I suffer the same in most cases. By the middle of writing this post, it's either very late or I have other problems and I'm no longer at all happy with what results. I start off with enthusiasm but then I lose my straight line.
I'm sure, from your experience, no one will notice that it's a less good post!

Ha! I hope so. You know what, Dan? The money doesn't matter. I agree. I probably will just roll over into a trust for the kids anyway. It's the entire process on the heartache and knowing he went before his time. It's having to deal with his life which was complicated and putting it all to rest. I say this because people think that when you are inheriting something that it's the be-all to get all, but in fact that usually is never about the money. May we all these things to rest this year.

Of course, it's not about the money, of course first and foremost is the grief and regret that he's gone. I didn't say anything about that because I didn't know any better, I don't really know condolence forms either and I don't want to be wrong and say something inappropriate for such moments. I'm sorry.

I am not sensitive about it, Dan. There is no real condolence form as there used to be. He was just taken too soon and out of order, so to speak. You are never inappropriate, as I know your heart, so do not worry about that.

When I say it is not about the money, I just mean that if it weren't for the fact of tying loose ends for him, sorting his life, putting it all to rest, I would turn my back and walk away. His estate is a nightmare, and unfortunately, there was too much involved to do that. But, I feel like I am getting to the home stretch on it. Thank you, I know it has been rough on you also.

I guess only you could have solved the complicated situation, that's what I think.

The others don't feel like they can do it properly, but, the truth is, some people just don't have it in them to see things like this through. Sometimes, it can be years of paperwork.

Good luck with yours. I hope it will get smoother as time goes on. I can see it is getting late for you! I hope you finished your post and bed is only a dream away. :)
