my fault like always
Today I was looking for the remote for the tv in sd/bd's room. Looked everywhere but couldn't find it. When looking in sd's dresser she has one drawer full of notebooks and misc things (junk drawer). I opened one and it was dated 11/28/09. She wrote in there "problems: I'm sooooo mad. well I've been sooo mad since my mom and dad broke up. Gossip: Jen76 is MEAN!!!! Fixing your problems: well this one's a toughey. I can't put them back together but I see them so I just pretend I see my dad when he's working and that my mom and dad really are together." WTH????

I think I'm more irritated
I think I'm more irritated than anything about this. So this past weekend SD was here and H's Uncle's were in town so we had a mini family reunion at his Aunt's house. It was great- tons of BBQ, music, all the kids played and swam. Mostly immediate family, my parents and some close friends. SD knew we were having it and obviously told BM about it. SD never says anything on the way home from H picking her up, but always waits until she gets to our house and I'm there to hear anything she has to say.

How young is too young
How young is too young to shave your legs? Seriously, I can't remember back that far. SD just turned 10 y/o and she she said that her mom let her shave her legs. All I said was really? you are too young to shave your legs! SD can't even cut her pancakes or any meat and her mom is actually giving her a razor to use on her body. I was in such sock I didn't even ask the important questions like did she teach you HOW to do it or just hand you a razor and figure it out? (which is what probably happened) I went and asked H if she had told him and she just had.

SD is thrilled
So we told SD about her new baby sister. She couldn't have been more excited!! H gave her the puzzle right before getting to the family event and she didn't figure it out that it said "we're having a baby". Our son and I went to the car to greet her. He didn't have time to tell her so when she opened the gift she was a little confused. She said how cute, it's so little, what is it for? H said- well, your gonna have a little sister. Her eyes got big and her jaw dropped. Are you serious? For real??? As a 10 y/o would say it.

Opinions needed- finally telling SD that we're pregnant
Ok, so we didn't end up tell SD about the baby 3 weeks ago. We missed our last visit last weekend b/c H had to work all weekend. This was the first visit we ever had to cancel in the 5 years we have been together, but was much needed for me. We planned on getting SD for Easter weekend, but BM "forgot" to tell us they had an egg hunt to go to- therefore H would have only gotten SD for 24 hours. Not a big deal to H (surprised me)- we will just wait for our regular scheduled EOW this weekend.
Wish me luck!
Wish me luck! We are finally telling SD this weekend that we are pregnant again. I'm really not looking forward to it as I don't think she will be very happy. Not to mention the headache that BM is probably going to cause from now until the baby is born.

I don't know why this pisses me off
I don't know why this pisses me off so bad, but it does. Spring Break is next week for SD and it is BM's year to have her. Parenting time starts when she gets out of school (yesterday) until she goes back March 16th. We did it last year and had to pay someone $100 to watch her the whole week which we couldn't afford in the first place. We are on a very tight budget and any extra expenses are pretty impossible, but we did it. This would have been our "normal weekend", but since it isn't our year for spring break it gets cancelled. Do you think I could get a break? Nope!!

Thanksgiving weekend already ruined
My night started off crappy from the minute I left work. H calls me to tell me that our son had just thrown up on our bedroom floor(carpet)and what should he do? Um, wipe it up. I wouldn't be home for another 30-45 minutes and didn't want it soaking in. He complained about it, but did it. (and not very well by the way) As soon as I walk in the door he tells me that he had talked to SD and she wants to come this weekend. Are you F-ing kidding me??? First of all this isn't our year to have her for Thanksgiving which cancels out our regularly scheduled weekend.

Not Step Related...therapy for myself
H and I found out this past Sunday that we were pregnant. We were so thrilled but I was concerned because I was spotting and didn't have any bleeding when pregnant with my son. I scheduled an appointment Monday to make sure everything was ok. It had been 6 weeks since my last period, but I just got off the pill and I was never regular before getting on them 15 years ago. I didn't think I was that far along (maybe 4 weeks) so when they did a sonogram and didn't find a gestational sac it didn't worry me too much.

SD wants me to be friend on Myspace
We just got done with our month summer visit from SD. She has been asking for a myspace account since she got here. I told her she was too young (9) and so did DH. She asked BM and she said it was ok. I made sure it was ok with DH and he said if BM said yes, then ok. I set it up for her b/c BM is an idiot and probably wouldn't be able to do it. Plus I wanted to make sure it was private and no body could look at it unless they where her friend. She only has 5 friends and 3 are older cousins on our side, an Uncle on our side and a friend from back home.
