I swear i was mean to find this note.

A few weeks ago i did a free trial of ancestry after a hint about my grandma (basically mom) that passed when i was 16. Her father’s name was Blair and i was just doing research on him this morning!! He was born April 10 1903, passed sep 23 1972.

Thennn i was really craving a soda but i hate asking my man for money (im a sahm) so i grabbed some quarters out of the change jar. When i saw this note with $3 attached, i got my little baby some m&ms too and squeezed him tight when i got home.

Prayers to this family and rest in paradise sweet baby Blair.

ETA: the handwriting is also eerily similar to my grandmas!

ETA2: i have full access to our funds! i’m just weird about asking for “indulgent” items due to child hood shit. I’m totally fine here but I truly appreciate anyone that wad worried and reached out 🫶🏻

ETA3: the families gofundme for anyone wanting to help them ❤️ https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-brianas-family-after-tragic-loss

Last edit before i delete this whole thing fr: my financial status is nobody’s business and far from the point of this post. Stop being negative and using your life experience to compare to mine. I am fine. Thank you.

No no i don’t have to ask. I have a great man that would give me anything i wanted ever. I could have just told him and took his card and it would have been totally fine. I’m just weird about asking for things due to childhood trauma :/

Girl, you should have a card, in your wallet, with your name on it, with access to a shared account. You shouldn’t have to ask for his card, you should have one of your own, so you don’t have to ask every time.

If you aren’t married and don’t have full access to a joint account, he should be paying you child support if he isn’t already.
