Such strong denial in DH....
Yesterday DH's SM came over. I love his SM. She is the only parent he had that I think tried to parent him and teach him right. Anyways we are all talking and of course DH had to bring up his wonderful little SD even though she wasn't there at the time. He tells SM. SD didn't make cheer this year. It was the first year she had to actually try out. There is still a lot of political BS going on there like the previous years.....Mmmmkay....that denial is strong DH. Maybe it isn't political BS and mean cheer coaches but the fact that SD forgot 1/2 the moves and words to the try out danc

BS has an injury :/
My son hurt his foot while jumping on the trampoline with other kids. Unlike BM I didn't determine that it was the trampoline's fault b/c we don't have a net...gasp....Anyways, usually BS will walk off an injury quickly but he seemed to be really hurt this time and couldn't put weight on his foot. I had him stay home, elevate it, ice it and rest it on Monday. Well he was still in pain on Tuesday so I got him into the dr and got an xray done. Thankfully no break but dr advised it could be an occult fracture which doesn't always show up immediately so if pain persisted we should go back i

SD did NOT make the team!
It wasn't our weekend to have SD so DH text her to see if she made the team. He also tried calling her. SD ignored both so I assumed she did not make the team and was pouting about it. I was right. BM texted DH to let him know that SD did not make the team and went on about how they said they were going to take more girls and decided not to and it was the same B word coaches that were in charge of the competitive team. After BM sent that information SD then calls DH to whine about how unfair it was that all the girls that made the cheer team were already on the competitive team so why

SD tried out for cheer
If you read my previous blogs I believe I mentioned that SD and BM decided she wouldn't do cheer anymore b/c of injuries/etc so she was going to do ice skating and softball (obviously much safer sports, lol). Anyways, SD decided that she was going to try out for regular cheer (not competitive). This is the first year she has to actually try out for regular cheer. Before it was anyone interested in regular cheer made the team regardless of skill and competitive you try out for. I'm not sure why they changed their minds on trying out but whatever.

Time for a new prediction
DH got SD last night to make up for not getting her Thursday night. Ugh, I wish he didn't feel the need to make up every little bit of time he misses with her but I get that he wants to see her. Anyways, he comes in and tells me that SD is now done with cheer and gymnastics, she is only going to do softball and ice skating. Wow, bright idea BM. I'm sure she will do so much better at softball and ice skating and won't get hurt as often *huge eye roll* I tell DH, "you know she will be getting hurt playing softball" and he is in obvious denial.

Game time
This past weekend we decided to buy/play monopoly. I always loved monopoly as a kid. It is fun and it is strategic. I was excited we got it to play with the kids. My excitement quickly faded once the game started and SD was involved. There is a rule that I don't remember as a kid but I guess now when you land on a property if it isn't already owned by someone you either have to buy it or the banker auctions it off. Every time there was a property being auctioned off SD would bid the highest (even higher than the actual property value) to "win" and then when she realized she bid more t

Another Dr. Visit
DH just informed me that he will be getting SD late for her visit tonight because BM is taking her to the dr for another spider bite. I just found this amusing. First of all I didn't even know about the first spider bite. DH said the first time she had a spider bite it looked like she got punched in the face. I honestly don't recall ever hearing about this 1st spider bite and I know I didn't see SD with a swollen face any time recently. Knowing SD and her constant need for attention I am sure she would have made a big deal out of it and I would have noticed her face if it was that bad.

What having a SM has taught me....
Since I have myself I have experienced some things that I never want to do to my skid. As much as my skid annoys me I wouldn't want to hurt her like my SM does me. I have always been respectful of my SM and her relationship with my dad. I try not to ask them for anything. Actually I usually only take help from them if they offer it. I quit doing that though b/c a lot of times that is used against me to justify other crappy behavior on my SMs behalf. Having a SM has taught me that I do not want my skid to feel like she makes me feel. I always try very hard to treat my skid right. I j

SD's Serious Knee Injury Update
I just wanted to post an update on the "serious" injury that I was sure would last up until my wedding day. Turns out the day that DH called her out on everything and she was "to distraught" to visit us the Physical Therapist took her off her remaining crutch.

Shocking Update
Well I am now officially married and my shocking update is that BM and SD didn't cause any problems or drama or anything on my special day! It was pretty much a blizzard out and BM even still brought SD and picked her up from the wedding (I was pretty shocked about that also). For once my predictions on SD/BM were wrong!!! I'm actually happy to be wrong in this case.
