And now she emailed him

So after the stupid meeting and having a conversation about it, BM is now emailing SO a spreadsheet with the percentage points each prospective school has in each learning area. And we are talking about the majority being a 3-5% discrepancy between each school in each standard, ie; Our school district 73%, her school district 69%, and so on for each subject. Are we seriously debating a difference of LESS than 10%!?
I am going to need to dye my hair again this week, because I am getting grayer by the minute!

Still waiting to hear what happened...

SO went ahead and did the stupid meeting with BM anyway, which I said I didn't approve of and the reasons why; which also consequently replaced the meeting that WE wanted to have with SD because it was her bedtime when SO finally came home...
AND HE DIDN'T SAY ONE WORD TO ME ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED!!! Not the whole evening after that. Frankly, I was too sick of the topic to try and pry the information out, but I am curious to know what went on.

BM told Sd10 that she could "choose" to move out of our house, and she is not backing down

This all started when BM was throwing a fit about the middle school in our district not being good enough. Now she has just plain told her that it is her choice to pick whatever school she wants and whose house she is going to live in, and now SD10 is convinced that the whole decision is up to her, and guess what? She thinks she wants to move in with BM because we make her do chores and don't give her enough desserts/junk food.
Legally, she can't force us to let SD move out, but honestly if she is so miserable here and want to leave it's only a matter of time.

Wow, BM is such a great mom...

SD10 had an orchestra concert on Tuesday night, and BM didn't come. I asked SO if she was working or something, but of course the job is history after a whole 2 weeks of being an adult. She just "forgot" to show up. Even after being reminded by both SO and SD10 several times. I would like to see the shit storm and fits that would have been thrown by BM if SO had "forgotten " about something that he was supposed to go to for SD10. Good thing she isn't the custodial parent.

BM throwing a tantrum again

She is raising hell because SD10 is going to have to attend school in the school district that we actually live in next year because she is going into middle school. And the school district we live in doesn't have as high of a rating as the one she attends now. So now she is accusing SO of not caring about her education and sabotaging her entire future because she is going to attend a school with a lower rating.

Skid and chores...mostly venting

Skid is 10 and therefore is expected to pitch in. Both kids that live here (SD10 and DD8) have chore charts and the same set chores every week.

DD has several behavior issues and getting her to complete anything takes hours, and she can't be trusted with chemicals, so she has a few different chores than SD does. But somehow, SD thinks that because she doesn't have the behavior issues that she can half ass every single chore.

My crazy family again... not step-related

I almost forgot about the Christmas Day 2014 shunning incident, due to illness mentioned in previous post and feeling like I was hit by a truck.
A little backstory; my grandma has 2 sons, and my dad is not the "favorite."
The past 14 years I have not received anything from my grandmother and (then) grandfather for any holiday, including Christmas. I had just chalked it up to no longer being a child. This was until I found out from my half sister that all of our younger brothers were receiving cards with $100 for Christmas.

I know I am petty, but venting makes me feel better

I hate how I am the last person to find things out.

I had to make plans for dropping off my son on Sunday afternoon, and I told his father that SO would take him when he went to pick up SD10 from BM. Then, come to find out, MIL and StepFIL had taken SD10 that weekend and they are dropping her off at 6pm Sunday. So now I have to get a hold of DS father and make new arrangements with him.
