A little annoyed- Regarding Funeral

zerostepdrama's picture

Submitted by zerostepdrama on Wed, 02/25/2015 - 1:14pm

I want to start off by saying I am not heartless. Also you really have to know my Ex to probably get the gist of why I am a little annoyed.

Ex is pretty dramatic and an attention seeker. He also enjoys the dramatic stuff in life. Any event to be dramatic, Ex is all for.

Ex doesnt see BS9 very much. Mostly due to he lives 45-60 minutes away, works weekends and doesnt have a car/license. It's hard for him to get a ride to meet half way for pick up/drop off. I will on occasion drive the whole way.

Any ideas for FUN baby shower games? Something interactive? Like a fun way of doing musical chairs, pass the baby (Like hot potato), etc.

Planning my niece's baby shower.

I'm pretty much over baby showers and over the games at baby showers.

Any ideas for a fun, interactive game is appreciated.

I know some of you ladies watch the show.

Did you catch the "Getting to Know...." specials that were on tv this weekend?

I missed Catelyn's but watched the other 3.

Amber:

I'm surprised Gary's current PREGNANT GF puts up with all his back and forth with Amber. She still seems like she has some issues with anger. And WOW! How Gary looks now. Umm yeah...not good. Leah is adorable though.

Maci:

All seems good with her. Her usual drama with Ryan which I am curious about. He seems more distanced then before.

Farrah:

My Dad and SM were in town this weekend...........

And the visit went well. I posted a blog a bit back about my AS and my parents coming to visit. It was actually a nice visit and things turned out well. My AS is a lot better then she was last time she stayed (May 2014), with the help of her meds and therapy she is in. Most of the stuff she did during this visit that I found annoying was her just being a typical spoiled teenager.

I hope that DH noticed while my dad was here that:

I did not sit on my dad's lap.

I did not act jealous towards my SM.

I did not hang all over my dad.

How long have you been married?

What time (first year, 7 year itch, etc) in your marriage has been the hardest?

What do you fight about?

What makes your marriage good?

Do you regret getting married?

What are your plans as a married couple, when all of the kids are "out of the house"?

OT- Anyone use a CPA for taxes?

I file our taxes each year using one of the free online sites. Its pretty easy, just inputting numbers, etc. I refuse to go to an H&R Block type place because they way overcharge and I feel like they are just inputting the numbers, the same way I am.

I know a few people who use a CPA. I know they have a lot more items they write off. So it's worth it.

Here are the items that we have:

W-2
MIP
Ttudent loan interest
Daycare costs
401K interest (or something like that)
Injured spouse form

Need some feedback...

This story has LOTS of background, which I wont bore everyone with, but I will try to cover as much as possible.

My Dad and SM live 6 hours away. They adopted a girl (I will refer to as AS) 16 years ago. AS is a HUGE PITA. It really boils down to my parents not parenting her, on top of some mental issues that she has and some learning disablities that she has as well. But really the lack of parenting.

Due to the distance, my sister and I (we live in the same town) do not get to see Dad and family very often.
