Howdy Lodge. Happy Monday. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Finally, it seems. Here working from my mom's. I've been here the past 17 days while my brother flew back to LA for his "farewell tour." He's flying back overnight tonight, picking him up at the airport and bringing him back here. Thankfully. I am fortunate that I work for a company that allows me the opportunity to do this, end even though I told hem I wouldn't be in, I did manage to make it to the office more days than I imagined.

My older brother tries to help, but he doesn't do enough. My younger brother has been doing his fair share (he moved back in early April) but still...I brought my mom's old computer to Best Buy yesterday for help in getting some documents off of it before we recycle it. I found the title to my mom's car and the instructions of what he will need to do to get it in his name. Yesterday he texted me asking me if I did the bill of sale. I almost said - are you unable to use Google? I googled Bill of Sale, found a template, created one and emailed to him. I asked him if he could print it before he flies home so my mom can sign it and the title. I guess sometimes it's just easier to do stuff than push back. With all due respect to the men here...men!!

I feel this. I have a brother and sister in law who like to involve themselves. I am the responsible party but they intercede and I find out later they have done things or asked for things to be done that require my involvement. I find out when people expect me to do things. They are so involved the NH has contacted them re a careplan meeting and never contacted me (the HCP). The Social Worker has commented on the secondary gains mum les is getting from complaining and telling them things aren't being handled. I have tried to convey this but I am unfeeling for not engaging in the BS and drama. Verify, don't trust is a rule you shouldn't breech but something they don't like to deal with.

Best think I ever did was get the NOK Box (Next of Kin)- its a system to organize affairs. It took quite a bit to get it done but it has been a life saver for so many situations. we now have one for my auntie, my FIL who died, and mum les (bro les has that one now- I handed it over and said have fun). Got one for us as well. GIves you folders to store everything, papers to tell you what needs to be done for every folder and a checklist that says who is handling what.

FUn has continued in the sh1tshow of life. Still dealing with the sewage backup in auntie's cellar, the mess with her having a debit card and being unable to deal with money- escalating daily, the stove fire remediation, appt for mum les, appts for auntie. I am ready to run away.

Happy Day Lodge!
 
Today was not the beach day it should’ve been. Sunny, dry, low 80s. Too bad the wind was, like, 40 mph! Blew sand everywhere.
