Today a social worker, not ours, showed up unannounced. I always knew they could do that. It just hasn't even happened in the almost 15 months we have dealt with them. We had a nice visit. She encouraged me to utilize the day care. If I need groceries and it is already going to be a full day to pay for then by all means stop at the store before picking up the kids. She encouraged me to keep my sanity and make sure I am getting breaks. Being a single parent is a lot different. So I will take my breaks where I can get them.
She also included a message to me from our social worker. The state is going ahead with the guardianship, only now they are just using me as the guardian. Seems like the smart and prudent thing to do in light of all the transitions in our life lately.
I sure am glad we cleaned house last night. It wasn't overly messy, but I always feel better if it is picked up when company is coming by.
