Howdy!!!! Squirrel 3 and I have decided that as we are a bit nutty, we'd like to set up the Nutty Stepmum's Club or NSC. If anyone would like to join us, please add to this post and prove that we are not the only nutters out there!

We would like to add a little bit more nuttyness to our already insane lives!!!!

Sadsam, you did go onto the right site didn't you?

The site I was trying to link to was the ebay song site...........?

There was no mention of the NSC big pink pants...... our secret's safe!!!!

SadSam · 06/04/2005 12:47

Erm Squirrel I didnt see that site I think it must have gone onto another one!!! Glad our song isnt on there tho, otherwise we would have to sue for copyrights! Lol

SadSam · 06/04/2005 12:55

Lol dont worry Squirrel I think it was me getting over excited and clicking on something I shouldnt have when it started loading!

Actually I just tried it again and I keep getting a warning box come up regarding viruses, I think it must be to do with my work computer it is a bit overally sensitive to downloading stuff!

SadSam · 06/04/2005 13:05

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 13:21

I'm very well thank you, had a driving lesson this morning and nearly crashed into my DP of all people!! Why do I hate driving sooooo much? Ive been trying to learn on and off for years and I just hate it!!!!

I've got me big pink pants at the ready today, got the skids overnight.

I think this thread is cheering up a lot of stepmums, even those that are not, you'll never guess what!!!!

A friend of mine 'told' me about this section in mumsnet as she thought I might be interested and she found it hillarious, little does she know that it is I squirrel and my nutty friend Sadsam that started it!!!! OUR SECRET IDENTITY IS SAFE!!!

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 13:25

Actually she is expecting her first baby and I recomended she use mumsnet to talk to other expectant mums then she found the step-parenting section and told me all about it!!!

tarantula · 06/04/2005 13:30

Oh I need to come here a scream very loudly. Am soooo pissed off with dp and x. Have had dss round since lastFriday and he is supposed to be going back today. Original plan was for him to go tomorrow but we have to go away so hes going back today. I arranged all this with dp last Thursday and he was aupposed to tell x this. He didnt or if he did she wasnt listening properly as she says she is expecting him back Friday. Now we def never said wed have him till Friday that I do know. So now shes having hissy fits cos she wants her time off and dps pissed off cos he doesnt knwo how hes going to get dss back home (an hour by train) and Im really really pissed off cos dd gonna have to be dragged on a really long train journey either today or first thing in the morning and then have a flight tomorrow evening on top of that and its not fair on her havign to do all ths travelling. GGGRRRRRRR.

AND I told him last FRIDAY to ring up x and MAKE SURE that the arrangements were all fully understood but noooo he knew best didnt he GGGRRRRR

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 13:35

Trantula, go ahead and scream hun!!!!!

MEN!!!!!

{hug}

tarantula · 06/04/2005 13:42

Thanks squirrel Knew I should have rung her myself (we are on quite good terms) but thought hed sort it out and it is after all his job.

bangs head against brick wall.

And Ive got to get the packing done tonight as Ive got to bring the rucksack into work with me tomorrow as dp will have to get dd and her stuff to the airport tomorrow.

Knew this whole thing would end in disaster. Should ahve stuck to jsut having him for the weekend but he does sooo like comign over nad we like having him.

SadSam · 06/04/2005 13:47

Tarantula I can totally relate to that. I had a huge problem the other weekend, we had arranged to have the kids and travelled 200 miles to get them only to be told by BM that she wasnt expecting us (she has a drink problem and so forgets things) and that we couldnt have them. We therefore had a 400 mile round trip for nothing! It is her fault really because I heard him arrange it with her the week before, but really he should have phoned the night before to double confirm it, but he just doesnt like phoning her as she always starts a fight!!!!

Awwww! that's so sweet and soooo nice (the bit about him loving being with you and you love having him) thats so lovely, you are really lucky.

Awwwwwww!!!

Sorry if that doesn't help with your current situation but it is so nice to hear...

AND YOU GET ON WITH BM!!!!

SadSam · 06/04/2005 13:56

Squirrel is right, its so good to hear from someone with something positive (among the negative) to say. I love my skids to death I only wish it was reciprocated! I would do anything for them but BM is determined to turn them against me and DP. Its so sad really.

Squirrel, wicked about your friend seeing this site, glad its opening out to new people!

OP posts:
tarantula · 06/04/2005 14:07

Its really bad about BM trying to turn the kids against you SS. thats really bad. Dss mum never SAID anything bad abought me when dss was around even in the begining when we didnt get on. (She used to leave notes for dp on the fridge telling him how she felt because dss was only little and couldnt read them but never said anything when he was round which was really good of her.)

SadSam · 06/04/2005 14:47

Yeah I know what you mean Tarantula, she never says really horrible things about me, its just that she manipulates them and being quite young they listen to what she says. BM regrets kicking DP out and has always thought they would get back together (no chance he hates her)! I think she adopts the attitude even after 6 years that if she cant have him no-one will!

OP posts:
tarantula · 06/04/2005 14:56

thankfully BM has got well past that stage. Weve even gone out for the night together and shes offered to babysit dd anytime (Not going to take taht up tho as she smokes). Since Ive gone back to work and dp is at home Ive not seen much of her so communication has gone down hill. She doesnt listen to dp and dp doesnt listen to her and dss is a featherhead who never remembers anything not even important things like when his holidays begin and end. He just takes life as it comes. Right gotta ring dp now and find out whats going on ~groan~ At least dss and dd dont care lasttime I phoned they were chasing round the front room causign chaos

tarantula · 06/04/2005 15:05

Oh great Jsut tried to ring him and hes not there Dont know whats happening now or whats going on at all. AAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 15:10

Hope it all goes well trantula, have a nice time away.

BM always says bad things to Skids about me and my Kids, its not fair, it just makes things harder for all of the kids, it doesn't affect me anymore as I know she is just a bit bitter and twisted (although she left him for a much younger man) as far as the kids go she is their Mum so why should they doubt her? it makes the relationship between Skids and I a bit strained at times (but thats a different thread)

let us know how you get on, talk later.

More jokes anyone?

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 15:11

Oh dear! Go on have another scream!!!!!!!!!!

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 15:15

Tarantula, Cor!!!!!

Where do you live? I heard that in Kent!!!!!!

tarantula · 06/04/2005 15:27

lol squirrel Feel better for that. He could have rung me before he left to let me know whats going on but no thatd be nice and sensible. Soooo pissed now. Cant believe this whole situation. BM is now insisting that dp said hed bring him back Friday which is stupid as we were going to go away late tomorrow evening( It was never going to be Friday anyway even when we werent going away). Its been changed now and we are going early tomorrow evening instead hence the need to bring him back this evening. Feel like going and crying somewhere but cant cos am at work.

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 15:31

Don't know what to suggest, have a big {{{hug}}} from me.

Hope it all works out.

squirrel3 · 06/04/2005 19:01

Men!!!!

A man is out shopping and discovers a new brand of Olympic condoms.
Clearly impressed, he buys a pack. Upon getting home he announces to his wife the purchase he just made. "Olympic condoms?" she blurts, "What makes them so special?" "There are three colours", he replies, "Gold, Silver and Bronze". "What colour are you going to wear tonight?", she asks cheekily. "Gold of course", says the man proudly. The wife responds, "Why don't you wear Silver, it would be nice if you Came second for a change!"

Sorry if that was a bit rude but I thought we could do with a joke!!!!
