    Not always here

    Please forgive me if it seems that I don't check in alot,but I have been lurking when I find some quiet time in this crazy world of mine.
    My boy friend of 17 years has finally decided to buy a house so a hunting we have been and a hunting we will go until we find home permently well in the middle of house hunting and packing up the townhouse I decided to fight for custody of my 2nd grandson whom just turned 8,His Father had custody up until december of last year when he put him on a plane from Denver Col to NYC to his mother(my oldest daughter) Well we drove down and spent the night in the parking garage of JFK just to be there in time for her to get him off the plane.She then moves in with an old friend,but just ups and leaves her son with them for about 2 months,then I pick him up for a weekend visit didn't take him back there this was around Easter.My daughter then moves in with us after leaving her latest boyfriend.I'm sorry to say here that she lasted until june 30rth,she leaves my townhouse to go and see her new boyfriend in jail and decides she needs alone time!

    I'm so glad you are fighting for your grandson! Children need a steady environment that it seems he hasn't been getting. I hope your house hunt goes well and things work out very very well for you!!! Hugs, Dinah

    Just found out today That the Father of my boy calls the law guardian and the cps worker that is helping me and tells them that after thinking about it long and hard he's not going to fight me for his son but is going to let me keep him WooHoo half the battle is won now to fight my daughter,but honestly I don't see that as much as a fight as it will take away from her "alone time" Heck the only aloone time I get is when everybody is sound to sleep,then I lock my self in the bathroom and use up all the hot water and bubble bath!

    What a lucky child to have you on his side and getting custody. He needs someone stable in his life right now and thank you for doing that. I have a friend who first had custody of her oldest grandson who then moved out when he was of age and got married and now she has custody of his half-brother and he is about the same age (think he turned nine this month). It takes a lot of strength and love and I know, even with what you are going through, he will be just fine. Good luck with house hunting and your grandson.

    We will be thinking of you, hang in there.
