A new start for Mooloo

You're right Mooloo - you can't do it, you're becoming increasingly clapped out and could easily find yourself incapable of fully looking after yourself let alone a toddler. That could possibly result in an emergency fostering place with strangers for DGD and she doesn't deserve that.
Sometimes, some things just can't happen however much people would like them to......................I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)

I haven't posted for a while as I am completely stumped as to what advice to offer you...:(
Keep practising saying NO - loudly and often - when anyone suggests you have anything to do with caring for your family on anything other than an ad-hoc family visit.The IVF worked;DS born 2006.0 -
Oh Mooloo ...it sounds to me as if you are the Holy Grail for the Social Services!
Whilst it must be flattering in one instance, you know that it just cannot be - you have keep repeating to Social Services the mantra "I cannot cope ....I cannot cope ...much as I want to, I cannot cope ...my health will not allow me to do what I would want to".
Good luck!0 -
Hi Mooloo your daughter could have her before the order goes through. Of course that depends if she is ready and willing.0

What about a further further contingency for when Mooloo ends up in hospital with the strain? Or completely runs out of petrol when the girls are creating about something urgent? Or ...Signature removed for peace of mind0

Stay strong - keep repeating (broken record style) your message. practice saying it before you go and lots of luck. I will be thinking of you. Hugs xI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
MooLoo, please don't forget that you are still waiting for them to pay you expenses from when DG first came to stay with you.....if he is taking about a further 4 months, then you need to see some sort of recompense from the very first day she came to stay right up to the end of her stay, if only to cover the increased use of petrol, electric, food, wood etc.
Good luck xx0 -
Oops, I am not in a good mood this morning. Due to logistics had to have all staying last night, so had DGD in my bed and she decided to talk froml 3.30am till passed 5am!. Then of course we were all getting up at 7am.
I have also messed up with messages to my BF and that has not helped me into a better mood. As biggest of Mooloo cannot have DGD after saturday lunch, it means that I only have Friday evening free, but he is busy with his own things, and not willing to change them for me. Thats when I feel dejected and worthless. when I am not worth changing his plans for, but I am expected to change mine at the drop of a hat.
Oh I am in the " I hate the world " at the moment.
Now where is my passport do you think I could just run? Would my ESA cover a quick holiday somewhere nice and peaceful with no telephones to ring me?
Not sure about eventually when I burn out. Reckon I burned out last week!
Am on borrowed energy levels, from my boots! Or at least thats a saying from my Mum, when I have to "dig down into your boots my girls!).When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
B ig hug this morning from me, to you! Hope it all goes well today, now repeat after me.............N....................O........... NO NO NO!
