 Quote From: noraann Long time no hear from me! Sorry about that. I have had some very difficult times with my life. Have not sold the house. Took it off the market, now we have two that are still wanting it, but no offers! Aggravating!!!! I also have been with my two grand daughters. Their Dad put it in their mind that my daughter has been molesting them! We did the whole thing of DCS. I spoke with the case worker and she thinks that there is something fishy about the Dad. I shared what I knew. A few days later, the littlest one told a lie. I sat down with her and we talked about ling and what it can do to people. She busted into the shakes and tears! I felt so bad for her. I asked her what was going on and she told me that daddy said that she could live with him and he would give her nicer things than mommy can. She said what she told the nice lady was a lie. This poor child had been living this for weeks! She held it in for two or three days after getting back from her dads. He failed to realize that I spoke with the girls two years ago and that they can come to me and tell me if anyone touches their private zone. I think that this is done with now. I am hoping so. No news is good news and they have left the girls home with Mom. He is trying everything in the book to lie and manipulate ever thing. He does not want to pay support. I also have gone through every test that one can almost possible go through. Doc found nothing except my weight. we sat , he talked very compassionately and of course...I cried. But it is what I needed. I have since then gone on 1200 calorie eating plan. Don't want to say diet. I have to change my nasty habits. I know I eat because of stress. It is very hard!! I miss my popcorn ever day. I eat before 6pm. If I snack it is fruit. Other than that......I am still alive.......I am trying hard to take time to appreciate what is around me even more. And thanking God for what I have. He is giving me strength, when I need it most. And here I thought he was ignoring me........I know better than that! LOL........it's nice to be back on the board. Took a while to get back in....new digs and all. I have tons of reading to do............Nora Hi Nora
It's good to see you back. Sounds like you've had your hands full. I am so glad you have a good relationship going with your granddaughters. It seems to have paid off in spades for your daughter in this situation. The best thing is that the girls now know that no matter what happens, you can be trusted. That may pay off even more as life goes on. They may talk to you even if they are afraid to tell Mom about things (and it could be anything from a broken heart to much worse). Every kid should have someone they can trust like that.
Did the doc tell you no popcorn? It is quite a healthy snack as long as you don't butter it and use very little salt (no sugar!). Air popped is best. I have diabetes and so I have to eat healthy - 1300 calorie plan. Popcorn is one of my favourite snacks. At least I can still eat it - I am supposed to avoid my other favourite: chocolate, for obvious reasons (and no, I am not always good - I cheat and eat it sometimes) |
