So.. some quick updates. Here is a pleasant thought for you... I had to run some paperwork over to W's. As I walked out of her room, I noticed a pair of handcuffs hanging from her mirror. I guess I know how her back got thrown out.
So I took D5 to the Dr. She has something called Molluscum Contagiousum. It's a viral thing that's contagious and spreads as you scratch.
Stupid W can't figure out how she got it. I'm so pissed at her right now.
I have half a mind to let her mom know.. that woman will rain fire down on my W. Someone needs to.
For those who don't know.. Evidently W has given baths to all 4 kids (my 2 D's and OM's S&D) at the same time.
Evidently.. OM's S has the same spots. Guess where D5 got it.. luckily, I don't think D3 has them.. although tonight is bath night and I'll be double checking.
I have another half a mind to talk to my L about this. Utter disregard for the children's safety.
I don't know how you do it, man. I would go stark raving nuts if my W persisted in throwing my kids together with those of OM. And now that there are obvious physical repercussions to this -- I'd be reading W the riot act.
How do you keep your cool through all the malarkey your W throws your way is amazing.
I'll leave MIL alone. I hope this is a wakeup call for W. I still don't know what the results of her kidney tests are.
My thought is she may have an STD.. could also explain why she's having back problems. I could be reaching, but how would that be... OM gives her an STD and his kid gives our daughter a viral thing.
Which BTW was recommended that we go to a dermatologist to have the molluscum burned off.
Evidently.. OM's S has the same spots. Guess where D5 got it.. luckily, I don't think D3 has them.. although tonight is bath night and I'll be double checking.
WTF??!!
I guess that since she is an alien, she can believe that it just came out of the sky.
AARRGGGHHH!!!
Brother, by holding you're tongue you have proven you are one of the toughest dogs on the block.
All kids are going to get things like athlete's foot etc. from school/swim lessons/etc.
That doesn't mean we have to like it or accept it.
-------------- The Forlorn Hope:...A picked body of men detached to the front to begin the attack....Fortified, meaning strengthened to stand...and thus, positioned for victory
Nocode.. there is nothing else to do. W won't see the light of day.. she won't listen to me.. won't listen to anybody. I hope she realizes the long term affect of what she's doing.
It's amazing..
Yelling at W will do no good either as all I'll hear is how she's a good person and mother. Maybe the good mother just took a shot in the arm?
I guess my other question is this.. How do you still care for someone when the respect you have for them is almost gone?
Jar, I wish I knew the answer for that. More importantly, how do we get them to respect us again as well, so they no longer pull this crap?
With my W, I try to look beyond the veneer of insane, selfish hostility to try to find the core person and their soul somewhere in her physical form. I find it more and more difficult at times to locate that person I fell in love with, but something still tells me I should continue to look for it. I believe my faith in God demands that I continue the effort, but I fear I am losing hope.
When I met my W she was pretty messed up emotionally. She was trying to overcome the hard aftermath from her teenage years and her early "adulthood" years where she made a lot of bad relationship choices. The woman I came to fall in love with was truly repentant and wanting to get her life back in some order of sanity -- and for 17 years with me, I thought she was truly a wonderful mature and respectable adult; a real woman.
But now it's like the unruly teenager has reared her ugly head. I can't or don't want to believe that is who she really is. I have to believe that the real person is still there, but will she ever be allowed to come back to the fore?
