It's going fine here, calm, serene, and pottering along quite well, even Duds seems fairly content with it all..... but there is a battle raging over finance elsewhere  

 

My sister was going to send me the maintenance money she receives from my niece's Dad every month, but he has cancelled the payments and is saying he won't pay unless my sister pays too. Honestly. There's a 16 year old girl that needs thinking about here.  He pays sod all anyway, as he was so aggressive that my sister bypassed the CSA for a quiet life, and saved him a small fortune. 

 

Meanwhile, muggins here is buying furniture to turn a spare room into a functional bedroom, buying her shoes cos her only pair had big holes in, not to mention food and mobile phone top ups blah blah blah. 

 

I personally think he's trying to force everyone's hand so she has to go and live with him, but that would take her hundreds of miles away from her school and her friends etc. Plus she hasn't seen him for over 3 years (her choice -as he's a bit of an alcoholic...)

 

Anyway, as far as I'm concerned the money is irrelevant, we'll cope without it, but I feel sorry for my niece. She's got two totally nutty parents!
