Found it!

After a worrying and frustrating week when I simply could not find my purse (but knew in my gut that I had misplaced it somewhere rather than actually losing it or having had it stolen), I finally located it. At the bottom of a box at the back of my walk in cupboard at school. RELIEF!! I was just at the point of conceding defeat and cancelling my cards.
Very worried that I am so muddle headed at the moment. I think I am trying to fit too much in my brain at the moment.
