7 LATE TWENTIES

upon reaching my late twenties, my life just seemed to go downhill my father's health had worsened, and he was in hospital, gravely ill I went to see him mid-week, and then again on Saturday but he lost the fight next Friday, when he sadly passed away. I remember well the funeral as it was a very special date it was our wedding anniversary, but I'd no heart to celebrate our loss was felt immeasurably, but with my brother most of all I'll take care of mum he said, as tears began to fall. the next few years were stable, and most things seemed just fine we'd go out with friends at weekends, drinking cider, beer and wine life was being good to us, with no problems we could see and we found with dads passing, we'd been left a legacy this finally gave us both a chance, myself and my dear spouse to put down a deposit, so we could buy ourselves a house to own a house felt special, no more paying all that rent the legacy that dad left us, was so truly heaven sent. that first house that we owned, we spent so many happy years then my husband lost his job, so that released my deepest fears we couldn't pay the mortgage, so the house we had to sell and we faced some fairly lean times, whilst in that financial hell.
