Team Focker Watch - v.9 in which all great mysteries shall be revealed

[Goofyluver]

errg! Sounds like we are all having quite a week. I've been sitting on this, but I found out Tues that BIL has gotten another girl pregnant as well. I have lots of emotions ranging from not giving a fat rat's a$$ to OMG, the world is coming to an end. I had come to the realization, that this was his problem, but then thought, how do I explain this to my children? They are old enough to ask questions, but not old enough to understand or handle the answer.

I blame my MIL of course. She has always let those boys off the hook no matter what they did. There was never any consequences, no brow beatings or severe tongue lashings. Only, "it's ok, it wasn't you're fault." And here is where I lose it! Her lack of making them ever take any responsibility for any of their f-bomb actions is now going to affect the lives of four people, not counting my BIL, us, the rest of our family, the girls' families.

There is actually a 3rd girl in his life who broke his heart which led to this reckless lifestyle he is now leading as he tried to fill the void.

I need give some history, but I have to sort out my thoughts. I will tell you that preg girl #2, AKA scank ho, lied to BIL and said that she had ovarian cancer and couldn't get preggers. I'm like, you fell for that? Are you that stupid? Really?

I'm trying hard not to be that raging biotch SIL that have been to him in the past. When he was screwing up in HS, I asked him if he had picked the bridge he would be living under if he didn't get his sh## straight.


eeeerrrrrgggg

Hell, Slatie. Are we related?

That sounds like my brother.



honey. Ya' get to the point, where it's enough. You'll know when.

I told DH last night that it was time for a bro to bro talk (since this BIL is actually a half and his father is AWOL).

Ugh honey.

My brother is crazy. I've learned...I can't control his crazy.

 

[sorul82?]

My BIL is not crazy, just needs to be told hey fu#$tard, get a hold of yourself!

S'late? Is that you? Or did Jen get on and start postin' the dirty words in your place?

Where do I turn in my halo?

Hell, don't ask me. I tote my horns with me everywhere.

[ncsjodi]

You guys are cracking me up tonight!

 

[sorul82?]

Oh, don't mention this stuff over on FB. Preggers girl #1 and my new SIL are on my friends list. those 2 plus MIL are on DH's list.

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Dawn- I love those suits! Do they come in Tink sizes? She needs a new one!
btw... you go MAMA!

They start at size 6. I'm excited that C can finally wear some of them, I hope. She's a skinny Minnie!

OOOO whatcha seeing???

I meant to answer this earlier, but I'm forgetful. So, whoever asked before- Sorry.
We're seeing My Fair Lady. I'm really excited. She may be my only hope for a kid who loves music and shows as much as I do.

Warning this started as an update but quickly turned into a vent and a whiny one at that.​

Ok ladies I think I need Jen. I took Nana to the doctor. It was packed in there. We had a 10:30 appointment and at 10:45 I went up and asked how long it would be and explained I needed to be to work by noon and would reschedule if it would be long. They said it was moving quick and I should be called soon. At 11:20 I go back up and tell them that I had to reschedule and would have done so 35 minutes earlier if they had been truthful with me. Just as I turn to leave Nana is called in. I ask how long will I have to wait if we go in as I need to be to work soon. They tell me if I am willing to see any doctor available ( the office has 3 on duty each day) I could be seen right away. It turns out they had me down to see a specific doctor and our file was being passed over since that doctor was very busy. I told them we did not request a certain doctor and did not need the long wait. We get in and they will not send her to anyone else until they see the results of the MRI. They then order the MRI and we now wait again. I figure either way the specialist will want it and this way it will be done. I was so frazzled I did not get a gym excuse for her and am not quite sure why we are not going to the specialist and having them do the MRI. This way we will get the MRI faster though. It usually takes at least 3 weeks to get the first appointment with the specialist. I just would have preferred they made the appointment now not after the MRI. We could cancel if needed. So Nana is not on her own two feet for WDW. Where do I rent the little carts?

