Tomorrow is my 7 year anniversary with DH.
Not sure whether to toast myself for this accomplishment or not...

Update on Finances - Apparently I'm a 'Snack Ticket' (lighthearted)
So, DH has been doing well lately and earning more regularly with freelance work as we continue to try to make the business work and grow it. We have decided that if it doesn't recuperate and take off at least a little by the end of the year, he will go into 2018 with something that looks a little more like regular employment. He starts despairing and getting really down on himself and depressed when things don't seem to be working...but I also think he panics and lacks patience...so we've been working on that along with better communication for both of us.
I Can't Do It.
I don't know. I don't think I can do it anymore.

Skid Fashion
My YSD went to school this morning in high-waisted black velvet pants with a long-sleeved grey T-shirt tucked in. The T-shirt bunched up all around her waist...so unflattering.
I honestly do not get this high-waisted trend...when it's jeans or other thick fabrics. A nice pair of slimming wool sailor pants ala the 40's? Super cute. High-waisted jeans make all these teen girls look like they've got the longest bottoms ever...or maybe like they're wearing a freshly-loaded diaper underneath.

Another Request for Money. Of Course.
Most recent BM request for money. Actually, it started as an OSD request (OSD is almost 21, so DH has specifically told BM not to ask for money for her...that if she needs something, she should come to us directly.) But BM didn't think DH was responding to OSD quickly enough, so she stepped in.

Confession Time - I Was Wrong
So, I was internally frustrated and angry at my DH because I thought he lied to me and went behind my back to buy his son a train ticket to come work a job with him. DH told me that SS bought the ticket himself:

What Would You Do? (Part 2)
Melanne's post made me realize that I have a CS question of my own. I will try to keep this succinct.
DS and I have been married for 7 years this May. He has 3 kids from a previous relationship...and we are down to one kid on CS for one more year. Yippee!

Imagine Being THIS Stepmom. Guess it could always get worse...
Saw this story. Long but interesting:
https://www.buzzfeed.com/michelledean/dee-dee-wanted-her-daughter-to-be-...
$1200 a month plus extras...past the age of 18...and the kid isn't even sick...
But the Karma bus hit this BM hard.
So exhausted. Angry...full of rage, really. Not sure if I should be?
So, I will try to keep this as concise as possible.
Short Story:
DH was gone on a job for the entire month of March. He works in a field that SS18 (stb19) is interested in, so I sent SS up there to intern for 3-4 days, which thrilled my DH. I bought him the ticket, which was about $350...but I view it as a worthwhile investment in SS's potential launching, so I didn't mind.
