a lot, and that's why as soon as she saw us, she gave a big hug to her dad and then ran to me and didn't let me go anywhere.
We invited BM to dinner so we could discuss next year's new school for the kid. She said since they had just returned from the beach she hasn't had the time to take a look at the numbers. and she started talking about how a great planner she was, and how she spent 5 out of 9 months searching for a good hospital to deliver the skid, and how she spent a lot of time on planning the beach thing so she spent about 400 dlls in an all-inclusive 5-star hotel (ok, she DID get a bargain for that, I admit it) and how she'll do the same for the new private school. Then she started talking as if she covered all the expenses for th skid (c'mon girl! WE PAY FOR EVERYTHING) but didn't say it literal, so there was no confrontation and I just went with the flow. I noticed DH doesn't even talk to her, not even look at her and lets me do all the talking. Is that a good thing? He was focused on keeping skid busy and eating even though all she wanted to do was to talk to me about her fun and wonderful vacations (she's 5, I know she wasn't doing it to make me feel less) and interrupting my conversation with BM, and YES she preferred to be with me than with her BM.
Visitation went pretty well, had fun, bought a lot of new shoes for me, and glad it was over before I lost my mind with a high demanding kid.
BM friended me on Facebook, and even made some comments on my pictures (all related to her D), and I'm not so sure if it's a good or a bad thing, maybe if I get along with her things will be better, don't you think?
On the other hand, skid called me "mom" a few times, I'm sure it wasn't on purpose and I quickly replied to her "I'm not your mom honey"
OH! and I saw MIL, she didnt even say Hi, nor said good bye. When skid wanted all of us to say good bye and wish her a merry christmas to grandma I limited myself to a "Good night Mrs." and walked away. Was it rude? Maybe (DH thinks I was rude and that I shouldn't have done it) but it felt SO GOOD.
Christmas went well, skid-free and the same will happen for new year.
This is good life

Actually is the other way
Actually is the other way around, she said she didn't have any money but then I saw a lot of pictures of her on a bar (with the date on them!!) and I'm sure she didn't get any of those drinks for free (she got wasted)
Maybe put her on limited profile? *-)
