{{{{{{{{{{{Wendy}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Thanks for your advise, whether I paid for it or not.

LOL It still counts.
My grief for Neil seems to be taking top priority so I'm going to get throught that first. The hurt and anger I felt for being left out of my ex MIL's death and funeral was a burst the other night, but nothing is coming up again for now so I'm going to concentrate getting through the greiving period for Neil, awaiting his funeral services... not until July 8, which is a real puzzlement to me

... and just dealing with that and whatever else comes up, but I promise not to take any action on the family front until I'm thinking more clearly.
Just an aside, Kiddo... When I was trying to get through your first post about my DIL, I kept thinking "What about ME? What about the kids? What about my son?" I've sorted that out and realized that I have to take care of me first before I can take care of anything else. I guess that's what was upsetting to me... that I was needing to take care of me. I didn't want to hear about anything else.

Thanks for having the courage to hang in with me. {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Wendy}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
