A new start for Mooloo
Comments

Finally made some headway with the front flower bed. Its starting to look better anyway. The grass needs cutting but I am not able to lift the lawnmower out of the shed. (its a brick build shed, with several steps to it).
I have collected DGD, and she has had lunch, and is now going to have a sleep, (I hope).
If she sleeps then I can rest. Which today I need to do. Other days I can get on, but am not 100% so there is no point in pushing myself as I have her again this weekend, our weekends with Biggest of Mooloo's have been messed up a bit, as she is busy this weekend.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
How did the boys seem Mooloo? Is the older boy confused or asking for his mummy?0

The boys look really well, the eldest is looking really smart, had new shoes and clothes on, and was happy to see us, and play with his cousin, and give me hugs, he cried when I left, but he didnt ask for Mummy at all.
Whether he does where he is I really dont know. I dont get to see, or meet or even know where he is living. I just know its somewhere in Corby. A go between picks them up and brings them to the centre. Although next week is cancelled due to his mum not being back, and to the big meeting. But I am not going to go to that one. Lets see how they get on without my input!.
Twin2 is still angry with me, so I am staying away. I shall not be available, as I shall be going to see my BF mid week next week, for a birthday dinner for his eldest and hopefully if I can persuade his daughter to babysit, we can have an evening out on our own. (Well I can hope can't I?);)When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -

Don't worry too much about the boys being lonely or missing their family, the carers will be skilled and experienced in comforting them in this.
I'm still not sure if this case is in legal proceedings and what the plans are? (I may have missed your reply somewhere alnog the line)Mama read so much about the dangers of drinking alcohol and eating chocolate that she immediately gave up reading.0 -

As far as I know, nothing has happened at all, there is a Conference meeting on Thursday next week. But as far as i am aware its still under a volunteery agreement, section 20 of childrens act thingy!.
But if Mum doesnt get home soon I am sure they will take more formal actions. Which worries me, but I just cannot take them home with me, as I cannot do all the lifting etc involved, just one hour yesterday reminded me of that one!.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
A note from Shirley Conrans book :-
A astonished husband has returned home from the office to an amazing scene in his kitchen. Two little children are murdering each other while another tot is garrotting the cat. There is a pile of last nights dirty dishs and a heap of dirt laundry. Saucepans are burning, clouds of steam are rising, the floor is covered with smashed crockery and the dog has just upset the litter bin. In the middle of this chaos is his wife, sitting in an easy chair with her feet up on the table. She is reading a novel and dipping into a box of chocolates. She says," I thought that the best way to let you see what on earth do all day was not to do it!.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -

I wanted to put it in my signature, but its just too long. its something I have also seen a similar sketch of, in some book about clearing the clutter! But I have long since lost that book, (probably in the clutter!).When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0

Right, as it was 8.30 before I put DGD to bed, I am up a little later then yesterday, but to be honest I am very tired, and so I shall go up now, as I cannot see anything on the TV I want to watch, and as my Skybox doesnt work anymore (dont subscribe so cant complain) it has worked for over a year, I am reduced to 1,2,3,4, and 5. (didnt knwo I had 5 until recently!).
So with no set plans for the weekend for once, and not sure if anything until 2nd. I can relax, I hope, and plan to leave the children to thier own devices, (Except DGD of course). BF is not feeling well, so he wont be coming here, and I will not take DGD down unless he feels better, would be too much for me to expect him to cope with her non stop chatter if he feels under the weather. (Just becuase I have too!)When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0