She is making a sign for it that says if you think it is so great being first on the bus I will trade places with you. Last trip she and her dbff were not as polite as I would have liked with the wheel chair but man people are just not bright when they get near someone trying to push a wheel chair. They are hard to push and steer. People will not move aside for you and just walk out in front of them. We also had a lady saying not so nice things because we were going to get on the bus before her. She made Nana cry. The lady was speaking Spanish to her family and Nana does understand some Spanish. They get her loaded and I sit down on the bus next to her and she was crying. I asked why and she said that for the 10 minutes we were waiting for the bus that lady kept saying mean and rude things about us getting special treatment. I told her next time turn to the person and say -- Oh yes I am so lucky to get to spend time sitting in this instead of enjoying my senior year walking around and playing tennis. It has also been great gaining all this weight since I am no longer able to exercise. And I am sure my prom will be a blast in a wheel chair or on crutches.

It is a hassle moving in and out of many rides because she can not bed her leg much or put all her wait on it. She also has to write a ton of papers for gym class or she will fail it and not be able to graduate this year.

That stinks. Poor Nana.
Vent any time. It's not whining. That's what we're here for!

eeeerrrrrgggg

Wow. It's like a soap opera.
If it was my kids, I'd be upset I had to explain things I wasn't ready for them to hear too. Although with my oldest, I'd use it as a teaching moment to tell her why we have to make good choices.
I'm sorry you have to deal with this. The whole situation, not just talking to the kids.

Drunken Spanish night

Si, senora...

Sorry CE. Mine are watching the Muppet Show as we speak.

Now, see, I like the Muppet Show. I even like Ice Age 2, but the first one does nothing for me.

Anyways off to reinstall my Sims 2 and watch Lost and hell's Kitchen.

OMG, I've been so totally addicted to Sims 2 this week. I just spent 3 hours on it.

Warning this started as an update but quickly turned into a vent and a whiny one at that.​

No problem, and I'm so sorry.

It is just off the exit and it is all farms in that area. It is about 3 miles out of town and the building use to be a restaurant when I was a kid.

This is how they are in Central IL, too.

It has a ladder on one end and a table on the other. The guys who delivered it put it all together except the slide. Nana even with a sore knee made sure her Bug had a slide. She sat down in his room and put it together for him.

Cool!

errg! Sounds like we are all having quite a week. I've been sitting on this, but I found out Tues that BIL has gotten another girl pregnant as well.

Oh, S'late. I'm sorry.

***********************************************************
I've had some wine. I've been playing Sims 2 and I've got WNTW on in the background.

Anywho.... It's time to take the dog out. Have a fantastic night, all!

 

[dreamn_Disney]

S'late sorry about the family drama. It sounds like a real mess.

 

[KatGarcia]

Slate-

Margie- So sorry about everything! if it helps any I had back issues so bad on one trip that KC ended up having to push me in a wheelchair in WDW. It was a pain and people looked at me like "why is she in there" but you do what you gotta do. You'll be in WDW so you'll be fine!

I meant to answer this earlier, but I'm forgetful. So, whoever asked before- Sorry.
We're seeing My Fair Lady. I'm really excited. She may be my only hope for a kid who loves music and shows as much as I do.

OOO nice! Have a great time! We are seeing Guys and Dolls this week and we just got tickets to the touring company of RENT in NJ in a few weeks!!!

OMG, I've been so totally addicted to Sims 2 this week. I just spent 3 hours on it.

I have been playing it for a while, had all the expansions and everything but somehow deleted the folder so I had to do some finagling to start to play again. Did you make your family? MY fav part is making the houses! I have been playing since the first game...its SO addicting!!!!


I wanna know whats up with the girls weekend!!!!!!!I'm so in!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Urgh just woke from a "nap" which just means it'll be a late night of reading until i sleep again- which sucks. Oh well. Maybe I'll be around...

