MOOLOO'S continuing saga Part 4

Some people have nothing better to do. How awful to make up such awful rumours, even reading about it has made me cross. I hope that you manage to get it sorted out. x

This morning i am off to get my hair done, before going to the meeting at the offices. I went to the Manual Handling Course yesterday. Rather long winded, but at least its done now.
had a brief chat with one of the women in the office and she said that the takings were still up, and that they were still keen to have me onboard.
The work to build the shop up again may take a little longer then I had hoped, but I am dreaming up some ways to get them some Good publicity. I shall talk to the bosses about that, as its not my department to do. (I noticed that they dont even mention the shop on thier own website!). Oh well it is a small charity afterall.
Time to get DGD to school.
I have lost my voice, have a pain in my chest so its a struggle, but I have to carry on.
Starting to loose the knot of anger. never felt that way for so long before that I can ever, ever remember.

The hairdresser was rather harrassed and booked with other jobs so I just helped her sweep up the hair, and made Tea for everyone, and then had my quick burst on the sunboothe and came home. I will have my hair done next time.
The meetings went well, although as I feel so poorly with the sore chest, loss of voice etc, it was a struggle to get through them as I was one of the main conversationalists so to speak.
I have been given Free reign (? spelling), to impliment what I can to the shop and the other volunteers that turned up at the meeting are all understanding why, etc and are on board. They even have volunteered to do other shifts if the needs be. Bless them. Those that didnt turn up,- to do with the problems I am having will have the choice to join us all in making it a success or not, as they wish. But after talking with the bosses they said that it cannot be helped, and that some people do not like change but it is necesssary for the future of the shop.
I am struggling so am not planning on doing much else today. And will stay at home tomorrow. To rest up.
I have the baby at the weekend and now I am worried that I will not be well enough.

Mooloo you sound like Mary Portas when she tried to help the charity shop!

Sorry you are feeling rough

*Robin*

Mooloo, am glad the meeting went well, and hope you feel better in the morning after a good night's sleep.

Ha, yes the complainant causing trouble on FB called me exactly that, Mary Portas. Now that in a way is quite a complement, but the damage that she could potentially have caused for the charity is what angers me the most.
Anyway, I am now looking forward and not dwelling on the problems.
The shop will be my "work" forcus for a while and I will hope that it will lead me back into proper work at some stage. It will show me how much I can and cannot do, and will get me a routine that I desperately need so that the family do not think I am continually at thier beck and call. Etc etc.
But today, I have a chest pain, (the cough causes I suppose), and still no proper voice,croaking at DGD.
Bless her she has been very good for me while I have been like this. Luckily today I have Molly's daughters help, and can sit back home and rest (ish). I want to make safe the front room for the baby, and my bedroom needs space for the travel cot.
I wanted to do more than that around the house, but not sure I have the energy if the truth be told.
I am expecting a food delivery, and a parcel of ribbons that I ordered today. (Missed it yesterday when they tried to deliver it, so had to ring for a redelivery today.)
Time to get my breakfast proper, I have only managed a cuppa and a bananna so think I ought to try something else.

SWEAR SWEAR AND DOUBLE SWEAR.
Before I have even finalised a decision as to whether or not DGD could stay over night with her Mum (after the house has been sorted etc etc,) someone has called the Social Services and put in a complaint.
I give up.
i lost my temper and told SS where to go.
I am so angry that I tried to get to the boss at the top, but she is off ill.
I really think that someone out there really has it in for me and mine.
And of course they will not tell me who rang up.
Sick to death of Social Services.
Maybe they should have taken my baby away like they did my boys. Tear a womans heart out completely why dont they.

Why cant they leave a family alone. This is intimidation as far as I am concerned.
I dont think I can take much more, I really do not. all my trying to be brave and all my optimism. Why? I am not a good judge of a situation. Cant keep my family together myself.


I HATE SOCIAL SERVICES AND WILL NOT BE CO-OPERATIVE WITH THEM ANYMORE. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH THEY WANT A WAR THEY GOT ONE.

Sorry to hear about that Mooloo. I'm not sure, but is it a complaint about you and DGD or about your other children? Whatever the complaint was, I hope that it can be easily resolved.

Errata

I'm so sorry this has happened, it must be so distressful, but if the complaint is without foundation you have nothing to worry about.

Complaint is about something that hasnt even happened. i.e. a future event on the calander for DGD to stay with her mum over night.
We have done all the risk assessments before hand, and made sure that the back up is near by etc. Twins carer has been the one who has been encouraging and organising for this. I even mentioned the fact that it was a hope for the future when talking to the Head of Childrens services a while ago.
As if I would put DGD at risk after all this time. She has been with me for 3 years now for godsake.
Anyway just had the Post Adoption team ring me back and they have siad that they have no worries. That she has made a call to the person who has pulled DGD's file, and that she may ring me back but to just go ahead with my plans anyway. That they have no concerns. (Its just some people twisting the knife) of course she cannot tell me who complained (even before the act has even occurred of course).
Right am still in real anger mode. Even a cup of tea has not calmed me down. I have a stinking headache and all I needed was this ontop of being ill. I have the little one tomorrow morning, and I need to be fit.
