As part of my disengagement, there are things I no longer take responsibly for. Dh is fully aware of what is now his job to handle these things. But he's taking the lazy way out and not dealing with it. I shall vent over these things here so that I can keep my mouth shut at home without exploding.

What does your ideal dream life look like?

I'm sure we all fantisize about what our ideal life would be, I know that do. Like what if I won the lottery... My "dream life" has changed over the years and I was thinking about it a bit last night. The skids haven't been a part of my fantasy future life for a while...they used to be there...but not anymore. But a realization has surprised me.....dh isn't there anymore either.

OT- whats done is done, but did i overreact?

Step-MIL posted a pictures of new nephew to dh's Facebook wall with the caption...."Mr. Nephew, the greatest thing to happen in 2012". Cute right...excited grandma? Except for the fact that our bs-8months was also born in 2012.

It would be one thing to post that on her own wall, or o SILs wall.....but posting it on dh's wall was just a slap on the face. He was enraged but decided to just delete the post rather than start some juvenile crap on FB that makes him look petty. Smart move.

Had a week away....now its harder than ever to deal with it all

My grandmother passed away the day after Christmas and I flew back home with my boys for a week to attend the services. I could have gone for a week and a half with my work schedule, but dh was in a panic over having to be on his own with the skids and I didn't push it. He actually wanted me to fly up the day of the wake and fly home the day of the funeral so that I would only be gone one night, smh.

Small (and maybe petty): but stuff like this really makes me wonder..

Note: SIL and SD have the same name.

I had found a really great family type present for sil and her kids. Eh had previously said that he wasn't getting them anything for Xmas. But he frequently says things and then when he calms down changes his mind.

So I asked him last night... I know you said before that you werent getting her anything, but were you planning on getting anything for sil and the kids for Xmas, because I have a great idea if you've changed your mind.

They dont need consiquences according to dh

Bs3 had a grumpy day at school yesterday. So when we got home I told him that his consiquence for not listening at school was that he doesn't get to have any dessert after dinner. He accepts this without complaint and appologizes for having a bad day at school. Dh over heard this and here is the conversation that followed.

really dude? really?!?

SS is only a few weeks from turning 11. And he still believes in Santa and the tooth fairy.

Apparently he lost another tooth last week. He didn't mention it to me, either it happened on a day he got in trouble at school, or a rare day Dh picks them up from daycare. He come to me last night with a tooth in a baggie asking if I could see a cavity in the tooth, because he has had it under his pillow for two weeks and the tooth fairy hasn't come. I was speachless for a minutes, shocked that he had no clue. I almost said somethin g to him, but bs3 was right next to me.
