Puke is busted

over step's picture

Last night I noticed that the shade in the bathroom window was up which is not normal. It was dark so I closed it still suspicious.

I just looked out that window. The screen in the window was pushed up to the top of the window and there are used matches on the roof outside the window. Now we know Puke smokes at BM's but is not allowed here. I sent DH a text playing stupid asking if he had been out on the roof with matches. No but he knows who it was. Puke. He'll have a talk with her tonight.

BUSTED!!!

Indifferent

This weekend has been a revelation for me. Those things Puke does that gets under my skin and irritates me to the point of going hostile, don't seem to have had as much affect on me these past 2 days. I'm still irritated but try to find the entertainment value in it and have a good inner laugh about it.

I just hid something in the bathroom that Puke did not put back in it's proper place. I know, Sally, I should have trashed it but I was thinking how comical it would be just thinking of her frantically looking for it. Then her wondering how in the world it got THERE.

DH got my back

BM called DH yesterday to discuss changing visitation to one week a month instead of EOW. DH said he was fine with but isn't sure Puke will be and doesn't want to make her cuz she'll make our lives miserable if she's made to. I agree. I don't want an angry teen for a week.

Then he tells me that Puke tells BM that when she is here for a week that she and I can't talk during the day cuz I'm working. How is that any different than I was going into the office every day? And she doesn't talk to me when I'm not working. WTF!!

Unpleasant turn of events

Puke(sd16) is coming this weekend for her regular visit and staying until Tuesday evening. (Not cool!) When DH asked Puke what she was doing with pup she replied that she guessed she'd leave it with BM. (Oh really?!)

So not only do I have to go out to eat with Puke but now I have to endure her two extra days. (Oh joy.) Sweet baby Jesus, what did I do to offend thee?

Pup drama continues

MIL offered to keep puke's pup this weekend. Now she isn't coming Saturday to take us out for Puke's birthday. (Oh darn. So disappointed that I don't get to go.) MIL doesn't want to leave pup with elderly FIL while she is gone. I totally understand but DH is pretty upset with her. Not exactly sure why. MIL is still watching the pup. What's to be upset about?

Oh the drama. I think it's comical. DH is making this pup his problem and being ungrateful when his mom is doing him a favor. I have a feeling she won't volunteer next time. I don't blame her.

Self-reflection

over step's picture

In the last year or two I have slowly let myself go (put on a few extra pounds, just haven't had the motivation to follow through on a beauty regime and don't have that spark to do things). It's like I've lost a bit if who I used to be.

I work from home so I am in sweats/yoga pants all day with my hair in a pony and no makeup. I don't have the routine of having to "get ready" and going into the office every day. I love working from home and not having the office politics/drama is less stressful but I'm not feeling motivated.

Puke's birthday

over step's picture

DH informed me last night MIL will be coming over next Saturday when Puke(sd15) is supposed to be here to take us all out for Puke's birthday. *Sigh* Thanks for the warning. That gives me a week to prepare myself to fake being happy to be celebrating Puke's birthday. How do you celebrate someone who IMO does not deserve it after how she treats her dad? I need to find a way to make this entertaining for me. Don't have a clue how but there has to be a way.

Interesting statement

Someone posted this on Facebook and I wholeheartedly believe it.

"Children need to learn to take responsibility for their actions so that they do not become adults believing nothing is ever their fault."

Now Puke is only 15 but she already believes that nothing is ever her fault.
