Another hug from me. So sorry for your loss. That you are passing and able to function at all seems very impressive. Make sure you take the time you need though xx

Do you remember the bit near the end in the railway children (book or film) where she is waiting at the station and the missing father gets off the train and she says 'Daddy, My Daddy!'. I cry every time for that. 

That's what his dog is doing whenever anyone comes in the gate or parks in the drive. Gets me every time. Poor dog.

So, inbetween not coping fits, I have:

managed to give notice in his two mobile accounts, luckily they were in my name. £60 a month saved.

informed all four pension funds and requested the various forms. 

Informed the life assurance company who are sending me forms

applied for the bereavement payment from the gov thing

made an appointment to see funeral director today 

posted something on linked in for his former colleagues

It does not sound like a lot but they are quite upsetting to do. Thank you to me a few years ago doing a household file that meant the data I needed was easy to find at least.

found a hot water bottle as I no longer have a husband to put my cold feet on. The kitten slept on it mostly. 

MrT brought the random stuff I had ordered, and we had cheese omelettes to use up the eggs. Picked the plum toms and the beans. 

Today I need to ring the bereavement office at the hospital, and meet with the funeral director. Need fuel in my car on the way and to think if I need anything from a physical shop (if I am in any state to be seen)
