Adventures in adoption and other things. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. Newer posts →. May 2, 2015. I’m almost there. That icky burnout place. I can feel the exhaustion in my body; it’s feeling worn down, my stomach is doing weird things, my skin is getting little patchy red spots like it does when I’m stressed and no matter how much sleep I get I want more.

Adventures in adoption and other things. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. Hi I'm Lindsay. I live in Calgary, Alberta with my husband Gord, stepson Anthony and our adopted son Jonathan. I like to sew things, grow things, bake things and eat things.mostly cheese. And chips. I also have two cats that I spend more time than what's probably considered healthy taking pictures of and petting. November 21, 2015. It’s extremely gratifying to say the least. His trust in Gord growing. We can.
Under the Surface | Grey Street
https://greystblog.wordpress.com/2015/06/07/under-the-surface
Adventures in adoption and other things. Skip to primary content. June 7, 2015. We’ve had a rough couple of weeks with Jonathan since returning from 5 days away. At school, daycare and home he’s been bossy and rude and talking back, hitting, yelling, refusing activities at school, has a really low frustration tolerance…and having a really hard time overall. The next morning we had a picnic breakfast in his bedroom and he asked “what do you want to talk about? I know he wasn’t consciously scared or ...

And the time to jump is coming very soon! I have a vacation time coming up from work that includes a trip away with Gord (first trip away from Jonathan for FOUR nights!
Family Tree | Grey Street

Adventures in adoption and other things. Skip to primary content. July 19, 2015. As we pulled up to the house one day a couple of weeks ago after a fun day of summer camp, Jonathan said to me in a quiet and not at all like him voice, “Thank you mommy for adopting me I like living here.”. But something felt different this time and inside my head was going “JUST SAY IT JUST SAY IT JUST SAY IT JUST SAY IT”. And then I said it. You also have TWO more brothers.”. Then off he went to have a bath, but not befor...

Living on the edge of the world: Hunger
http://livingworldsedge.blogspot.com/2016/12/hunger-my-first-week-in-home.html
Friday, 23 December 2016. My first week in the Home. A medical is what the young nurse says. No choice. I can remember the nurse weighing me. Just a point on a chart. My point so low. 8220;You must eat more” the nurse said – like an echo of what she said to Eve. Eat more? Sometimes, in my former world, to eat at all was just a hope. A hope that perhaps this weekend I would have a breakfast, lunch and tea. “No lunch for you, you wicked girl and no tea for answering back.”. No chance for Ella! It's all gon...
Living on the edge of the world: April 2016
http://livingworldsedge.blogspot.com/2016_04_01_archive.html
Friday, 29 April 2016. Cats - but not the famous musical! In December 2014 I wrote. Regular readers will know the story of our two refuge cats Romulus and Remus. They did everything together and it was somehow fitting that fate had brought them into our lives. So it is with great sadness I have to tell your all that Romulus died of old-age last Thursday and that Remus was put to sleep by the vet this morning. At the moment the cats' bed is still where it has always been. Perhaps at the weekend we wil...
Living on the edge of the world: August 2015
http://livingworldsedge.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, 27 August 2015. Children in Care and their memory gaps. It was while she was pregnant that Ella started to get concerned about a small, highly specific, memory loss. In the end she went to the doctor with a list of questions. Is it normal to have gaps in your memory? The time from being taken away from Mr Nut Job to meeting Eve in the Home is very bitty in my head. Eve calls it a jigsaw puzzle with pieces missing! Lots of questions, some that I didn't understand. The doctor wasn’t much he...
Living on the edge of the world: July 2016
http://livingworldsedge.blogspot.com/2016_07_01_archive.html
Friday, 29 July 2016. Eve and Ella praised as "influential figures"! I suppose we should both be flattered at being labelled as "influential". Particularly when the comment was made by somebody who has a lifetime of academic and practical experience in the twin areas of fostering teenagers and in the senior management of Children's Homes. If only it were true! Can you imagine a major retail outlet that has no interest in the views of the customers? Even Governments are called to account every five years ...
Living on the edge of the world: January 2016
http://livingworldsedge.blogspot.com/2016_01_01_archive.html
Friday, 29 January 2016. Lost and found - a January project! During the long and rather boring weeks after Christmas and the New Year Ella and I made a real effort to track down some former friends who we hadn't heard from for at least six months. We had three successes and one failure. Was a former subscriber to the Adoption and Fostering in the UK forum. And that is where we first met him. His own parents had been long-term foster parents. For a while because her final teen has been moved onwards and u...
Living on the edge of the world: March 2016
http://livingworldsedge.blogspot.com/2016_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 22 March 2016. Book - How I survived in and out of Care. The book is available through Amazon in the UK. If you were fostered or if you spent time living in a Children’s Home you need to read this book. Many books have been written and many websites have been created that discuss fostering from the perspective of the foster parent. Virtually nothing, until now, has been written from the point of view of the child. A REVIEW OF THE BOOK. Not enough is known about how it feels to be fostered. The a...
Living on the edge of the world: August 2016
http://livingworldsedge.blogspot.com/2016_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, 25 August 2016. Heaven, hell and death. Far too many foster children have experienced the death of somebody near to them and I can think of several of my friends who ended up in care because of parental death. If they are like many of us they must wonder sometimes if they will see their parents again or if death is really the end of everything. If a child dies before he or she is capable of making genuine moral decisions, there is only innocence, and the child will experience the same type of f...

Some contributor’s experiences were the opposite, with holidays being calmer and more relaxed, probably due ...
