ReplyDeleteWhat a headache! Terrible payback for trying to do something nice for someone!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, I am not able to reply to responses! Still working on things ... although I think this one is Blog Spot related
ReplyDeleteDear Awkward Widow and Friends, and to think, these crooks don't lose one second of sleep - buncha low-down reprobates. Anyway, Awkward, i love your picture of the widow in one of those poofey 19th century dresses.
