It's time to upgrade our phones... we get free upgrades through TMobile every year assuming the trade in is in good working order. Problem is Little Idiot told us her phone was cracked.... which might make it ineligible for trade in. Last time this happened we ended up paying a couple hundred extra on our first bill because she cracked her last phone. They still accepted it though but this time it is worse. The phone before that was also cracked but it was a small crack on the edge they didn't catch so... no extra charge that time.
So last night was horrible for SO. I did cave in and go to the pre dinner. SO pleased to not make him go alone. I am glad i went. SDs step dad was dressed up so we knew he would also be walking. SD never told SO that her stepdad was still going to do this. Even though my SO had asked if it was just him and BM several times. Each girl had pictures of growing up and SO was not in one of them. Her step dad and step brothers were in several. My SO almost broke down he was so upset. I didn't go to the game but watched it live stream.
So stepgrandson had his first birthday party which we were invited to. Unfortunately they scheduled his party for early afternoon and time scheduled to end was 4pm, which would have meant DD9 wouldn’t be able to attend as she gets out of school at 3. I communicated this to SS24 who said “oh” but he didn’t change the time which was fine.
Because I'm tired of being a 'stepmother'.
I hate it, actually.
I hate the disrespect, the attitude.
I hate the apathy.
I hate the wasted time, emotions, sanity.
All the best years of my life are over and wasted on a brat that could care less if I was alive or dead.
Let me reiterate, *ahem* I DETEST BEING A STEPMOTHER.
Step child comes around and it makes me catch my breath.
Like a medium-sized black hole sucking the joy out of life.
A bottomless pit of anger and resentment.
My heart has become an abyss.
I'm back after spending 14 days in Scotland and England. We dropped off my second oldest for grad school at St. Andrews Scotland
10 days in London...
I loved the UK...I must say
Your public transit is AMAZING....
I loved all the sites and the food...you all know what a proper portion size is..for the first time in forever I didn't have to take over 1/2 of my meal home.
Scotland...specifically ST. Andrews...BEAUTIFULL...loved all of it. I cannot wait to go back there.
Hey everyone, first time posting and I'm afraid I've come to vent!!
Bit of background, I've been with my husband 6 1/2 years and between us we have 4 young adults
Both of us split with our exes years ago when the kids were much younger
Am I crazy? My god, my parents were not perfect but they did encourage independence. By 36, I owned a house and a mountain cabin and had a fulfilling life outside of my parents. Although I continued my relationships with them and their partners, I didn't feel the need for them to pamper me during holidays.
I am wondering what is going to happen this weekend when I don't go to senior night. I have toured several apartments and townhomes. I am sure it is going to get ugly. But anyway today SO wanted to pick up SS from practice because he hasn't seen him. That is not an issue but the issue is that SS said I will let you pick me up if you take me to the store and buy me(and it is something for sports , I am not sure ) because I stopped listening. So now in order for your dad to see you he has to buy you something. My goodness. Time for me to buy something for myself on his card.
This is in response to Lulumay91blog post entitled, When a step child leaves.
We recently took my SS17 to Vegas. It is one of the spots where you may get a tattoo with parental consent under age 18. We took him for the sole purpose of his first tattoo that he has been begging for. He is a good kid, makes good grades, plays sports and is very well mannered.
