so embarrassed by ss16 clothing
i dont even know where to start....i've been on this site before but the children started spending more time at their mother's house as that's their full time residence adn they both now have full time jobs,... or well did during the summer. we went out for supper last night as a family and ss16 shows up in shoes that should be for mowing the lawn ONLY. these are DH's hand me downs that have since fallen apart. there are holes in the shoes where they have ripped at the seams on the side and top. His shirt was also a DH hand me down that now looks as if he caught it on barbed wire.

ss16 moving in
Ss16 wants to move in with us due to stepdad being a pain in the ass. He's telling both skids that he is their dad and not my DH because they are with him more than DH. I haven't ever had a conversation with BM or stepdad because DH and BM do not get along at all. I don't want anything to do with this woman anyway! There's been so many things that I do not agree with the most recent being the threatening of DH with continuing to pay her money for ss18 even though the decree has DH no longer obliged to pay her.

not just skids
so we were in walmart last night getting a few things and while walking down an isle there were these 2 kids, i'd say 3ish in age in carts next to each other screaming at each other because it was echoing. they'd scream and laugh and scream and laugh. the two women that were with them appeared to be a very young mother and her mother. the grandma says to one of the kids, "what happened to you, you used to be so quiet" i turned to my husband and not so quietly said "because you're not teaching them to NOT behave that way in public"

what is BM up to???
ss16 let it out the last visit that BM is thinking of adopting 2 little kids, girls....
what is this woman up to?? it has never been a secret she wanted girls and her new hubby had one but she's now graduating HS like ss18 and will be leaving. she will still have ss16 and her new baby 4 - also a boy. so why not pay attention to your other two kids - boys, lets get 2 new girls!!! this woman's out of her mind. good for her for taking in needy kids, but i'm sure there's motive here. there is no way our support should go up because she chooses to adopt right???

thanks skid for ruining my weekend
DH and i had a plan to take a nice bike ride this weekend and go golfing. BM calls at 8 says skids dont have school and ss16 is coming down for the weekend.
DH's new thing is not wanting to leave and do US things when the skids come. everything leaving them at home must be dropped just incase they want to spend time with Dh. DH will still work outside but there is no more bike ride or golfing for the two of us. i'm thinking i'm still going to go golfing. i DONT see the point in dropping everything for them because that just reiterates that everything stops for them.

graduation gift
i was going to take ss18 shopping for stuff he'd need for his college dorm as a graduation gift....well he has decided to stay at BM's house instead of living on campus.
i feel so disappointed in skid for not branching out in the world adn getting out from under bm. i'm really torn now - i dont want to get him anything because i dont think he'd be smart with cash, DH is planning on buying his books. he really wont have any more expenses than that.....
is it wrong to not give the kid anything major if at all???
