My life
All I know is I want my life back. I have worked hard to be where I wanted to be at this time in my life and now every thing has changed, I am raising three graandchildren and trying to get custory of another. One GDis almost 6 and has been with me for 2 years. Her mother is in jail on drug charges so is no help, not that she was ever much help. My other daughter just decided New Years day that she did not want her two teenagers any more so she sent them to me. The older girls are very well behaved, do good in school, and help around the house but the little one makes up for it with her behavior. She will not let me out of her sight at home, but she goes to school, church or to visit friends with no problem. She talks non stop and I have no privacy. Now my boyfriend of eight years has terminal cancer. He has been my rock through all this. I am his sole caregiver. I work full time as a special education teacher at a state residential center for the mentally retarded which can be very stressful Where are my beach vacations and gambling weekends at Cherakee? Where is the quiet in my small town home? I love these kids but I could sure use a break. Sorry, just needed to vent.
