Took a break, now things seem even worse need some advice

Well its been a while since I have blogged on here and I have to say I miss it. I gave birth to my son a few months ago so time is something I do not have much of anymore so I am glad I found some to write.

My 13 yr sd, is worse than ever. She basically rules my husbands life and he lets her. I have finally took a step back. I had to, I now have a child that I have to teach to be respectful and I WILL!

Do you ever feel like your husband is still married to the ex....I feel like that at times! I need some help friends!!!

Disclaimer.... I am not the jealous wife! Please know that right off the bat!

Sometimes I feel though that the ex is talked to and treated better than the way I get treated.

Here is the background of the story.....Yesterday morning my husband woke up with his ear hurting him. We had some drops but they were not what he really wanted. His daughter, who was with us this weekend and is 13 years of age, has major ear troubles.

Why is disengaging so hard....a story that will blow your minds needing help with that time of month

Well, I think for a moment things have changed and then BAM! I am hit with something else. Being 7 and 1/2 months pregnate, I like to think I am just emotional, but talking with a close friend she said she would be the same way and shes not pregnate.

I just worked my ass,sorry for the cursing, off trying to get my 13 yr old step daughters room ready so she could move into it before the new addition came along. She has been in the room for about two weeks and it already smells like a sweaty dirty something.

Somedays I just feel like the maid at the house...grrrr!

Ok....I hate it when my day starts off bad. It really puts me in a sour mood and I am not they type that likes to be in these kinds of moods.

My husband does not like it when I make our step daughter practice responsiblity at our home. All I ask is for her to make her bed and put her computer up at night....I learned a long time ago not to even mention unloading dishwasher or dusting...heaven forbit that. He did agree to the bed making and computer putting up....but I have come to realize that he is the one that does it for her...so she doesnt even have to do that.

If someone needs a good laugh...you need to read the latest from my "Perfect sd" (WHATEVER)

SO last night, I wasnt feeling to well and decided to stay home from my sd game. She is a cheerleader, so two nights a week are dedicated to games.

Once my husband and sd get home you would have thought that some national landmark had been damaged or worse. My husband comes in shaking his head mumbleing (well loud enough I could make it out), if I make it through the sd teenage years it will be a miracle. Then he turns to me and starts to tell me the story.

Who cares that I have feelings too!!

I am a very simple person. I like a clean house, I like to take care of the things that I have and I dont ask or do much of anything that is out of my means. I love surprises especially when i do not expect a thing. I do not get many of these because for some reason my husband and step children dont seem to plan things that well.

I cant freaking believe what just came out of my husbands mouth

OK....SO....I am blowing steam out my ears at this very moment! My husband, who sometimes I wonder would rather be bff with his ex rather than say something nice to his wife just called me and told me something insanely rude and if I had been face to face with him I might just have slapped him.

Poll Time- How many SM talk to their step kids mother aka the ex

Had a girl's night last night at my friends house and the subject came up. I have friends that are divorced or married to a divorced man. SO the question is......

How many step moms deal more with the ex that has to do with kid issues?

I have a friend who talks to the ex all the time about the kids.

Then I have another who doensnt have a thing to do with the ex. When the ex calls the kids father is is mostly when the she is not around.

Just wondering....

im 28 and still hear crap from my mom about my dad....what do i need to do?

Ok....so my parents divorced when I was around the age of 12. My father paid child support and did what the court asked of him...but really was not the loving affectionate type toward me. Everything had to go by the books and I grew to resent him for this. For the longest time I really blocked him out out my life.

Well now that I am 28, I talk and see my father, but still do not nor probably never have the relationship a father daughter should have.

I think I need psychological help....a counselor or something...what do you all think?

My Step talk friends...I think I need help bad. My husband has a problem and I need to learn how to deal with it. His problem consists of not being able to tell his daughter NO. This brat would be my sd!

She, first off texted her father last night, to see if someone could spend the night tonight. He turns to me and tell me what was said. I look at him and say....its a school night. No one needs to stay on a school night. (Disclaimer:the last 3 nights 2 people have already stayed with her.)
