My jilted proposal / Mr. Used to have it

Not to blog hog but two stories in one! Yay I feel the years coming for me.

So in past blogs you've seen how DH takes talks about BM being just... Fun

Their AC broke 3 weeks ago. It was fixed in a day

Did that stop BM ? Nope. She takes the kids from home every few days to stay at a hotel. And switched hotels as out here you have to give a reason to stay currently.

Did that stop BM from having the kids playing with other kids ? Per the kids.. no.

Some happy news - I have a pretty great SM

So there's a ton of negative blogs on ( mine included) so let's get some happy stuff here

My dad started dating my SM when I was around ten or so. While I love my dad he can be a piece of work. My SM is straight up and extremely honest. Also never drinks , uses, really the woman just has cats as her weakness.

So I called my dad's house and got my step mom. We talked for 30 minutes straight and while as the kid it isn't my place to know she explained why my dad was being insane a few weeks back.

Why it's different

Please note above says "why it's different" not "stepdads have it easier" This is my situation

I'm a weird person. I constantly over process information to the point I rarely sleep.

Something that my DH always says kind of bothered me " it wasn't so hard for me"

Now while I can get into the obvious - her kid did not have a present father, you had time to build a relationship etc. Here's where I figured out the actual issue to a pinpoint.

Am I a mask monster?

About 2 weeks ago I bought masks off Etsy. More so in case they become mandatory but I've been wearing mine to pick up things at the corner shop etc

I bought me and DH two and one for each of the stepkids. I bought them strictly for our household.

BM has been pretty reckless. This is of course outside looking in but their AC broke so they stayed at a hotel for a few days. Completely understood.

The kids ended up "making friends " at the pool. Normally blood would boil but I'm starting to let go. I have no control . DH won't say sh-- so I'll stay out of the drama.

Welcome to the Crazy

We apparently have lots of fun and games

So today me and DH go through Easter groceries because I remembered it was this coming weekend with the kids.

So he actually heartfelt helped out. Ham, egg , egg dye, candy etc . It was awesome that he was helping. Truly it felt so great to get feedback. I don't really care about Easter but having that list. Having the stuff for the kids. I started to feel better

BM is taking the dumbass crown. DH may be the princess

Truly. I'm honestly beyond words at this point. Like wow. Ok.

Well DH picks up SD7 today. Brings her home in in a meeting. When I get out and start cooking

" BMs sister is bringing their cousins to visit. "

Naturally I have to hide the rage. But when I step out on the porch I quietly go into how ridiculous this is. BMs clan lives two states away. Traveling is not ideal right now.

" Well they are already driving there so what can I do ?"

And then he said some not nice things in a not nice tone regarding me caring. Lovely.

Has steptalk made you a better or worse step parent?

My DH knows I'm on some form of step parent vent site. He does not pry because he has decent privacy boundaries

I bring up hypothetical questions based on you guys A LOT

Like:

What if one of the kids just wants us not BM at her graduation?

If BM taught daycare and the kids were a little older would we have them over with the current virus ?

What are your views on kids in the household after high school?

What would you do if we have a child and your kids cause a fuss?

Why are you calling?

Sorry to blog hog but I'm having a very weird week and BM keeps calling DH and I'm frustrated.

So last week BM takes the kids to the dentist ( DH got them dental a few months ago) both have extreme cavities. Want to guess why? Both were using bottles until 5 or 3 respectively. So anyone with a dumb spouse allowing that- make it stop at your home.

Some odd backstorysle

Well I'm sad and angry so I figured this would be the time to give a tell all and to scare younger members out of this situation. It's long but I promise to paragraphs to not kill our eyeballs collectively.

Young lady T got married at 19 after being engaged after high school to someone she started dated 2 months prior.

Lady T had a husband 7 years older and while abusive and terrible both parties tried to make it work. It flat out didn't and lady T got screwed as she tried to stick to the divorce decree while ex just took all he could
