I just wish you had someone to watch the kids so you could go take a little trip to see Tomato and check out housing.

Perhaps Uncle John would come down and watch them! It could be like...

[lovebuzzandwoody]

Yea!!! What do you say UJ? I think you should be nice to your SIL and go watch the kids for her!! So you gonna, huh, huh, are you gonna?

Yea he seems to have disappeared. I wonder where he went????

 

[Disneymommom]

Yeah, I mean not as bad as you saw on the show on tv, but it was pretty amusing

That's funny. I can't picture her being that way.

I saw where her little brother got engaged and while he was out visiting her too! That's nice. So hard for me to picture him as a grown man as I haven't seen him since he was a little boy.

As long as free counseling is being offered, here is my problem:

My 18 year old daughter will be graduating from HS Sunday. She has stayed 1 night at my house in the last 2 1/2 years. She prefers her mothers house w/no rules.

I spoke to my ex in Dec. about her open house, told her i would help out with it.....whatever they wanted to do, just let me know.......spoke with her again in March, same thing....I paid 1/2 for invites, announce., cap & gown etc.

Well, come to find out they are having an open house with out me or anyone from my family......I spoke to my daughter, she didnt have anything to say....Spoke to my ex, told me if I wanted to invite my family I needed to pay her $1500 for my half.......Of course I had no say in "my half" just fork out the cash........this is all 2 weeks before the open house........I talked to my daughter about having a family open house at our house......my daughter said she didnt want one......that really hurt........tears me up....then she told me her and her mom made poster boards of photos of her growing up, she told me they dont have a single photo of me in it........that really hurt.......

You can only imagine the words I would like to use here to describe my ex........*$%&*#@*(&*%$ yep all those!!
My daughter has told me and DW to come to the open house.......
My question is: Should I go???.......I will be honest I am thinking about skipping it......The posters would crush me, I dont get along real well with my ex family....we wouldnt argue or anthing like that.....we just dont care for each other.........
MY DD didnt even ask for photos from all the Disney trips we have been on together......

BTW,
She is leaving for Phoenix AZ in 2 weeks to live with her grandparents and go to a Comm. college there....I just bought her a laptop to take to school.......

Thanks in advance......

UJ is really hurting over this one........

 

[Disneymommom]

Sorry, I'm one of those guys who dont understand all that wedding stuff.....it's just not that important to us!!!! IMO, Your focus should be on your dad......nothing is more important than family.......nothing.......in 20 years you will know what I mean.......

IMO opinion most woman put way too much into the wedding ceremony and not enough in to the marriage.......

Explain your stress level to your friend ......apologize, she will probably apologize too.......remember her stress level is high too, her wedding day is the most important thing in her life right now.......(a mistake in my opinion). Go out for a long lunch with no other distractions......it will work out!!!!

Watch the movie with Anna about the girl who hires the male escort to go to her sisters wedding in England...very funny chick flick!!!! Her ex is at the wedding also!!

Come on ladies you know what one I'm talking about.....???

Welcome to this thread.......

UJ
aka Uncle John

A guys perspective for what its worth

I liked that movie!!! I know what you are talking about but can't recall the name of it. I agree with you about the ex thing, I am not into worrying about what they are doing and where or with whom they are doing it.

I do know women think their wedding is one of the biggest days in their lives and they want it to be perfect but I see your point.

Family is the most important thing out there, I once worked at a special education school and after seeing those children and how happy they were regardless of their limitations, I was able to put life into the proper perspective and realized what is important and what is not worth gettinig upset over!

I don't know where she got to. I did get to meet her in FL when I was down there. She was staying at the same hotel as Cherbear and I met them both the same night.

I think you would be perfect as Uncle Buck, LMAO I loved Uncle Buck, he was awesome! That was a great movie, one of my favorites.

I wish this wasn't par for the course, but sadly it is. It's her 16th birthday party all over again. You know why she (the EX) planned it w/o you or your money is because she didn't want you to have any say in what kind of party she was going to throw.

I'm not sure whether you should go or not. Everyone else here will tell you to go probably. But they don't know EX. Lucky ducks. What does my sister say about going? Is she willing? You could make a short appearance, avoid the posters, and then arrange to take C out to dinner before she goes to AZ.

Why doesn't C want an open house at your house? Are we that awful to contend with... even when bearing gifts? (Wait... having birthday party flashbacks... don't answer that!)

WOW


I would be furius at your ex

Now try not to get mad at your daughter....this is all your ex's influence.


I would go.....I am sure your dauaghter wants you there..she is just going along with whatever your ex says....

I understand how hurt you must be, though..so sorryr


I would make some of my own posters and bring them with me.

Slap them up on tress all around the ex house..heck put some on stakes and put them in her lawn..sure she would love that


Seriously
