Today it has been 8 weeks since I lost my hubby Ade. I cannot put into words the loss that I am feeling. I hurt like I never thought was possible and I must have cried a river.
I have fantastic friends who are supportive but they are also missing Ade. I do not know what to do with myself I just want Ade to tell me everything will be okay, but I know it’s not because he is not here with me. I feel completely robbed of our life together, we had so many plans and dreams.
I seemed to have a good day yesterday but today I have been crippled with anxiety /guilt. Nothing will ever be the same again.
I have had to delete and rewrite this so many times because I cannot see properly through my tears.
I just wanted to share my thoughts at this time
I said soft drinks and tea / coffee free everything else was to be paid for.
But I didn’t specify only straight coffee.
So ended up paying for lattes, cappuccinos, syrups in coffees, mochas etc.
And it soon added up!
I don’t want that to sound mean spirited of me.
But when you are catering for a large number of people it matters.
Especially when I didn’t quite know what my financial situation was going to be.
Unfortunately, they do. I had several people scoff the salmon and beef, before I got a look in. Kate. Xxx
In your shoes I'd have wanted to have a right bitch with my husband!
My stu was 54, almost 55. I feel bitter at people who are lucky enough to be in their 80s ,I now do not want to grow old anymore as retirement with my soul mate is now off the cards so what's the point.
Valen’s extended family asked the bar staff for boxes to take home leftovers!
I understood for those with a pretty long journey who wouldn’t get home till late.
But some were taking up to 3 boxes
The reason it pi**ed me off was that my beautiful Valen had asked that leftovers were to be distributed to families in need via the church his funeral was held at.
And that was specified at the venue.
