DH upset i didnt get SD8 any gifts

But I told him 2 months ago I wasn't getting him or his daughter any gifts. I don't understand the blow up. What I did notice is that it took Christmas for him to notice that he has been pissing on my holidays.

Quick recap, DH and SD have made every holiday horrible so I stopped celebrating them with them this year. He didn't notice our birthdays (within days of each other) he acted like a jerk on Mothers day so I spent it away from him, not a thing for fathers day. She was defiant, ungrateful and bratty on each holiday. But he blew up about Christmas.

DH Finally taking some advice

When DH first took BM to court for visitation he was dead set on not upsetting her too much and he rejected all my suggestions on what to ask for. What he got was: fathers day, a month in the summer and an agreement to discuss holidays.

I rolled my eyes at "to discuss" but he was happy. You can probably guess how that has gone but I'll spell it out. BM has had Thanksgiving and DH a few hours on Christmas. Annd every year it starts out as SD is sick so she can't come over or BM is uncomfortable.

Boiling about this

SD7 hit another child with a stick.

We have a roommate with a 7 year old son. Most times SD7 and he play together nicely but it mostly comes down to SD trying to get the boy in trouble for something. She succeeds. I have been disengaged but I had to step in.

DH wants me to say sorry - o/t

Long story and mostly about taco meat.

I had a function at work where I volunteered to bring the taco beef. DH said he would cook it when I mentioned it to him 2 weeks prior. The day before the meat is needed DH goes and hangs out with his friends. I call him before I go to sleep asking if he remembered. He didn't. He said he would get the meat and cook it while I was sleeping.

Insurance Thing Happened but Not How I Thought it Would

I posted months ago about SD7 needing braces and adding her to my insurance. Well that died down but now the problem is health insurance.

SD was on Medicaid/care but now BM has "earned out" of eligablity. I wish there was some kind of way to transition people out of that program instead of "you make 3 cents more and hour so you can afford everything now" but such is the situation.

Knew it was going to happen

My cat died a few weeks ago. At first i was all for getting a new kitty but as the options were getting real, I wasn't too sure. We, DH and I, were supposed to pick one out. His friend was only available Sunday which is the dreaded visitation day. I knew that if we did it that day SD was going to pick it out.

Its not like she doesn't have her own cat at her house with her mom. I thought I made it clear with DH that I wanted to pick the cat out. I found my first cat and rescued him and we had a really tight bond before these interlopers came in our life.
