OMG- forgot to dish the latest on Loca Grande!
Princess went to meet up with Loca Grande on Wednesday for an eye doctor appointment. Once again Loca Grande was flashing money around and put up money for contacts. (Princess's eye sight isn;t that bad... She doesn't even wear her glasses 50% of the time.)
So anyway, Princess comes home late that evening, acting all weird and stressed. Around 11pm, she comes in our room in tears, that she has a big burden, a secret she can't tell anyone but she doesn't know what to do, because it's too big for her to handle...

Silence
Only me and Gibby are home. It's so cute that we are both sitting at laptops at the kitchen, enjoying a peaceful Saturday afternoon.
Lazy Boye went to see Loca Grande. WOn't be back till she drops him off at school Monday. (PS- She must have realized I was serious about not contacting me, because I have not heard from her in 9 days. I am thrilled!)
PITA is with my FIL.
Princess is at work.

PS- Not a good week...
... to decide to give up soda and french fries...
But I have started power walking each evening. I'm up to about a mile a night. I'm so loving the signs of spring!

don't even know where to start...
Monday night was that craphole we call stepmotherhood. Bad day at work, came home to messy house with no expectations from skids followed. They all wanted things, and didn't consider my day or my feelings. I won't go into details. Three days later, the details have lost their power to anyone but me...

I love therapy and having a personal arsenal of ideas...
I met with my counselor Friday. Loghead couldn't get off work, so he missed again. The doc and I discussed the events of my life since my last visit in January. She was proud of the progress I made, and wanted me to stick with my mantra, my disengagement and my happy journal. (She has me journal once a day where I have to list at least one positive thing of the day.)
I told her about Loghead telling me in an argument that he thought I should take Gibby and leave. I told her about how when they boys fought that night, he'd asked me "What did you do?"
I wonder about Loca Grande's spending spree
Loca Grande took 2 of the skids out for a spending spree last night. Princess brought along a friend, and Loca Grande even bought a prom dress for the friend?!?!?!?!
Lazy Boye has been begging for his own phone for years. He's 14, and until recently has not shown enough responsibility to earn one.
She's always calling me and leaving VM, "I miss Lazy Boye; have him call me."
Now that I have notified her husband that she is to no longer contact me, I'm wondering if she'll finally break down and get Lazy Boye a phone with her newfound wealth.

Can she get crazier?
I know I have cut communication with Loca Grande, but that doesn't mean I can't be amazed by her stupidity, and have to share it with my Step Friends...

I win craziest BM interaction of the day... And I grew a spine.
Loca Grande (BM) wants to take skids to Costa Rica next December for Christmas. She keeps leaving me messages for me to talk to Loghead (DH) about it. I've ignored her, but she has sent nearly 10 messages in the last 4 days. So I text her this morning and tell her I don't have the right to give an okay for her to take the skids out of the country, she has to talk to Loghead.
It's not going to change... Long vent
... it's not going to get any better. So what am I willing to give up? What do I have to let go of to be willing to make it work? A clean house? Skids who do what they're asked?
I'm tired. I don't want to keep asking myself if this is worth it. I've invested over 12 years of my life. We have a son. I don't feel like I can just walk away. I just want to be happy. So what do I have to give up to be happy?

"Not my problem"
I'm going to have to get this tattooed on my forehead, as a reminder to myself, and to let my family know their drama shouldn't be mine.
But, damn, I'm too nosy. I want to know what's going on. Someone needs to. Loghead is too damn ignorant of what's going on, and just lets it all happen. Why pick up the pieces afterwards, when many issues can be avoided?
