I have lost my partner and father within 2 months of one another. 6 months have elapsed since my partner passed away. He was my rock! I am an executor for my late father, have been accused, threatened and criticised by step family. I have applied for jobs, started downsizing as I have to move in with my sister and we are still clearing Mum’s from 2017. I cannot move until de-cluttering and some re-decorating has been completed. Now, my partner’s children are starting to come to clear their father’s house, telling me when they are coming and not asking whether it is convenient. I’ve returned from a much-needed 4-day break, to discover that I was emailed while I was offline and that my partner’s wardrobes and drawers have been cleared. He made provision for me to live in his house for 12 months. I feel his space has been violated, mine too, temporary as the space is. The benefits of the break utterly wiped out and I feel drained. What to do? I was supposed to be re-charging the batteries…
