Can it get harder?

I know it's been awhile since I have written anything.   My life has been filled with my job, rehearsals, and appointments.   And it's been very very rough.   I feel as if I'm going to implode if anything else is added to my troubles.   
The kids are doing well, or rather better.   I'm having lots of problems with TFI and communication.  B is leaving next week for his "30 day trial" and already I can tell that's going to be extremely hard.  G is in therapy now and we are doing lots and lots of testing.  The therapist is already seeing improvements each week.  This week G asked for permission for something.  I think it was the first time she has asked a question and it was even appropriate.  She wanted to go with my stage manager somewhere.  She also last night at supper said "i am happy"  That made me happy.
My stupid brother and his wife are split for good this time.  She has kidnapped my nephew and taken him to Oklahoma and has filed a false charge against my brother - gotten a restaining order.  I may never get to see my nephew again.   This is ripping me up as well as the rest of our family.  She is so immature.
My boss last week threatened my job if I keep fostering.
Today I'm heading to Arkansas for my uncle's funeral.   Yep things just keep piling on.  :-(  I'm not sure how much more I can take.

I wish I were brave

I am at a loss anymore with these kids.  I don't know what to do.  For awhile it really seemed like we were making some huge strides, but this weekend went backwards a lot.  B is having a really hard time adjusting to two sets of household rules and G is having a hard time adjusting to B being gone.  I can't stand myself when I'm with her and they frustrate me so much.   I don't know what to do.  I know I should just have them moved and admit to failure.
