Yeah busy, kids are getting older, they live full time with me now.
Loads of boring bullshit too, but still doing the damn thing awaiting a knee Op.
Mostly bullshit but not too bad.

It does help (a lot). I didn’t by any stretch think it would be the last time I would see her but I’m definitely glad I was able to see her then.
I’m still in shock. IDK why I’m on a fucking forum on my phone right now but between notifying distant family/friends and crying and thinking about obituaries and services and stuff (that can wait), I don’t know what to do with myself. I can’t go run yet cuz of my foot or I probably would.
Thanks for the condolences.

When my mom passed away I almost had a nervous breakdown and posted about it here. I guess typing it out was comforting in some strange way and we all know each other well enough thay it wasn't like I was talking to strangers.

That.
I feel like I could explode so definitely appreciate/value the room to quietly scream.

Think of something you can do to celebrate the times you shared together, and wish her well on whatever lies ahead of her. Life is eternal, death merely an interlude.

I’d like to think my dad was there for her. She’d probably be kinda happy to leave this place if it meant she could see him again.

There was you and Maggot as well when his mom died and again when his brother died. QB when her husband died. Mock has seen death & births, marriages and divorces.

Please quietly or loudly scream here anytime. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom.

Thank you all. I’m so not ready to deal with everything but my siblings are looking to me to arrange every.damn.thing. From an obituary to a memorial service to the sale of her homes. I’m pushing back some…but gawt damn. They haven’t even given me a chance to breathe.
Fuck.
Screaming!!!

See if you can get to delegate some of those things between your siblings, you deserve some help. Alone, you will only run yourself into oblivion!

What Cars said.
Is there anyone else near you that you trust to help you with these sort of things?
I worked for a small family business and his son died and there were things that I was able to help with. Some say I sholdn't have had to do those sort of things-and I said, I didn't have to do anything, I wanted to. That place was good to me and this was devastating for them.
I hope any one of them step up also.

It would be my privilege to help, but I'm on the other side of the country. Your siblings need to step up NOW and share in the responsibility. You are not an only child. I know I'm preaching to the choir when I say that.

Thanks Cars, Mirah, Duchess.
@Cars, I think my older brother mistakenly believes he can just “delegate” everything to me and I’m not going to let that shit slide. He asked me to put together a list of everything that needs to be done over the next weeks and months (which I kinda happily did because it was swirling in my brain anyway—better to get it out in an email) but I followed that with a text last night saying we’re going to have to divide things up; I’m not going to actually tackle everything myself.
He’s worse than my sister. IDK if it’s some male patriarchy shit he thinks he can pull but I’m not having it.
I am drafting up an obituary tho. My rough draft from yesterday is a hot mess, lol. The brain felt like mush but I’ll pull it together.
RE: The 2025 Trivial Drivel Thread - Duchess - 03-29-2025
A plane has crashed into a house in Minnesota today and yesterday an Air Force jet and a Delta plane nearly collided in DC. Didn't I just ask if this kind of thing was happening with more frequency?
RE: The 2025 Trivial Drivel Thread - username - 03-30-2025
Yesterday was definitely an “angry” day in the grieving process. I went a little ballistic on my irritating brother.
I woke up with less general rage today.
Exhausting.

Are you the executor of the will or is there even one? I know that's the last thing you want to think about right now, but that always seems to be an issuse when siblings are involved.

My brother and I are co-trustees. He’s the asshole and I’m the more sane one (which is why my mom/parents decided to put us in equal positions I suppose).
But yeah, shit is already happening over the trust/estate that pisses me off.
