THE SILENCE WAS DEAFENING

Yesterday evening, both my former husband and my son, return from Wednesday night dinner. It's nothing that I agreed upon. It's just some extra crap that, the wonderful state I live in, came up with. Just something else to worry about. Just another reason, to get under my skin. If we could only do away with this weekly event, I'd be really happy. Yet, I digress. Anyway, my son walks in, and says "dad wants to tell you about this weekwnd." He says that, "it's his Holiday." My husband, was playing Play Station 2 right next to me. When he quickly get's up.

He goes outside, annoyed of course. This is in regards to my former husbands behavior last Sunday. He then says, "we can play games all you want." "If you want to keep this shit up, we can do it up right." My husband knew that, I was just mad because, my son just got back from their house last weekend. So now, it turns out to be his Holiday agin. Yet another weekend away from our home.

My husband and his former wife, pretty much don't pay attention to the silly Holidays anymore. The only two that any of us are worried about are, Thanksgiving and Christmas. If a silly holiday happens to fall on our weekend with the kids, she doesn't care. We all just leave it at that. That way, not to disrupte the schedule. My husband, was trying to get this across to my Ex. Maybe this was happen with him as well.

Here's the long story short. They both discussed all of our recent problems. Including my former husbands nasty attitude last Sunday. There were a range of topics it seemed. From Dental and Vision insurance to the Trumpet that was purchased. I told him that, I had actually paid 1/2 of all og the dental bills this summer, not the usual 60/40. I'll never help out, in that manner again. I'm tired of being the nice girl.

So there on the porch swing I sat. I didn't say much. I was just completely annoyed that, they were agreeing on alot of things. I know that, this is the adult way to handle things. However, I was in no mood. I wanted to see my husband take my side. Furthermore, I wanted to see some name calling and ass kicking. Wow, that didn't happen. How boaring is that. So my husband says this morning, "you didn't say anything about the conversation to your Ex, after he left. " I said, "what's to talk about, you just took his side on everything anyway?"

We ended up talking it over a little as adult, over coffee this morning. I'm still not amused, with either one of them. All is for the best I guess. See ya'll!

Fireworks In August

As everyone can tell, I've been absent from my Blog. This Summer has been very busy. However, I'm now back at it. My latest problem, seems to be, my Son's Step-Mother. Although, I shouldn't say latest. She's lways been a problem. This past weekend, was quite explosive. I stood up verbally to my forme Husband. He had the nerve, to enter into my home, with an attitude. Not to mention, in front of our Son, my Husband, and four of my neighbors. We were all sitting around eating leftovers. My Husband's 40th Birthday Party, had been the night before. There was entire refigerator, full of food.

I suppose that dinner, this was part of the problem. My former Husband, had no propane in the grill. Something about, just baking the steaks, and the Wife having errands to run. Let's be honest, those are not my problems. Furthermore, he was already upset with me because, our Son wanted to attend the Birthday party. He started shouted acuzations regarding his missed visitations.

That's when, my head erupted and, I just let him have it. Not physically mind you, but verbally. The law of the land, frows upon, beating the tar out of Ex-Souuses. It's a good thing that I blew up. Otherwise, my Husband, was just getting ready to stand up from the couch. He said that, I finally stood up to him. I'm one of those, "just repress it" kind of people. If I just let it go, them maybe things will be ok. Although, I'm not sure, what came over me. Perhaps that, I had the support of everyone around me. Maybe, It's because I had an audience. Lastly, or just because That this, was the straw that broke the camels back.

To be honest, it was probably a little bit of them all. Hoever, I'm almost sure that, he'll never bring that attitude back into my house. Not without a tongue lashing that is. Then again, maybe he will get physically assulted by my Husband. Legally, that wouldn't be ok. My Husband, would receive a "go straight to jail card, and do not pass go." How many of you play that sort of violence over and over in your head? I know that I do. You think to yourself... if only...

It's just that I am seriously tired of, having to deal with my former Husband's current wife. I know for a fact that, she urges him to behave badly. To play the victim card, the let's be complicated card, and the it's only right card. We all just wish that, she would drop dead. I know what you're thinking. Be careful what you wish for. I will... or I will... ya'll take it easy!
