I am utterly besotted. Caroline Shaw, composer of the astonishing.



A week ago, we discussed Wills, as one does. We'd delayed making one because we didn't have any property. When we got House, the best information we could find was that it would simply go from one of us to the other. Then, last week, we remembered. We did have Wills, set up by the Army in the run up to GWI, which would have left everything to our parents, then oldest sibling. Oh, crap.

So, more research. My HR benefits include free online Will creation. Filled in the forms, downloaded and printed them out, then searched around for a notary and witnesses. Our Credit Union normally would do this, but their lobby was closed. We walked over to their drive through window, explained what we wanted. The manager thought for a moment, then let us in, keeping proper distances, and we got everything all signed and official. We brought our own pens, because of course we did.

Basically, once both of us are gone, Dylan's smartest brother is executor and gets the lot, then his children if he's gone. If it comes to that, one of us is gone, the one left can send him suggestions for our friends. This brother has friends all over that he keeps touch with, so he'll understand. We trust his generosity. If we both live a very long time, we can change things later. Taking care of House and Cats in case of, is important. Other than that, once we're both gone, I don't much care.

Although, I do like to think that a bunch of people will get great deals and a lot of amusement finding treasures from the estate sale, just as we have enjoyed finding cool stuff at other people's.