KC may have to work in the office tomorrow because the router we have is wonky but the new ones on the way. I hope he can get the pc to work in his favor tho, I secretly like having him on on the weekends.

 

[jcc0621]

Really...I'm first Mel needs to get home. I don't like being first IL's coming for dinner so I have to do some straightening and cleaning and then run to the grocery store. May or may not be back later.

=========================================================

They're allowed to have the cell phone at school as long as they are off. But, his teach was aware of what was going on and allowed him to call.

Good!

I'm here honey. I run in stealth mode most of the time.

Gotcha

I asked a few days ago and either the post was missed or I missed the answer. Is there going to be a Fockerfest this year or not until 2010. I do not want to miss the big event again. I did get to a couple of meets last time but I missed the big dinner and then saw a video and it looked like so much fun.
Also is no one here going to be there Feb 13-21?

I think we are still looking at 2010. There was talk of a girls only weekend in October (Over COlumbus Day) but not much has been said about that lately. I probably won't be able to to do that one if it does happen!

So sorry Slate. Not for the BIL, he made is own bed . I'm sorry you have to deal with this and that you have to try and explain it to your kids!

We had a bunch of talk on FB last night about Columbus Day weekend this year!!!! That would be Oct 9-12th if you're wondering!!!

So sorry Slate. Not for the BIL, he made is own bed . I'm sorry you have to deal with this and that you have to try and explain it to your kids!

Slate, I agree with Janet. I'm so sorry you have to explain this to your kids. I've got a cousin who has two girls (almost 9 and almost 1) with two different men, both of which she had broken up with before the babies were born. My girls have never met either of the men. DD7 is always asking me who their father is and why he isn't around. And also, why Alison isn't married. It's hard to explain without getting into topics that I just don't want to get into at 7 years old, kwim? I'm so sorry you have to deal with all the drama!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, I've got no concrete plans for today. I've got a few things to do, but nothing pressing scheduled. It will be nice to have a day to chillax (as T says)!

DD4's birthday is Tuesday, so we're having a little party for her friends that afternoon. I need some ideas for games for 4-5 year old girls. I think we're going to paint nails, do hair, etc. and I've got a few crafts to do, but I need some game help. Anyone???? Dawn???

 

[askelton]

OMG Angela you were a DOLL!!!!

Thanks. If you have time, let's meet for a drink or something when you're here!

Warning this started as an update but quickly turned into a vent and a whiny one at that.​

Maybe a mini meet?

eeeerrrrrgggg

How old is BIL?

My brother is crazy. I've learned...I can't control his crazy.

This is exactly what Mitch says about his sister and his stress level, over her, has diminished greatly!

 

[askelton]

Forgot to say

Happy Birthday LL

[HomeschoolMama]

Jodi- I'm too tired to be much help, but I would start off with visiting birthdaypartyideas.com . Also, a lady at dance bought some Bratz valentines candy (I hate Bratz, but the candy was cute) that was individually wrapped and was lipsticks, nail poilsih, etc. That would be cute to hand out. Or, just give them each a little bottle of nail polish.

As for games, you may not have much time to do that if you're doing nails, etc. What about little necklaces they can string. They have kits at the craft store (and Target too) for maing lipgloss, etc.) Good luck!


We're not doing much today. Cleaning, chilling, and going to my MIL's tonight- which should be interesting b/c I'm slightly annoyed at my SIL right now for trying to get K to reconnect with this awful girl from his past. When I spoke up and asked how she would feel about it if I gave an ex's info to her hubby she said, "I trust my hubby."
Oh no she din't!

Hubby said he wasn't interested, but it ticked me off none the less. I know K and I have different views than her and I don't expect her to understand, but at least don't talk about how great it is to be "sisters" with me and pull that the next minute. I could tell she knew she was being rude, because she wouldn't make eye contact with me.

So, I'll be around until later this afternoon.
I'm off to make coffee now.
