BM's latest stunts

17 years ago

I know she's nothing compared to many, but she still can drive me crazy.

DH's SM signed A__ up for a day camp this summer. She cleared the dates with BM and with us. She paid for it.

Now, BM has signed A__ up for something that same week and doesn't want to cancel it. She's mad that my SMIL told her that if they can't get their money back, they expect BM to reimburse them, as it was her mistake.

She keeps calling my DH at work and telling him all about her pregnancy (she's due any day). This annoys me. She doesn't call to see if we would like to have A__ (and says no when DH asks) but she calls to b17ch that she gained 40 pounds and is sick of being pregnant. WTF? She can't have it both ways!

Bah. I'm annoyed with her today and wish irritating things upon her. Like a tax audit, or hitting her shin on the coffee table... Or maybe itchy mosquito bites...

Yes. That's it. I hope she gets itchy mosquito bites.

"She keeps calling my DH at work and telling him all about her pregnancy "

Why is she calling your DH to discuss her pregnancy?

Totally inappropriate IMO.

I am really sorry, Ceph. It makes me sad that she is telling DH "no" when he asks to see A. What is her reasoning? When was the last time he saw A? I hate to advocate putting a child in the middle, but I'd be tempted to have DH start asking A directly. Let BM be the "bad guy" by telling her son no, he can't see his dad. My guess is if A wants to see his dad badly enough, BM will give in.

As far as the summer camp issue goes, that is totally rude and inconsiderate--sounds like par for the course, though, with this woman. Sigh. :(

Latest News on Killer Compost
Q

Jessaka, You're welcome. I hope the info is useful. Larry, The issue of killer compost is one reason I have come to rely on chopped/shredded leaves so much. People here in our local area often ask me if I want old hay or cow manure from their barns and I mostly (and regretfully) say no because I know they use some of these broadleaf weedkillers in their pastures or because they buy hay and we have no way of knowing if the purchased hay was sprayed with any of these persistent herbicides. I have used Black Kow cow manure for as long as I can remember and have no intention of giving it up. However, I do test each bag by trying to sprout beans or peas in it before I add it to growing beds or containers. Testing only takes a short while and it is worth it to have the peace of mind of knowing I'm not contaminating soil I've worked so hard to improve. Dawn

Stunted growth of seedlings?
Q

THe potted plants all have their first leaves (maybe too small??), but the picture is poor and hard to see. The ones in the starter/jiffy pots just have the cotyledons. They are just sitting there, not growing and skinny. :( Regarding light source, they are outside during the day and indoors at night. The weather has been sunny and the temps have ranged from the 80s to the 60s. When they were tiny sprouts I had them under a grow light.

BM is in prison
Q
Comments (13)
I honestly think the girls should not go see their BM in prison. It is just a year. If it were a longer sentence, I would say *maybe* it would be beneifical for them to visit their mom. BUT a year, in the grand scheme of things, is not so long. Let BM write them letters, etc. but I think a visit would be really traumatic for the girls at this point. Let's see what BM does when she gets out of prison and let that determine the course of their relationship with her. Maybe this time in prison will be her "rock bottom" and she will come out, work a 12 step program and really get her life together. THAT would be a good and positive thing. Or maybe she will come out of prison and resort right back to her old ways. If the girls have seen her during the prison time, and then she does the latter, I would think that would be yet another hurt to them. The only way I would think it might be okay for the girls to see BM is if THEY really, really want to. Doodle, will you guys tell them she is in prison?

Media report "Latest in kitchens: Black is the new white"
Q
Comments (21)
@CEFreeman: shoulder pads and leg warmers resurfaced briefly The mostly black kitchens shown by high end designers remind me of certain trends in fashion -- fashionistas keep trying to bring them back, only for the mass public to soundly reject them. Black and dark colors for part of the kitchen can be beautiful. I consider the GW kitchen linked above a "partly black" kitchen -- no different than the espresso woods that are going into many kitchens today. (I disliked the HB kitchen). But noir can also be terrible to live with, especially on horizontal surfaces -- we inherited glossy black granite (AB) counters and they are the worst thing in a second home -- same thing with the range. Every dropped speck, water spot or piece of dust shows instantly and terribly! This post was edited by gooster on Sat, Nov 22, 14 at 14:12

Love - I don't know why she calls DH about it... Maybe her BF told her to stuff it? LOL!
And that might be a good idea about asking A__ directly. Hmm, we hadn't thought of that

Maria - She and DH aren't friends, but she seems to think he wants to hear about her personal life, even though he has told her, point blank, that he doesn't

Ima - Happy to have made your day!

Doodle - He did that!! He said "Why would I care that you got fat?"... He likes to poke angry bears and apparently doesn't see that poking this angry bear had potential repercussions.

FD - She usually says something along the lines of "I'm not working anymore so I don't need you to watch him" or "We have no plans, so he can be here" or "But I was thinking of maybe doing _____ with him, so I want him"... And then complains about being pregnant. What a peach.

maybe planning ahead of time, such as "I am going to see seeing A next Sunday for a day, would you please plan for that". specific.

When i first got divorced, my X would just show up at my door and say hey let me get DD or call and say i want to see DD now. of course I said "no" (and he probably complained what a b..I am LOL). he quickly learned to plan and arrange his time with DD so i can plan. i am a planner and do not like chaos. DH has to sit down and plan with BM what times or days are the best.

maybe he can also talk to A directly and plan with him beofre he even talks to BM.
