That's not an easy task at the best of times {{{hugs}}} but that hurts!

Thinking of you.

It's tough, but trust me the "favourite" doesn't always get it easy either. My mother swapped favourites like the weather, I got the short straw, everything was left to me, such as it was. Of course there was no way I would cut my brother out like she wanted me to, she'd caused so many rifts through the years.

It's an awful job, tying up the remains of a lifetime. It all comes down in the end to a sad little stack of paperwork... sending you positivity and light in your dark task. 💕

My dad performed that task for the family when his mum died and found out where the money was going.

Thinking back to watching him go through old cheque books... It was fortunate my mum and dad got the house when she died. The siblings got cash sooner.

Only one sibling left now but after all this time it's passed.

My brother is The Golden Child. I’d forget his name except it’s the same as my dads.
