Rude Awakening

I really want to write about what happened regarding my stepson’s mother but I am having trouble finding the energy or the motivation to write anything at all. It is frustrating. I can’t seem to get back into this blog. I think about what I want to write while I am driving but I am so wore out by the time I get home, I don’t write. I am concerned about how my stepson’s mother is behaving because she has been hurtful to my stepson, his wife, and my grandkids, not to mention that she actively tried to damage me and my husband’s relationship with our son. This makes me angry, so very angry. It is also hard not to think about the past. The current drama dredges everything up from the past, that could have stayed buried had my stepson’s mother let it. If she hadn’t tried to control her son’s relationship with his father and I, and with his wife. She also wanted to control her daughter-in-law’s relationships, as well as the grandkids. It is hard for me to believe that she has not realized before now that you cannot control everyone around you. You cannot control who your loved ones have a relationship with. Ha, loved ones! If she truly loved, if she knew anything about genuine love, she would have stopped this behavior a long time ago. But I digress. She wants to control everyone and continues to try to push my husband and I out of our son’s life. I guess she thought we should just disappear, perhaps hoped my stepson would want nothing to do with us, as if we are horrible people. We aren’t perfect, that’s true, but we are far from horrible. I know now some of the lies she told my stepson in order to try to damage our relationship with him. She has gotten away with so much for so long, all the lies, casting shade on us. People that supposedly care about her have let her get away with her horrendous behavior for so long that when anyone doesn’t kowtow to her, it must seem traumatizing. It is a rude awakening.
