You will never have your ducks in a row.

OMG, I'm a blog hog now!! I just got an email from the woman who owns the studio where I work out. She is trying to keep us motivated and healthy while the studio is closed for Covid. Anyway she said she hates to hear the phrase, "I need to get my ducks in a row before I...." and then filled in the blank with get healthy, start a business, get a new job or leave a bad relationship. Then she said "you will never have your ducks in a row" and it's procrastination to say this for something we are afraid to do. She is right, it is always something that is holding up back if we let it.

I just want to say I love you guys

I just want to say I love you guys. I see some of the funniest stuff here that makes my day. The constant sarcastic remarks and name calling etc. I love it! You are my tribe. I really wish we were all neighbors and hung out on the weekends in my backyard. Although I don't want to live near some of your skids. Some of them sound dangerous!!

Can we talk about emotional incest for a minute?

I've started spying on my husbands iMessages because at times it is the only way to find out what is going on in my own home. I know it is not really ok but the relationship is pretty much over, I'm just protecting myself at this point. I stopped him from signing $100,000+ in loans for his daughter who will soon drop out of school, even BM says she won't finish and DH agreed but had I not initiated this he just would have gone along with it and signed the loans for tuition, books and a luxury apartment, hell NO. My kids lived in squaller in college and loved it!!

so much regret

I don't think I love my husband anymore. I've seen him at his most pathetic moments. He just texted SD18 while she is driving to work...just HEY. Why? She's driving from her eyebrow appt to work and you know this so why text  "HEY." I could sit all day and critique his every move. He is a piss poor parent with f'd up kids due to his behavior. He has made his kids so needy that SD18 is pushing her boyfriend away with her needy behavior.  I won't even get in to SD21s behavior and the constant attention she needs from her parents. The 2 boys have issues too.

More impressive news!

If you thought it was awesome that SD21 passed the syllabus quiz, wait there's more. She got a 9/10 and an 81 on her quizzes this week. She has a group chat with BM and DH that she sends screenshots of her scores so they can say great job SD!! When she starts failing the screen shots will stop, happens every semester. She has about 7or 8 semesters under her belt if you include summers and she is still a freshman but she is having a fresh start at a new University so this time it will be different. This time, she is serious. Well this time DH is not paying for it nor is he co-signing.

Proud step mom moment

SD21 sent BM and DH a group message that she has an A in her class that started Monday. She sent the screenshot of the page saying she got a 10/10 on the syllabus quiz. I was so wrong about her being a failure. I eat my words. She is going to be a huge success!

protecting myself financially with secret life insurance

 A while back I blogged about a student loan that DuH was going to co sign for his irresponsible daugter that with 12% interest was going to cost in the end $100,000+ over 15 years after she finished school. She already borrowed 12 or 13,000 last year and then she would borrow 15,000 for the next 2 years. Turns out after 3 years of college, she is still a freshman so she will have another year than she thought she would so another 15,000, I'm guessing with interest and missed payments etc it will cost her $150,000 if she pays it back.

Anyone sage cleanse??

SD21 is moving out. She has not been around most of the summer, she stays with her aunt.  I have also been gone for the better aprt of the last month either at my son's house or at my parent's house. I am taking over her room and my husband is building me a deck and I'm turning it in to a home office but I will also sleep in there if things go sour, which they usually do.

love being an author

So I'm writing a novel about a 31 year old woman gets involved with a 40 year old man with 2 kids and ends up pregnant, married and dealing with 2 unruly skids, a Disney dad of a husband and an ours baby who is stuck being raised in Stephell.  I started writing in January and have a list of things that will happen to step mom, like getting stuck with the kids, getting treated poorly, pretty much my life but I change the details A LOT and I definitely over dramatize it for effect.

Please tell me to be nice! Help!

Please tell me to be nice and considerate of SD21s feelings but she is acting like a complete asshole.  BM lied to SD, stole from SD and fraudulently used SDs bank account at age 17 and the account was closed by the bank.  I think she forged SDs signature, not sure because the bank wouldn't talk to DH since he was not on the account and you can never get the truth from BM or SD who defends that asshole but didn't talk to BM much for a couple years due to the betrayal she felt.  The stealing and bank fraud happened shortly after she left SD and the 3 younger siblings on the street(ages 17, 1
