MOOLOO'S continuing saga Part 4

SDG31000

Finger's crossed for you Mooloo. Don't let them force you into agreeing anything you aren't happy with and make sure you understand everything, especially moneywise.

Good luck xxx

Thanks all.
I am now officially DGD's Legal Guardian. Granted Special Guardianship today. All my fears with facing up to the father were unnecessary as the court decided not to serve papers on him as he didnt have any legal parental responsibilities anyway. Phew. So 6 weeks of worry for nothing!. Wish they had told me that in the beginning. Also 6 weeks extra waiting.
Anyway its now done. Just waiting for the paperwork in the post.
One HUGE hurdle finally over. The Social Will come for a final fairwell to DGD and we will be signed off.
The LAC review that was due to be held on Thursday can now be cancelled.
Less meetings less hassle etc etc. I am so relieved.
Next battle to meet, finding help for the twins and then get DS sorted out. He is going to be coming home, for a while anyway.

:eek::eek: Mooloo - I do hope that you are going to put in place some pretty firm ground rules for DS this time ....he needs to learn NOW that he has to respect your home - and not drag all the dregs from his previous "lives" back with him! You have made this little house into a haven for you and DGD - don't let him mess it all up again, will you?

I know its hard, that you want to make allowances because of all that has happened in the past - but he is 18, he doesn't have the same problems as the twins - and he is old enough to appreciate that he really has to get his act together this time.

But I am glad that things have fallen into place with DGD at long last - one thing ticked off the Mooloo list

DS is 19 already!. But he has (or so it seems) realised that the dregs have done him no good, and that he wants to move on. We will just have to see what he does, but he has been trying of late. Lets hope he continues.
Time to get my act together and organise the evening meal.
I am really tired!. Relief I suppose. Been tense for a while.
DGD wants meatballs again! NO! she cannot eat the same thing day in and day out.

On another good note, my bank account switch incentive of £100 was paid into my bank account today.
So thats gone straight across to the savings account. Today must be a lucky day!.
I also had lots of compliments from those that I came across today on how well I looked etc. Which really has given the old ego a bit of a boost. Feel quite good as well.
Bonus.

Delighted you got the outcome you wanted, less stress now hopefully! :j I think you may let the rest of us know the meatball recipe!

So pleased for you Mooloo, we all knew you were special now you officially are

Like Thorsoak I have concerns about DS coming home and think you need some ground rules.

Hope you sleep better tonight knowing that things are more settled.
