It's All My Husband's Fault

  This blog post has little to do with anything that The Ex said/did and is more just for me to vent.  Nothing really juicy here, just me whining about my feelings.  Feel free to skip 😂   Anyone who has a child knows that parenting is hard.  It's cliche but I totally agree with people who say it's the hardest yet most rewarding job that you'll ever have.   Speaking from my own experience, stepparenting is way harder than just raising your own kids.  Constantly being told that you're wrong regardless of what you say or do, always being paranoid about "overstepping" the invisible boundaries between parents and caregivers, loving someone that you didn't give birth to just as much as someone that you did...it's rough.   I remember when we first got Son a phone and were helping him program his speed-dial numbers.  #1 was automatically assigned to voicemail; Son said that he wanted Husband to be #2, he wanted The Ex to be #3, and he wante...

  The Ex hasn't logged into 2houses in over a month now, which means that she hasn't said anything to Husband in that same amount of time.  Come to think of it, she hasn't sent him a message since November when she asked if she could keep Daughter on our weekend but said she refused to switch weekends.  Husband replied, she logged in but didn't read the response.   Daughter recently had a very busy weekend, which happened to fall on The Ex's weekend.  Actually, it would typically have been our weekend except for the clause in the court order that gives The Ex any weekend that the kids had off of school on a Friday or Monday and switches if it's not already her weekend.  Daughter had off on the Friday of that weekend which means that The Ex was supposed to pick her up at 5:30pm on Thursday.  Daughter already knew that she had a lot of things going on that weekend and told us that she was going to stay here that weekend; I blogged about it here . ...

  I want so badly to be making all of this up, but I'm not.  This is quite possibly the most delusional thing that she has ever posted in her entire life.   Last night, The Ex shared a post from a Facebook page called "Fathers Matter" ( Just leave the irony of that alone because this is about to get so, so much worse. ) The post was a picture with the saying: "Mothers that love their kids will never teach them to hate their father."   Not only did she share it, but she also wrote: "No person should tell there kids to HATE the other parent... they will find out in time... It just turns that kid phsyco and has so much rage for everyone"   Listen, I know exactly why she shared this; she's talking about Ned's ex-wife and Lucifer.  The Ex feels that Lucifer's mom is making him "hate" Ned, which is turning him into a "phsyco" who is filled with rage.   I just cannot fathom how The Ex sees absolutely none of herself i...

  I've often felt that The Ex has very blurred lines when it comes to sexuality, particularly with people in her family.  Husband told me a long time ago that he found out after they had gotten married and had both of the kids that on more than one occasion, The Ex had slept with her first cousin whom she is related to by blood.  The Ex made a comment to Son when he was 14 years old about his underwear and then did a weird cat-call/growl thing.  A couple years ago, The Ex was posting pictures of Daughter's thong underwear on Facebook; she also made a comment about "ripping off Son's penis" because she found a cigarette butt and she was mad at him for it.  Back before she left Boyfriend, The Ex was telling the kids that she wanted to go on a sleigh ride with them and that she thought it would be "romantic." ( No joke - she was planning a "romantic" memory with her kids. )   But this, you guys.  This one is just all kinds of no.   The Ex'...
