Enjoy your vacation Callaway. Take care of that ankle.

[Trigger 11]

We are going on vacation Saturday (tomorrow) and we will return a week from Sunday.

I miss you already!

Sadly, the issue of finding assisted care for my mother-in-law is now moot. Her illness got the best of her, and she died this morning. Thank you everyone who posted kind thoughts earlier.

Sorry to hear that. My own MIL is probably not long for this world, and she still hasn't filed her will--still tweaking it. If she died tomorrow, there's a possibility--unless she has some version of a will filed through her lawyer--that it will be intestate, which basically means the state gets to divide the spoils. Either way, its gonna be messy. I just hope not too much. I've already been through this once, with my father's estate. But whatever happens, I know I'll get through it (somehow) and hopefully learn some useful things.

I'm back.

I had fun, but I am sunburned now.

Welcome back, Callaway.

If someone dies intestate here, the Public Trustee acts as executor and takes a fair-sized chunk of the assets for itself. Fortunately we have avoided that; it would have made an already sad situation worse. As my husband put it, "The only good thing about all this is that I never have to do it again."

*pokes at the sunburn, fascinated with the changes*

Glad to see you back. Despite the fact that it seems as if this place is still going, you were missed - we just aren't sure how, yet.  (remind us, please)

:lol:

I'm attempting to be back.

Miss this place, so I will, it just takes longer than I want.

I'll drop in now and then. And one day, just will be back I guess.

[odeon]

Welcome back, then. We've missed you.

Thank you, both of you.

Do you mean we take more of your time than you would like?

No, not at all.

Was a bit overwhelmed lately.
Found myself staring into nothingness a lot.
That is, if I was not doing things reclaiming the house, and spending time with my girls. And other practical stuff that needed doing.
Only got online to see Sir Les. The rest was too much.

[Trigger 11]

Gotta go! Too much personal shit going down.

[GalileoAce]

I suppose I'm back.
