BM Craziness out of nowhere
I can't complain on this site most of the time, because the stories of crazy BM's and unsupportive DH's blow anything I've got out of the water! Usually BM is just a quiet figure, lingering in the background, and occasionally being annoying. Pretty easy to deal with. Not sure what happened this weekend but BM went nuts!
DH usually keeps their dealings to himself, but Saturday morning she was texting over and over and he finally told me what was up. She wanted him to drop SD7 off at her house, so she could take SD7 to the fair. The only problem was we were with SD7 at the fair!! BM was pissed. She demanded that he drop her off on her way home, (DH has custody) which he did, and then we had to go back to pick her up Sunday morning to take her swimming!
While we were at the pool Bm starts texting wanting us to bring SD back to her house so her step-dad could say goodbye to her before he leaves out of town on business. Now step-dad has known this kid for less than a year. She sees him maybe one to two evenings a week... so this was a little rediculas. DH told her no. BM proceeded to go on and on about how DH hates new step dad, and how DH doesn't care about what SD7 wants....blah blah blah. So DH calls her and say what do you want? How can I make you stop calling? We're not dropping her off, so if you guys wanna come by and pick her up your more than welcome. BM says well step dad is coming to get her. DH says fine. BM calls back about 10 minutes later and say step dad isn't home and has been out all day, and she can't get ahold of him so she guesses SD7 can just stay with us.
I'm guessing BM is worried about step dad going away for two weeks, and she's sad and lonely and that's where all this came from. But if this keeps up you'll see a lot more griping from me!! This sucks!
