Alive

Hi all. Is anyone still out there?

I am alive and moved into my new home. I’m fighting with my former landlord, who had people randomly show up and mow the lawn without asking if I wanted them to, and then told me I owe him $90.

Also, I am fighting with DFS. Meredith and Elle are going to have to be moved, as much as it really hurts me. Meredith has been engaging in behavior that is not safe for Bubba. And although I’ve expressed my overwhelming concern, they are being slow. But I called and raised hell and I think that they are setting up something today. Which means that I am losing my sweet baby Elle, but there is nothing else I can do.

My new house is gorgeous and perfect and I am sooooo happy to have it! My internet won’t be hooked up until Monday so I am using my dads computer. I’ll write again as soon as I can.

    I am glad you are in your new home… :)
    I’m so sorry that Meredith and Elle have to move, but of course Bubba’s saftey comes first. I don’t know how you do what you do… I think I would be in tears daily.

    Sorry to hear about Meredith and Elle, but as someone already mentioned, you need to take care of the kids you have first. So glad you are moved, you homeowner you!

    Glad to hear from you again, and that you are loving your new house. So very sad about your sweet Baby Elle and Meredith. So sad for them, and for you. I am sorry. And I hope someone mows that landlord over. sheesh.

    It sucks to have to make a decision like that about Meredith and Elle, but the idea is for the kids to be in a safe home and if that’s not what’s happening for Bubba, you gotta do what you gotta do.
