You know what? I have NO nicknames for my family members.
So you know what? I'd like to hear suggestions from you guys as to what members of my family should be called, INCLUDING ME (LOL).
My posts could be more funny (even while tragic, heh) if I had some awesome nicknames. I am convinced of this.
I have been married to my husband for a year now. I get along with his ex very well. We even try to figure out how to get the kids behavior in check. They have been very rude to me and I am now making progress with SSon, SD is trying to get step son to be mean but he saw me cry today and is seeing whats going on. She even erased the both of their phone numbers from my phone. I have been kind, bought them nice things, taught them music(I`m a musician)I`ve done everything. I have a heart condition so I get very upset and it can be dangerous.
is Stepmother by Carrie Adams. It is from two points of view, a BM who blew it big time with her husband and wants him back and the stepmother to be. It really explores both points of view. The BM becomes a mess and it is her own fault. This woman must have really talked to a lot of SMs who deal with issues of guilt daddy, a princess SD, and doing everything for the Skids cause that's what happens.
"The Art Of Marriage"
by Wilferd A. Peterson
A good marriage must be created.
In the art of marriage the little things are the big things...
It is never being too old to hold hands.
It is remembering to say "I love you" at least once each day.
It is never going to sleep angry.
It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives. It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family.
As per my previous blog, we had never changed the custody agreement from when it was 50/50, even though SD started living with us last year. Now DH may try to get BM to see the Mediator to make this new change "legal in the eyes of the law". Ugh!!
Anyway, I am preparing some materials for my husband for mediation. SMNikki - I know you said you helped your DH prepare some things and that he looked "very professional"!!
What I am looking for advice on is this...

To buy, or Not to Buy.....
THAT is the question!
On Friday afternoon, it was "to buy."
On Friday evening it became, "NOT to buy."
All because $MM$ and her vindictiveness. EJ and I wanted to buy a house closer to his work and where his son is living. We contacted a local realtor. We were pre-approved for a home loan and we started looking in various zip codes for a house that would be perfect.
This blog was posted elsewhere, but since it has to do w/ the BM, I am reposting it here. The original date is 6/7/08
I am so pissed off at the moment I could just spit. I want to scream, rant, yell, curse, cry...just so many damn emotions right now I am getting confused.
I suspected that my SS's BM told him he doesn't need to listen to me when he's visiting his father every other weekend. The boy, being 6 years old for the last couple times he's visited us at DH asked him and he said, "Yes, mommy told me I don't have to listen to SM."

What kind of child requests CLOTHING on his 6th birthday?
Ched was talking to his daddy on the phone last night and told him he "wants boots, pants, shorts, shirts, and socks," for his birthday. No mention of toys.
This is a child who LOVES watching DVD's, playing on the computer, and toys!
My little witch of a SD11 just tried behind my back and calling her dad at work and asking him if she was on punishment that I put her on and had just not an hour before, expalined it to him and he agreed whole heartedly. Now on the phone with her, he says he does not know the whole situation????????, I blew my top and yelled at the both of them and told her that since she went behind my back and called him she was on punishment tomorrow also. And I would talk to him when He gets home TONITE. I am starting to hate being a step-mom and a freaking wife!!!!!
This comes out of SD14's mouth a LOT! I use to tell her "You and SD17 are two different people", but truth be told, it's NOT fair.
When I decided to disengage, I only disengaged from SD17. For some reason, DH will talk to me and take my advice and allow me to help raise SD14, but not SD17. SD14 knows this, and is fine with it because she knows the benefits of me being involved. However, it really isn't fair.
