This Christmas I will be on my own with our bios (DD4 and DS1) as DH is away working. I have planned to visit my parents house for lunch and can't wait for a relaxing quiet Christmas Day. I'm disappointed my DH isn't home but glad the skids wont be with us Christmas morning. Bitter sweet.
I am just wanting to know if your SO was going to be working out of town with the opposite sex would you think they should tell you?
Even if you dont celebrate in your country, I am THANKFUL for YOU.
Startng tonight, off for the next two days and then the weekend.
Got started with a work review and a raise.
Ive got TWO Thanksgiving dinners, my family and then DH's considerably larger family. No purchase (which is good because the stores are CRAZY busy) no prep, just show up and eat and hang and leave.
Then a nice little dinner with a friend.
No plans other than to sleep in, and lounge.
I'm sorry but I just want to scream this ! Every freaking year, every holiday BM has to find a way to bug and or start drama ! That is about the only thing she is consistent on. This year since I guess SD is not getting anywhere on her texting DH wanting to be picked up tomorrow, enter BM. She started sending DH SD15 Christmas list unprovoked. SD had already sent DH her list weeks ago. Normally I have finally gotten to the point where I am not affected by BM or SD but DH is constantly complaining and I ask him what is going on? And he is like it's this damn list !
So there has been threads on this before. I am sure it has been discussed on the forums as well. What are your methods to keep feral skids ransacking household goods like a plague of locusts? What are your cost cutting ideas?
Some choose the hiding method such as hiding in the veg bin as skids are naturally averse to anything that grows from the ground and that requires picking.
DH has not talked to SS18 the Golden child in almost 3 WEEKS. DH is livid because SS is talking about hating college, and we know it's 99% because of his Jr-in-HS gf back home. SS is across the country and has a ton of friends, is in a frat, and this college is amazing for his major. There are HUGE opportunities that he could never get anywhere else. But, a month before he left for college he decided to get super serious with his gf here. WHY. Prior to that they would go weeks without seeing each other.
Back in October when I participated in SD's parent teacher conference, SD's grades were the best they have been in a while. Because of this, I did not say anything in the conference except when her teacher asked me if I had any thoughts/questions. All I did was say that DH and I were happy to see that SD was more confident and how her confidence affects her performance in school. Well, now we are in the second marking period and like every year, SD's grades are slipping both in homework and tests.
OSD28 just walked into the kitchen, started rummaging through our refrigerator and pantry area and took a BIG chunk of my homemade breastfast bars then started to walk away with it. DH called after her, "Those are homemade" to which she replied "It looks like it" and then closed the door.
Byatch!
Does she know she is getting under my skin? Lord have mercy, this one is going to be the death of me. I'm not saying anything to DH. No "thank-you," no, "They're so delicious I can't resist ... thank-you so much!" This woman child needs to leave!
Happy Monday, dear friends.
Today, I have been single for ten months!! And I'm happy to report that I've finally turned that corner into full acceptance of my reality. It's a peaceful feeling - not feeling the pull to know anything about my ex. I find it uninteresting and can easily redirect my focus, if a thought of him crosses my mind or I get curious about what he's up to. Meh (That's for CLove). I'm finally at "meh."
My birthday was last week - 58 years! Only 4 more until retirement - I hope.
