A bit of back story.. DH made a suggestion to SS20 of ways to save money (DH supports him while he is in college). SS20 didn't want to take that suggestion and wanted to do something his way. DH was like okay no worries, and told me he had valid reasons for doing it his way. The extra money was not an issue.

Then I found out he is not only doing it his more expensive way, but he added on additional expense, which were completely a waste of money. When I told DH, his comment to me was "Ain't it great to be young". :jawdrop:

For eight years BM was more interested in spending time with her BF (that she was seeing before she divorced my DH) than she was her kids. She would always put BF first over the kids and when they needed something instead of paying for it out of the large CS payment she got each month, she would tell them to ask their dad for it. Guilty dad (my DH) although he was struggling at the time to make ends meet, would buy them what they needed. All the while, BM was using that money to make BF happy. The kids hated BM's BF and never gave him a chance.

:? So yesterday I posted that SD23 offered to help with dinner. When I got home at 7:15 last night all of the stuff that I had asked her (very nicely) to do was not completed and she was at school. She is also now not answering my texts messages. When I point this out to DH he is like "well I guess she got busy".

I swear that from now on I am just going to my room when they are all there. UGH

This blog will be a two parter. My sweet DH took me on a 7 day cruise for my birthday last week. It was wonderful because it was just me and him. We had a wonderful relaxing time. We laughed and joked and spent the whole time together without all of the stress. He totally spoiled me all week. So I am happy.
