    Sorry for the loooooong absence. My poor stepson finally passed away on the 2nd of July, his funeral was on the 10th. It was just horrendous, made worse by the antics of someone who should have known better. It was like being stuck on the Jeremy Kyle show for weeks.

    My 2nd and 3rd Purse are all over the place. It will take me ages to sort it all out, I've not spent much of my grocery budget, but I will owe the bulk of it to my 2nd Purse, we managed to survive with what we had in stock, we only bought a few wee bits and bobs.

    Just popped on to say hi to all of you and welcome to all the newcomers. Boy have I missed you all, this thread keeps me focused and grounded.

    Mothership, so sorry for your loss and I am thinking of you.

    It is good to have you back and we are all here for you.
    2nd purse £50.00
    3rd purse £100.00

    I am so sorry to hear of your sad loss Mothership and so sad that someone made this terrible time even worse than it had to be :(

    You are all darlings, thank you so much for your kindness and support, it is greatly appreciated.

    Some of you may remember me bleating about the ex wife who pushed her way in and screamed at the boy who was dying, causing him to have a seizure and be rushed into hospital. It turned out that didn't happen at all, what made it worse was it was the boys own mother who told some of us this version, others got different ones. I will never get my head round the harsh reality of what was happening without all these dramas. There are a lot of sad warped people out there.

    Love and light to you all.xxx
