Oh there ain't no cure for the summertime blues...

And thus it begins again. Dh informs me Friday that twat waffle has ordained ss will not be attending summer school. Evidently all the years of me hitting the man over the head and reiterating the mantra "not my monkey, not my circus" paid off because dh immediately piped up with, "Well Princess Mofo has a lot on her plate this summer and will be unavailable for babysitting, so I will make other arrangements and provide you with the contact info when I have it."

According to dh she looked like someone slapped her in her horse-face and then spat out the words, "Well why not?!" To which dh responded, "Because she has PLANS. PERIOD." She abruptly hoped on her broom and rode off, presumably to go scare some small children and villagers.

I find it amusing how it was just assumed I would be willing to give up my summer all for the enjoyment of watching a child who isn't mine. Hell, my own kids are going to summer school for the month of June. Perhaps if I was treated with an iota of respect by the swamp hag I would watch him. But I'm not. So, I don't do favors for assholes.

This heinous hell-hound of a woman bullies everyone she comes in contact with. Dh, his family, numerous co-workers, even her new hubby (aka the hostage). I'll be damned if she'll bully me. Like Elizabeth Bennett in 'Pride and Prejudice' says, "My courage always rises with each attempt to intimidate me."

Dh tried to pull the old standard, "but it would be a favor to me, not twat waffle" card. I told him to save it. I do nothing for her convenience. And if that puts you in a tough spot, then that's what you get for not handling her when she started screwing with us years ago. Nobody puts Princess Mofo in a corner.

I remember that look when I

I remember that look when I told DSO that my babysitting services were cancelled. Sadly, the ones he found kicked his kids out within a month each.

That's when he had to go to a 20 hour work week. It taught him a very valuable lesson, he never ever leaves me alone with SS15 or ever suggests it.

The sh*t thing is, ss is a

The sh*t thing is, ss is a very decent and good kid. We had a couple of rough spots in the beginning but for the most part he's really good to me. This is all about principle and being a "hill to die on". I do nothing for his mother's pleasure or convenience. So if that makes things a little rough for dh, oh well... I don't ask him to watch my kids on his days off, especially if ss isn't there.

This whole thing made me

This whole thing made me laugh from the imagery of her getting on a broom to terrorize villagers and children to "I don't do favors for assholes" (my momma says that) to the Elizabeth Bennett quote (Oh I love Pride and Prejudice so) to your Dirty Dancing reference. You're my hero.
