When I first discovered the stepmom bloggy internet world, many years ago, I stumbled across No One's the Bitch blog, written by Jennifer and Carol.  They were mom and stepmom (still are) and had somehow maneuvered past all the competition crap to find a way to peacefully parent children they both loved, and who lived in both of their houses.  They were like goddesses to me, and while I dreamed

I was already at the store, and it cost all of 1.98$ or something.  When I got to my mom's house, she started digging into her purse to find her wallet.  I insisted she stop, it was 2 bucks, she hardly needed to pay me back for that.  She always tries to insist on silly things like this,

He started many years ago with one partner- we'll call her K.  She and the King have struggled, and worked hard, added three other lesser partners, and built their contracting business up from the ground.  They do green building and eco friendly
