Oh my word......
Thread number three.

It is a ludicrous but somehow apt title.

Once again Thank You for keeping the faith. You won’t ever know how much you’ve all come to mean to me. If I write a book it will be dedicated to
My lollipop babies
My mum
You lot ❤️

Not much to report tonight but as “Battling On” hit 980 I have created thread three to chart the highs and many many lows so far.

Monday could bring good or very bad news. I’m fortifying myself with a rhubarb & ginger gin with clementine tonic.

So onwards I go. As I must.

Found you!!!! You've come so far @lollipop7 since that first thread. It's strange to feel such pride/interest/support for someone you've never met but I really am rooting for you and your lollipop babies x

You are doing amazing! There will be lots of highs and lows but you will get there!

Was just off to bed but I need a bloody gin now!
Following, because I want to see you succeed. I know you’re worried about the morning, but you deserve this to go right. We’re here either way xx

Checking in to new thread, still thinking of you Flowers

I didn’t get that job but I’m fine about it. Baby lollipop is so small and I think if it was meant to be I would have got it. They wanted someone with less workforce and more commissioning experience. They’ve said there are two jobs coming up which they’d like me to consider and that there is a job there for me they just need to figure it out.
So not all bad and to be honest with all the court stuff perhaps it’s for the best.

That sounds very promising Lollipop. You must have done a good interview. Well done!

Slingsanderrors · 15/01/2018 13:38

That’s good news lollipop, something to look forward to

lollipop7 · 15/01/2018 14:40

And no charges being brought.

I am trying not to fall apart right now

God it's shit isn't it. Big hugs and stay strong. Easier said than done but you've been so amazing through it all.

Idontmeanto · 15/01/2018 17:15

Huge hugs Lollipop! That’s a problem with the cps interpretation of abuse, not you!
What does your solicitor say?

lollipop7 · 15/01/2018 17:35

Right now I have no idea where to go from here.
Apparently there is no doubt I was in a controlling and abusive relationship. It is the ability to prove his intention.

I just feel like getting totally shitfaced to be honest.
