Sunday......

I awoke at about 4.30am, my pillow a bag of bricks. Watched the clock, my head full of thoughts. Saw 5.30 and 6.30, must have dropped off and in minutes the alarm went off at 6.55am. Don't you just hate nights like that!

We set off about 11.30 to visit Cags sister P, her husband D, and another younger sister K. An easy journey, plenty of traffic but it kept moving. I had been looking forward to talking with D as he was in a similar situation only a few years ago. He had also recently finished settling the estate of a cousin, acting with a solicitor as joint executor, and guided K through sorting her husbands affairs when he so suddenly passed away, so is well versed in the joys and pitfalls of the whole business.

There was a lot to take in but he's only a phone call away................ and works cheap.......ha, ha! I should be able to get the ball rolling tomorrow, at least doing some of the preparation work. I've been warned about the amount of letters I will have to write, and visits to make, so if my posts are a little small, please forgive.

We left a little later than usual. Nothing to rush home for now. We missed driving into the sunset, but there will be other sunsets. A good day, in good company, and good cake.......... mmmmmmm!
