LaynieK's Journal

What a whirlwind of a few weeks it has been! Things however have taken a turn for the BETTER!

The last 4 weeks with my oldest daughter have gone beautifully! No major issues, YAY! Things with my younger two have gone flawless as well.

Ugh, where to begin. A few weeks ago I saw on my daughters yearbook page that she had self injured again. I called the foster family and told them for her safety and THEY WENT OFF! The foster monster called my daughter selfish, attention seeking, stupid and a fool and yes those are the ACTUAL words she used.

They placed my daughter in respite for a weekend because the foster family is falling apart. That weekend I got tons of time because the respite home was too busy and did not have time for her. Fine by me, I benefited! At least my daughter knows that she is wanted AT HOME!!!

Since then it has come out that the foster people are drinking every night. I dropped my daughter off one evening after a visit and they did not even remember me dropping her off. Then last night the foster guy was so out of it that he tore into my daughter because he did not recongnize my vehicle and wanted to know who brought her home. I drive the same car I have been driving for near two years now!

Well, CASA, the gaurdian ad-liedem of my oldest daughter is recommending transitioning HOME! We go to court on Tuesday and me, my attorney, my daughter, her attorney, CASA and the CASA supervisor are ALL recommending weekends, with return home to be slated in on the 24th.  I AM SOOOOOO EXCITED!

I know I am going to get the whats changed from the judge so here it is;

I go to family therapy once a week on Mondays, right now just my oldest daughter and I

I take my younger two to gymnastics every tuesday

I go to my DBT group every Wednesday evening

I go to DBT individual every Thursday afternoon

I see a nutritional therapist every other thursday morning

I take all three girls to gymnastics every thursday evening and have dinner with them

I go to anger management classes every Friday evening

I have my younger two daughters every morning before and after school except Monday

I have the younger two every weekend from Friday after class til Sunday when I work.

I still work swing/grave 44 hours a week (Sun, Mon, Tues. 19-0730 and Thursday 0100-0730)

I also completed 6 months of clean UA's and would glady keep doing them to prove I am doing nothing wrong. I have maintained a healthy weight for over 3 months now, since intitially dropping after all this removal business occured.

SOooo, I think it should go WELL!!

We go back to court TUESDAY! as CASA and the CASA supervisor contacted my attorney and asked her to push the issue into court as we need to start progressing HOME!!!

I am soooo excited I can hardly sleep, its almost over and I will NEVER allow these evil people to enter my life ever again.
