Who's on holiday?


So far so good. Mum's been in Tenerife since Tuesday, and so far, no issues.
The Boy Wonder has been very pleasant, and actually asks me if it's OK to do things!
He's had a couple of mates stay over for two nights this week, (by arrangement / discussion, as opposed to telling me they were staying), what a difference!
Right now, he's stopping with one of his mates - Oh heavenly bliss! - but keeps phoning for things - more clothes etc. and today ffs, could I take the TV over!
Still, tonight I rang him to find out when he's coming back home, and he actually seemed concerned that I was OK on my own. How little do children know! lol. Loving it!

Luv 2 all,
Baz

PS Not commented on all you comments on previous posts, but they are appreciated.
&Just - re your question - somewhere between - I'm a beautiful beast!

The Beauty and the Beast (and me as well)


'tis early Monday morning - not long to go. The Boy Wonder's Mum is being despatched to Tenerife tomorrow for a two week break.
I'm left here looking after Zac, (the Boy Wonder), and Reeko (the beast).
wonderin how the the next 2 weeks are going to pan out. I'll get on better with the beast probably. Wish me luck, 'tho I'm sure Zac and I will cope - haha.
Luv 2 all, Baz

A child with a fear of death

An unusual title, but true.
For those who haven't read my previous post please scroll down, can't be bothered putting a link.
Zac is my "inherited" son, who at the moment is going through a period of insecurity about his own life.
He has a belief that he is going to die at an early age, and has other issues. Through his doctor he has got a referral to CAMHS (children and adolescent mental health services).
I'm doing whatever I can to support him, and would like to thank / ackowledge the support I've had from specifically Keliss, Torchy!, and Ty for the IM's i've had with them in the last couple of days. It really is appreciated, guys - many thanks.
More updates to be posted shortly.
Luv to you all,
Baz

I'm Back, Sorted & Happy

After a long period of absence, I'm now blogging again.
No, it's not me in the kart - the little shit won't let me get my bum in the seat - it's my surrogate /acquired "son".
He's spent 12 of his 15 years in care, but is now back with his birth mother and me (for the past 6 months).
Will be posting regularly from now on.

Been Busy in the Real World






First, apologies for not posting for over two months, and also not reading blogs and commenting.

The following piece by Angela Cooke has great significance for me, and may offer some insight regarding my absence from blogging.




Care Order

The boy taken into care does not know he must keep himself to himself.
He crashes into other people's walls. He spills into roads.
Crude, primordial sounds flow from his mouth.
His voice breaks through double glazing.

He soon knew his coming was not joyful.
His kind drown in stagnant pools - burn to death in derelict barns.
Because he is not lovely, he learnt early that he who needs most love receives the least.

He scratches round for love.
He clings to strangers - hangs on their arm.
He whines for love.

But he will learn to live on the meagre amount doled out -
to keep his body in its own small space.
He will learn to be confined to his allotted territory.


Food for thought, perhaps?
Bye for now, Baz

Is Faecesbook Constipated?


Does anyone else have this problem?

From about midnight (GMT), I cannot get onto Faecesbook, for a few hours.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow


Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

Somewhere over Nibblebit's rainbow
I had two blogs
Where, oh where are they?
