Some in some out.

This morning I visited a local  charity shop, I was surprised that Steve let me go on my own.

I took some clothes that I no longer wear and bought some things for when I move.

I bought a craft kit of crochet Christmas baubles on a string, I also bought a bag of assorted baubles in an mixture of colours. I bought a black dress to wear to Betty's funeral, a set of four table mats, three dessert spoons and two china tea plates.

Steve has agreed that I can take half the cutlery and crockery etc but we only have three tea plates and  three dessert spoons so I bought some extra.

When I returned home Steve was stood with Beano waiting for me at the bus stop. He wasn't happy that I'd taken so long, nemmind!

By your comment that Steve has agreed to allow you take some things, does this mean he knows you are really leaving and has accepted the fact? So pleased that you are preparing for yourself and a new chapter for you and Beano, enjoy the home making with your thrifted bargains, always feels good to find nice homey things.

That sounds like another good addition to your new home. Also lovely that you managed to get a dress for Betty’s funeral. Hope Steve doesn’t want to go with you. Catriona

Won't it be wonderful when you can please yourself what you do, when and for how long, without someone tracking your every move. You got some great purchases there.

I'm glad you managed to get some of the things that you needed.

I hate to say it, he is not going to like giving up the control,at worst he might throw a tantrum and never find out where you have moved too

I worry about him doing something to ruin your plans. Keep safe - and Beano too.
