"Dad, Mum said she is disappointed that you didn't buy anything for Nuna"

This is what SS14 said to DH last night on their video call. SS14 is in Cyprus visiting BM2 for another week.

Let me back up and explain. Several years ago when BM2 and DH were divorced but both still living in Cyprus, BM2 decided to have a Cypriot Christening in a Greek Catholic church. Mainly because her Cypriot bf and his family's influence. DH was never invited. BM2 told him after the event that he wasn't "allowed" to go because he'd be too embarrassing.

I do have a good BM in my step world!

BM1 and DH have been divorced for donkey's years. Any b.s. they went through is decades over and I think most of it was perpetuated by BM2 anyway. Surprise, surprise. Anywho, thought I'd share a good BM story.

SS35 was supposed to host a not-surprise surprise party for DH this past weekend. DH knew as he'd have to drive to SS35's house. For some reason, the party was cancelled because a friend of SS35's couldn't make the party. That's a whole other story that I won't go into.

No, BM2, you aren't allowed at the funeral

My MIL passed away this past Sunday. She was a very nice lady but I had only known her a few years so it's not too upsetting for me. DH, however, is heartbroken understandably. I have been helping him and FIL any way they need me to. Mostly I just let DH grieve and be sad.

So money hungry vulture GU BM2 starts poking her nose up DH's backside because MIL has died. As this means DH is 1/2 the way closer to his inheritance. CHA CHING! BM2 is all of a sudden nicey nice and butt kissey. Barf.

Someone kick me for engaging too much!

About two weeks or so ago, I noticed one of our phone chargers was missing. There are really nice built-in cabinets in the dining room with 4 outlets and usually 4 chargers for all the electronic gizmos we have. One of them went missing and I know I didn't move it. DH insisted I took that charger upstairs and put it in the master bedroom but I know it wasn't that one.

Pooper has finally been officially diagnosed

Finally a small team of doctors really listened to DH and did a thorough examination of Pooper. They said he is definitely well within the autistic spectrum. Yeah, no kidding! So DH will finally have the magic piece of paper that will open up all the resources for Pooper to get help.

Me? I am not expecting much. DH and BM2 are two of the worst people to have a special needs child that actually requires work and effort. We'll see. He will be able to access all sorts of groups and helping what-nots but DH has to do the research and legwork to get it all rolling.

Pooper strikes again

SS13 was supposed to be leaving for the 5 day France school trip. That didn't happen. Why? Well because he decided just last week that pooping was, yet again, an option and got all backed up and then leaked. When he came down for dinner, he passed DH and DH could smell it. Asked SS13 have you messed yourself? No, he says, I just farted. No you didn't, go wash yourself and change your clothes.

OT most frustrating job experience ever!

And I haven't even started yet...and won't be as I told them to poke it!

This company offered me the job on the 9th of June. Since then I have basically had to assist the manager at doing a small portion of her job. So far, this is what has happened:

- I provided her with two job references. She emailed me herself confirming that she has these job references.

- One week later, she asks me to follow up on obtaining one of the job references. I had to forward her own email and said you already have both of my job references.

Your crazy is showing...

So SS13 now has a Facebook account. I monitor it every day because, you know, Porn Boy. Which means I have the unpleasant task of coming across his "mother's" posts since he's friends with her. Anywho, she posted something last night and it just sums her up perfectly. It's a post of two people texting and it says:

Person 1: I just ended a 5 year relationship

Person 2: Omg are you okay?

Person 1: I'm fine - it wasn't my relationship

Another helpless skid story

SS13 brought down the garbage can from his room to empty it into the kitchen garbage can. It was full already so when he dumped all the contents, it became too full and not everything fit. After spending a minute watching him pick up things off of the floor and try to stuff everything in the can only to have it all fall out again, I said:
