The Chaos of Life....

My dad remarried back in November and so far my little sister has not taken kindly to our new family. She has flat out told my stepsisters that she hates our stepmom. She is not willing to accept them as family and has since moved to live with a family friend of ours until this Friday when she moves to Sammamish, Washington to live with my mom's friend and her husband and two kids. I am sad that Stacey has resorted to this but I do believe she needs time away. However, she is going to realize quickly that its not some fairytale land like it is when she goes to visit. She'll actually have to go to school there and work and such. Whatever happens I hope she realizes what she is leaving behind and is sorry about how she has treated our family and that our stepmom is not trying to replace our mom, no one can do that and Angela (stepmom) knows that. Stacey has been living in a way that she has gotten every single thing she wants but has now started to be shot down when she asks for stuff to often and such. However she doesn't realize how dangerous it is to be so attached to 'stuff'. The people she has been living with have given her just a taste of it due to the lack of wireless internet and cable in their home. They have one computer and are not allowed to just sit around on your butt doing nothing but watching TV and playing on your laptop. I'm glad Stacey has been exposed to this but it wont happen in Washington. She gets her own room, wireless internet, TV in her room (again) with her Wii, and basically whatever the heck she wants.  Growing up I was always the one who got shot down for stuff. I always had to save for stuff but Stacey almost always got what she wanted. However, I think that will give me the better work ethic between us because I am willing to work for what I get. She is just too spoiled to often. Now that she will be on a budget though maybe, JUST maybe she will learn. I just hope she doesn't screw herself up to much and she will turn around. She also stopped going to church and dropped from her confirmation class. Why? Because the woman she will be living with in Washington doesn't go and doesn't like our priest therefore Stacey won't go or like our priest. This is what angers me because she accuses Dad and I for forgetting our mom and such because we have accepted Angela. However, I think it is the other way around. Mom would have been so upset for her leaving the church but she wants to be like JUNE not MOM.  Now whose forgetting? I just hope she realizes how much of an ass she has made herself to be.

An Equestrian blog?

So ya it's been awhile....again. It's finals week and I have nothing to study right now so I'm taking a break. I always forget I have this thing. I think I may just start writing about all the stuff I do with horses and such now and what I learn in my classes. That will actually give me a topic :D Or just start another blog :)
