Fostering and the Single Guy. My story…why a blog? It’s a strange time. A little respite… →. Yup – still waiting. July 15, 2012. Friday will be the six month anniversary of my licensing – seems like a long time to wait for a placement. In the beginning I was pretty consumed by the whole thing. Then I stopped thinking about it much at all. Now I guess I’m back to thinking about it a lot. This entry was posted in Waiting. It’s a strange time. A little respite… →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Fostering and the Single Guy. My story…why a blog? Newer posts →. January 20, 2012. So as I posted earlier today, I just learned from my SW that I got my foster care license. Got a congratulatory email from her late yesterday saying that I passed my home visit, but wasn’t quite sure that meant the license was in the bag. Sure enough she confirmed today the license is in the bag. January 20, 2012. January 10, 2012. January 8, 2012. I fear all that’s about to change. I need to kid it up. I have calls out t...

Fostering and the Single Guy. My story…why a blog? Maybe not →. February 26, 2012. I told her that I could certainly do this in the short-term, but some pieces would have to fall into place in order to make it possible on a longer term – most specifically the availability of an after school program in his town (and ideally busing, but that could be figured out). She said that’s great and that she would call me if she learned anything more. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Maybe not →.

https://singleguyfostering.wordpress.com/2012/08/27/dupdate
Fostering and the Single Guy. My story…why a blog? August 27, 2012. Well on Monday she emailed me with a thousand apologies and an update saying D was acting out and exhibiting troubling behaviors. She left me voicemails on Tuesday and Wednesday with further updates, neither of them good. I had two crazy busy days at work (7 am to 10 pm two days in a row…how do I manage that if I’m a foster parent? How much should I (can I) try to advocate for this kid? This entry was posted in DCF.

I learned this from my social worker, when I called her to check in on what was going on. This entry was posted in DCF. It’s a strange time →. 2 responses to “ Maybe not.
