days of wine and hoses
Aug. 9th, 2022 08:09 pmI dropped all the necessary documents off to The Law Talking Guys Monday at noon. Right before I left to get Erica at 2, they dashed off an email to me.
I am not one to put a lot of faith in things when people tell me maybe we can or there is a possibility that. I have put blind faith in these things in the past and suffered too many disappointments. Nowadays, I just roll with it. In the email, Law Guy David said there is chance we can actually end Da Olda Sista's financial guardianship. We had to renew our bond (in which we promised we would not pilfer Mom's $) The effing bond was $281. There was only around $400 in the damn estate at the time!! Even if we wanted to, the bond payment left us a non-pilferable amount. Because our monthly debt is only paying The Unhappiest Place In America and The Law Talking Guys we may be able to end this chapter of the nightmare. Completely pay off the law guysf (or if there is a balance pay it from our own accounts) and have the Social Security checks sent straight to the facility. Close all the bank accounts.
That would mean no arguments with Da Olda Sista. No stress from her constantly freaking out over every minor detail. No more of me having to drive this whole affair. I have always had to be the one to fight or put my foot down. I have carried more than my fair share since beginning the guardianship paperwork (and the goddamn Medicaid...don't get me started) I am tired of having to always be a dick or the bad guy. It would be nice to know everything was automated and this burden was off our shoulders.
But I am not thinking too much about it...especially considering I did not hear from David at all today. Plus I know our family's legendary bad luck. But it was sure be nice....
