SD22 just decided that she is excluding us from her life! ahhhhhh!
It all started because of the babyshower and her not including me, and sending separate invitations to everyone in the house, but me (actually it started from the moment we got married, no, it started when we were dating, but I digress). So my husband stood up to her and told her since she chose to exclude me and my daughter from the babyshower and be hurtful that he would not be attending the shower.
What to do about SS18 Who is Graduated .....
He graduated in June from high school, and had a one day per week job all summer long. So pretty much all summer long he got to do whatever he wanted all day long (play video games, hang out with friends, watch tv, etc). Well, here it is nearly 5 months later -- he was still working one day a week, and now he is taking one class that takes up one full day plus 3 hours of another day during his week. So this means that he has basically 2 days (8 hours on each of those days) and 3 hours on another day that he is busy. Otherwise, he is playing video games or watching television.

SD22's Babyshower ----arg ....at it again... will it ever end
So today was actually having a good day, I should have known not to do that. Today in the mail, four SEPARATE invitations came, one for my husband addressed to him only, one addressed to just SS21, one addressed just to SD16, and one addressed just to SS18. These were for SD22's babyshower, which is supposed to be a "couples" babyshower. I was purposefully left out. I was furious. If she had just invited the family, I would not have gone and all would have been well. No big deal. No need to drive the dagger further into my heart now is there.
My DH finally told SD22 not welcome at the house!
Well, he finally did it. He finally told SD22 that she is not welcome at the house -- at all! :jawdrop: I couldn't believe it. Not that she's just not welcome when I'm not here, but not welcome at all. I told him the other day that if he didn't tell her that I would tell her myself. She showed up two different days this week, and seeing her makes me physically ill.

We've had a dog for five years.....but yet, the skids seem to forget every day!!
We got a dog shortly after we were married. She was a rescue beagle. Sure I wanted to have her, but youngest skid, SD16 (now) -- she was 11 at the time, begged to have the dog. Of course, I've fallen in love with the dog now, and she's turned into more or less my baby. So now, the skids talk mean about her now, make crude comments about her, won't take care of her unless I'm begging them, etc. I have to literally throw a friggin' fit to make sure that she is taken care of if I'm not here.
It's Something Different Every Day with the SKIDS
So periodically I check SD22's Facebook page to get a "temperature" on where things are. My DH was telling me that she was "warming" back up to me. I didn't believe him. This week I sent over with him a stroller that went with the carseat that I had already given her. The woman that I got the carseat from gave me the stroller to go with it. So rather than giving it to someone else, I told my DH to go ahead and take it over to SD22.
Even last week I was shopping and saw a cute diaper bag that I knew she would like and thought about getting it -- very glad I didn't get it.

My birthday today -- everyone but skids did something
So everybody BUT the skids did something for me today on my birthday. I know, there's a shocker. Okay, they said happy birthday after their dad came in with the cake this evening and the pizza, but that was it. They all have Facebok pages so they all knew it was my birthday today because they are all on facebook -- they didn't even wish me happy birthday on facebook. Not even SS21 who is away at college. Couldn't make himself do it I guess. He barely talked to me the last time he was home either. Oh well. Such is life.
I feel totally spent and have had it with SKIDS
So my SD16 is really giving us a run for our money lately. Found out while we were in Vegas she went out on the town and was out past curfew (never asked to go out), had a bunch of friends over and that SS18 had friends over also, and while we were out of town for one night SD16 also went out again and was out until 2 am -- 2 hours past curfew. Again did not ask or tell us even that she was going out. I found out because one of her idiot friends posted pics on facebook.

SD16 at it AGAIN!
I know I shouldn't be shocked -- and I'm not. We grounded SD16 from her phone for the summer because she had really bad grades at the end of the school year. She is entering her junior year this year in high school. She had under a 2.0 at the end of the school year. She did terribly.
When she was given the phone, the agreement was that she had to get As and Bs on her report card. She has shown that she is capable of doing this, so we didn't think this would be a problem.

Absolutely Livid Today!!! SD16 this time....following in big sister's footsteps
My SD16 cleaned out her bedroom the other day and left the garbage in the garage because we didn't have room in the garbage can. I was putting some garbage into the can today, and noticed a bunch of recyclable material in the garbage can so I began to take it out and put it in the recycling can to make more room in our garbage can --- to make it last for the entire week. It was my SD16s garbage.
