So Annoyed!

So...my DH just walked out with SS17 who is on his way to work. They took two cars.

I text DH...ask him what's going on. His response: "SS is almost out of gas and doesn't have any money."

What are your Non-negotiable House Rules?

A question for the S-talkers.

I feel like I've done a pretty good job disengaging. I am friendly with my skids, hang out with them when I feel like it...don't feel guilty about it anymore when I don't feel like it. I count down the days they're here, but only because I like having my home on the less-noisy, less-chaotic side, not because I'm miserable or can't stand them. I am able to enjoy being with them while also enjoying their departure now Smile

So...it's our weekend, and it's a holiday weekend...

Yesterday, DH says the kids will probably come over around noon since they don't have school. WHHYYYYYYYY?!?!?!

We both work from home, and it's still a work day for us. We have a lunch meeting at 12:30. Also...my office doubles as SDs bedroom when they're here.

Not Feeling The Love

How do all you SMs keep the romance going?

I have (had?) a great marriage...everyone we know thinks of us as inseparable. We've had some big fights...but we've been passionate, best friends, true loves...

Lately though, I've just been feeling nothing, or very little, for my husband. I don't actively hate or dislike him. I simply feel like there's nothing or very little left. I'm able to weather the skid visits no problem...don't feel a lot for them either. They're just there, and I'm there.

So...I've definitely had my share of financial resentment as a childless SM to three skids. As many other childless SMs have posted here...it stinks double to be childLESS without the benefits of being childFREE. I've also thought that my skids are entitled until I read some of the stories on here...woah. All in all, my skids are getting fairly self-sufficient and don't expect too much. Even the youngest (SD15) has a job and has recently offered to pitch in to her cell phone bill, which DH and I pay. I was floored and touched.
