Mooloo's New Home, New Year and New Start part 3

katiesmummy

Mooloo I was a lurker on your previous thread and I just wanted to say congratulations on finally moving into your new home- that is one (massive) less thing to worry about as you now have somewhere secure to live with DGD and DS (when he's there)

I am in complete awe of you and your spirit- your keep carrying on attitude. Whatever life throws at you, you tackle it with everything you have inside and I admire you so much.

Wishing you all the luck in the world for 2011, lets hope its less eventful than 2010 and that you finally get your DLA sorted out (amongst other things). I have felt your pain when you speak about your grandsons, its an awful thing to deal with, I can't even imagine.

Wish I was a bit closer as my DS (3) would no doubt love to play with DGD!

Take care and have a fantastic new year xx

Morning from the kitchen here at "Cafe Halse" as Molly and I have nick named the place.
I am sitting with DGD trying, and failing, to keep her occupied as DS's mate and his girlfriend are asleep in my reclining chair, and DS up in his room.

Mooloo ....read what you have written again - this is the first week in your new home and you are letting others take over YOUR space!

I know you want to keep DS for as long as possible, and you want to make up for what he feels is your "neglect" of him in favour of the twins - but don't make yourself into a doormat. Making up to him doesn't mean taking on his mates as well! Concentrate on YOUR family - not the hangers on!

Sending {{hugs}} and love

Thankyou so much. That is a lovely thing to say to me. All of it.!:T

I dont feel I do tackle things well, so its nice to see someone elses opinion.

I have read it again. You are right, I am sometimes too soft for my own good.
I am going to galvenise myself and get the kitchen cleared and get the bodies moving. NOW

I think you do- you come on here and share your anger/outrage/sadness at whatever has happened and then its 'well what can I do about it'- we're all entitled to have a moan about what's going on in our lives but you are such a pro-active person who has had so many hurdles to get over and its slowly happening for you.

I wish you and your family all the best xx

Dear Mooloo
I hope you had the strength to tackle the hangers on - I'm sure you did and it needed to be done - your lovely new house it just that - YOUR house - not anyone elses.

I wish you better health for 2011 and the strength and forebearance to carry on tackling all that life throws at you - you have managed wonderfully so far - so as they say don;t let the Bu**ers get you down.

With lots of love, poistivity, and hugs for 2011

Hi Mooloo

I am a bit worried about DS' friend also being the son of the family from hell.

I thought you were worried about them coming after you after all the hassle from Twin 1 (or was it 2?), surely you did not want them knowing where you are living?

i would only let son sleep at home, no friends, i would make that very clear right now. (but we are all different so its your choice)

editing to add that the rule in our house (2 children , but older now)
is
if you don't live here you don't sleep or eat here

Oh Mooloo i am sorry you didn't get to see the boys

Iam sorry too that DS and you had words , i know you find it difficult to be firm with Ds as you feel that you give the girls and the grandchildren all the attention and then your guilt lets him get away with murder. Teenagers are pains in the rear (even the good ones) it passes but you have to be firm and stand your ground ....he will appreciate it later...honest

Hooe you get your night out and your car repair bill is small

Happy new year

Shaz

Thanks BB hope you are well and the artwork is still selling?

Trip to take DS's mate & girlfriend back to Towcester. Was going to check on the washing at my mums but I didnt have the keys on me? Sort of mislaid them since yesterday now!
The washing machine is fixed with the new pipe i bought yesterday. So i can catch up on the washing now.

DS went off an hour ago, with his Dad, and DGD went too. Twin2 came along for the ride, and helped pack DGD's bag. Her BFhas another day of work on the Bins, with the agency.

The mess is, still getting on top of me, but I really dont feel very well.
I am going to bed for an hour now. Nobody to look after for 2 nights.
My BF is coming here now, so we will be staying in. But at least I will get to be with him.
Maybe I will feel better and can get going on things tomorrow. New year and all.

The excess furniture has gone with them, so at least there is a bit more space in the kitchen and the sitting room now.!

Shaz, take heart. I was on 4 gabapentin, 3 x a day last year, but was able to reduce it, and havent had it increased lately.
I am now on the 3 x 3 again. But with the paracetamol and the tramadol.The voltaral I am on is now 2 x 75mg a day, it used to be 1 x 100mg last year.
So I think they just keep trying different combinations until they find the ones that work.

Molly is still unwell, but has been able to stay at home, and has been up for a few hours a day now. So I am hoping that she will continue to get better. Fingers crossed, etc etc.

Now I am going for that sleep.
