Yes, Virginia, there is a hell
And I seem to be stuck in it. This estate stuff is comparable to being stuck in treacly quicksand, if there were such stuff. I begin to think that my brain is not working as well as it used to, since the ground rules seem to shift constantly. The other problem with this organizing process is that I do not have enough room to maneuver, literally and figuratively. Managing the bookkeeping for two trusts, one estate, three generations of households, even just getting the trash out the door requires Herculean strength. Keeping seven to ten people's financial and emotional interests in mind as I make life changing decisions is very tiring. And that does not take into account what the law says I must do. That is the first responsibility.
So that is why I don't write here very much lately. It doesn't seem to change much or quickly. When I ask myself, what shall I write today, the answer is usually, "More of the same, spare us"!
I do wonder, though, how all of my LJ friends are doing - better than before, I hope.
