Woo's blog: "Steph's Musings...."

Life has been busy...crazy busy..but awesome...I know I'm an awful fu-friend anymore but thought I'd come back to check in with you all and to let you know...I'm pregnant! Only 6 weeks...so I'm due mid July...Anyone that has me on FB should keep it hush-hush...our other kids don't know yet...

How have you all been? Anything I should know?

Well, I'm guessing the few of you that read this already have me on FB anyways...but here goes...

So just a couple of weeks ago the hubby and I decided to border jump back to MN because the job market in WI was doing nothing for me. We lived in such a rural area that jobs really were few and far between. And since my husband can sell cars anyways we made the decision. Well within 2 days of our decision, he already had a job and we had a new apartment we rented. Now, 10 days later I have a fairly decent job working with Best Buy. I'm so excited things are working out for us. We were getting close to drowning for a while but we've been able to find a life preserver. My kids love their new school and are ecstatic about living close to their Nana and Papa again. Life is looking pretty good.

Although, I shouldn't say that out loud...life has always had a way of LOLing at me.

Well, after my last blog was posted shit went bad fast...his kids refused to get into the car with him when he met his ex. Their mother has basically painted a picture for them that if they stay with her it's going to be Disneyworld. We have decided to let them stay with her. He doesn't want to force them to come home and they resent him for it, nor do we have thousands of dollars to hire an attorney right now. They are both so brainwashed that they'd pretty much tell a judge anything at this point. We're both heartbroken, but we'll let them realize a few months from now to come home when their lives there aren't the pretty picture their mother has painted.

My step kids are coming home today! The guardian ad lidam decided that their mom was fabricating everything and also found out that their mom has been living with the pedo who sexually assaulted my step daughter when she was 6 and has been making the kids lie about staying with him. 

I'm glad they are coming home...but all I want to do is beat the shit out of that cunt right now. How in the world can you make your daughter live with the person who stole her innocence? Seriously...who does this?!!? It's just unreal. I don't know how my husband is even keeping his cool about it right now. 

Just when I thought life had gotten the best of me it decided to knock me a little farther down. Today my husband got subpeonaed(sp?) at work with a restraining order against his kids. It seems they have decided they'd like to go live with her now. They claim that the living conditions here are unacceptable and that they can't handle living with my kids. OMG!! I keep this place spotless. The kids claimed they do all the cleaning...but all they have are regular chores! Taking out the trash, dishes once in a while and the oldest had to make dinner occasionally when I was kept late at work. There was even something in there about having to listen to us have sex. Sheesh! The walls in this house are thin but my god...it's not like we're yelling and screaming and hanging from chandeliers. Ugh. This is so unreal. Now we have to go to court on Monday and figure out what the hell is happening. 

So I lost my job yesterday...apparently it wasn't okay for me to be behind on my numbers after taking a week off to get married.....a trip they knew was planned when they hired me...at the end of the "exit interview" I was told I could still apply again some time in the future. Why the hell would I want to go back there?! They treated me like shit the entire time. I was pretty damn good at sales. People liked me and I was honest with them. I'm pretty sure the backstabbing bastard I worked with just bad mouthed me the entire time I was gone and he was working with the district manager. I'm so disgusted with that place right now. 

Well now I'm back to job hunting....my least favorite and most stressful activity that I've ever had to do...

*le sigh*

Well since Witchie had to go and altruize me I now have enough points to level...but no motivation to rate 1000 pics of someone running autos or 240 people running boomerangs.....anyone willing to log in an me and do it? I'm thinking maybe a 5 credit bling and 10 mil fu$$? Or just make me an offer...

My brother went in for his tests today....and found out that there is NO mass in his stomach and that the ultrasound was wrong! And that the intestinal tear is healing itself! He just has to take it easy with eating and finish up his antibiotics and he'll be good to go! YAY!!!!!!

Well, a lot of you know that my brother did 15 months in Iraq a short while ago and how it seriously upset me.....well, just when I thought the worrying was over about him I got some awful news last night. I got a phone call last night from him telling me that when he had woke up yesterday morning and hit the toilet that it filled up with blood. He went directly to the VA only to find out that he has a tear in his intestinal wall that is leaking gastric fluids into his body, and that there is a mass in his stomach. He has a serious infection from all the fluids so the tear can't be repaired until it's gone....and the mass won't be biopsied until Monday. Meanwhile, his big sis is a mess! I keep telling myself everything will be okay...but I'm hard to convince. I'm in serious need of a distraction and I don't think work is gonna do it.

Sorry for the wall of words...but I needed to get all of this out somewhere...

My parent gave the 2 teenagers laptops for Christmas early because they won't be with us on Christmas day. My 2 youngest haven't gotten theirs yet. Now the 2 older ones have no reason to leave this house and are getting on my MOTHERFUCKIN' NERVES!!!! Before they got them they would at least leave the house and go do something. Now they won't go away. They are always in my face making me play tech support....I shouldn't be this annoyed...but god dammit I am....
