My son's wedding is not doing too well and it's the mother's faults (including mine).
He told me tonight that his fiance's mother is throwing a fit because her dad has a new girlfriend and he's bringing her. My ex is bringing his wife which is fine...makes me want to barf but she's there. He use to call her in front of me and the kids and talk to her in front of us while we were still married. She was 21, he was 36 at the time.
They got pregnant. They now have a daughter a year younger than our youngest son. My kids dad did not see his kids much at all for 5 years. Two nights in two years but you know, I'm the awful one LOL
Enter my son's gf, she becomes buddies with new wife since they are close in age LOL That's fine. Me, my ex and his wife still have problems (lies about who let who not see the kids, who lied to the court about their income so they didn't have to pay much child support until I subpeoned the DA's office. ooops, he told the judge he was only making 900 a month and come to find out, the DA stood up and told the judge he was lying, he was really making 3200, when I ask for my 50% of unpaid medical/dental I get the "you can't get blood out of a turnip but new wife can buy this $60 beer tap? for my son's wedding cause my fiance mentioned they liked it so she just went out and bought it(and no, she does not work, guess that turnip got a little fat for a day).....just a few unresolved issues we still argue over---of course, I'm the witch you know asking for child support on the correct income. Such is life, 5 more years of it.
Now I find out they are inviting new wife's parents, sister, sister's boyfriend which she is pregnant by and who knows who else from the family. My ex's family...hmmmmmm
they are vindictive people. I've known them since I was 5 years old and my oldest sister is married to his oldest brother. We grew up across the street from each other. There are nine in his family, I thought my ex was one of the rational ones but he's pretty much got the bad blood too. Their family passes around kids like they are toys. Oh here, I had these kids but can't support them so you take them for awhile type of thing. One brother was in jail (running joke is, how long before he goes back in) so his kids were raised by another sister, another one, they were both druggies so another brother and his wife raised them for awhile, then they passed them off to another brother and now the father has them back again. All three sisters are witches with a B, even though they've known me forever, I am now the awful awful person and decided to tell lies about me after our divorce so I heard. Funny they had no problems liking me when they came over every Friday night while I made dinner and they sat around playing cards. He has 2 brothers who will not have anything to do with the family and unfortunately, they probably won't show up to the wedding and would be the only ones not glaring at me from his side of the family (except my BIL). These people will be glaring, I mean shooting daggers at me with their eyes and I would not be surprised if they don't say something rude to me. So here I will sit in the same row with my ex, his new wife (who called me a whore LOL)her family and most of his family behind me. I have very little in the way of family. Maybe a couple of older (70's) aunts who may show up and a few cousins. 2 sisters and a brother but the brothers wife??? Let's just say everyone has tolerated her for years and wondered what my brother ever saw in her and she has taught her 4 daughters to act the same way. My dad had his first heart attack in the 70's, my sil comes into the ICU yelling at my mom for something she thought my mother said days before. Her own mother had to drag her out of there. No common sense, self absorbed and I won't be surprised if she's not inviting the new wife's family to Christmas next year. I had one very very close friend growing up and we've already decided she's sitting by me and hanging out with me at the wedding.
It's going to be like sitting with daggers behind my head and I have to smile away...I am truely dreading seeing my ex's sisters, they are truely awful and vindictive. My friend who also grew up with them says the same thing. I know this is for my son, he will admit to anyone that his aunts and uncles are wierd and hateful but to add the new wife's family?????? He says, well they bought us a quilt.
My current husband and I are getting a divorce, still live together and my son says, you aren't bringing him are you? I wasn't planning on bringing him but I'm sitting here thinking, thanks alot...Keep in mind when my son needs money for college books or help on a down payment for a car he calls me and mommy sends him a check courtesy of my husband's job which paid for his brother and sisters dental and medical his dad can't afford to pay supposedly. But new wife's family is coming and yet he doesn't want my husband. They don't get along and I understand that and I wasn't going to bring him.
I'm just ticked and sorry for rambling. This is definitely not the wedding scenario I had invisioned. I'm just venting and have no idea why my son decided to tell me this tonight. It started off him talking about their honeymoon in WDW. Her uncle works for the Dolphin, getting them a room for $50 a night, sending a car to pick them up at the airport from Sunday morning (they are flying all night and sleeping on the plane) and leave Saturday.
I think I need to get my butt back on that nordic track, get buff, look good in a nice dress and get my face lift LOL
I definitely need more than that botox. The lines are still there, it needs to be lifted UP!!! LOL
If anyone made it this far, sorry for the ramble but wanted to get it out of my system so I could go to bed.
