The Complications Of Living With SD20 (Blog Entry 2)

TheStepMaid's picture

I am new to StepTalk. All of you will hear me complain and vent about my SD'20 who lives with H and I. It's impossible to fully explain the situation from day one until now over the last two years since she's been living here, so I simply decided to go about this in the easiest way I can imagine to share my experience.

Quick Vent-No Luck Sleeping

It's nearly 2am and I'm so tired and sleepy. I have been trying for the last hour to go to sleep but have failed epically. Why??

SD20 and her half-sister who is 15 (and no relation to H, but SD's BM's other Daughter who is staying with us for the week) are both awake and creeping around the house making noise and being disruptive. Anyway I have been in the bedroom, H is peacefully passed out and sleeping like a baby (as usual) and totally oblivious to everything, meanwhile I am awake with our two little Yorkies who are highly protective and spastic at every sound.

Background On My Current Situation (First Blog Entry)

For the last two years, H's eldest Daughter (SD aged 20) has been living with us.

Immediately there were several reasons why I resented SD moving in with us in the first place:

**H and I had bought and moved into our new home just five months before SD showed up on our doorstep. We had just literally finished unpacking, refurnishing, remodeling, and finally starting to settle in a little. We had no time to enjoy our new home together or recover from the chaos of the move before she dragged all her drama and stress in along with her.
