    My tax credit award has been adjusted. So I will be fine if I can continue to earn my estimated for the year. If Social do pay me a £100 a week each then there will be plenty to replace their clothes, and buy food and eventually a few more toys etc. And put some savings away for them.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    So friends and lurkers.
    A reader has complained to Social and because they had worked out who I am, I cannot post anymore. Even though I don't name names etc

    So that's it folks.
    End of an era.

    Hope who ever bothered to be so concerned is happy now. My mental health is now in question!

    That's awful, if you can't post here I'm sure you have the pm details of many of your friends and can keep on with your journal.
    I wish you all the best going forward.
    I think plenty of people know who you are etc but have never thought to do anything with that knowledge.

    Considering the exact same issue was raised in February by social services about your discussion of the childrens lives and whereabouts, I am not surprised they have monitored your postings since then.

    As was mentioned before they are thousands of free private blog options if you want a private diary space.

    No I don't think I will bother. In case I slip back in to things about family.

    Give yourself some headspace once you've closed the shop if you can. Thinking of you and yours . Try to look after you whenever possible .
