"But that makes my time with my awesome and sweet boyfriend special"
That is a sick line for sure.

Today my mom is going to watch baby for an hour so I can study a bit. She is 88 years old so long time is really hard on my mom, but I am thankful she helps.
I am surprised at that age that she can perform those duties. She must be in really good shape for her age.

She is in really good shape for her age! Although after an hour or so with baby she is kinda tired. She feels the need to entertain her for the entire time.
Exh sent a text this morning asking if he could swing by? I said 'i can't this morning'. No more cake eating. Sorry you missed your own days. See if he comes this afternoon for his scheduled visit!
Im done being a doormat!

wow, I had no idea your mom was 88! no wonder she doesn't help more!
hey, try to get that good mood back. I'm glad you unfriended your friend. that's really sad that she is hanging out with her more if she knows what is going on. I know you want to think that no-one understands how it is to be a single mom, but it's different for all of us. I'm sure it's really hard for her too, even if she does get 3-4 days off, because 3 kids would be hard for anyone, especially if they don't have consistency and discipline in the home. so who knows, her household may be worse!! lol The better you are at being consistent and have structured discipline and show your love to your children consistently, the easier it will be for parents. So, think of it this way....your just a better parent!

yeah well this good friend was sort of a transitional friend to me when my first exh and i were splitting up and exh and I were dating too! To complicate it even more this 'friend' is also exh's exw1's sister! Go figure that one out! LOL She is also super immature, flaky, and has put men over her children every time! Not a good example and/or someone I looked up to.
Ok, time to go get baby again! Oh, I have to switch cars with my mom when I drop baby off so exh does not drive by my house and stop by when baby isn't here. So stupid! I cannot even leave baby with someone without fear of him finding out. He would have alot to say about me leaving her with my 88 year old mother.

I'm about to pull back my "Good for you!!"
Remind me again why you care what he thinks or says?
Everybody hurts. It's part of life. Don't miss the good stuff.
Remind me again why you care what he thinks or says?
Because he seems to insist that if I ever leave baby it has to be with him! He told me before that my mom was too old to watch her alone. He stops by at times and I don't want the drama.
Don't pull it back!!

I am not responding...His time is in another 4 hours.
Drew: Boundaries!
But this is where I get nervous about him now stopping by to check to see if we are home. Honest fear here...
