Well, I slept absolutely horribly. It was really bad. I got up I think around 10am and abandoned the bed to the kitty. I ate around 11am, the neighbor had gone out and had just returned. He had planned to get groceries so I assume that's what he did.
We chatted off and on through the day. I walked to the home improvement to take back items I didn't use for the gate. Only worth three bucks! If I'd known it might not have been worth my trouble. Oh well. I stopped at the grocery on the way back to get two money orders. They are cheaper there than the post office. I got one for the Yard Nazi fees** ($125!) and another to pay my quarterly life insurance premium. There was Gatorade on sale so I got four large bottles for eight dollars. I also noted the frozen food is on sale. Since I was walking, I didn't buy anything else and walked home.
I took the "long way" to look at new houses being build nearby. Holy crap! $650,000 starting price and for that you don't even get a garage for your car! A few houses are probably as wide as the typical two car garage. All of them are two stories but you'd have to be mentally ill to purchase if the outsides are any indication.
The mail brought lots of things from the lawyer including my letter of administration for the estate. Yay me. I also got forms back for the county property tax that I had to sign and will mail tomorrow. There was some other stuff too. Lawyer says would probably need $300,000 to buy Brother's interest and pay estate debts of the house. I need to think about this. It's probably worthless to do if the insurance doesn't pay though. I called Brother to ask if he I should open the estate checking account or wait for him. He said wait. I asked if I should borrow advance money and he said wait. I said should I breathe air. He said wait. He claims he will come over tomorrow so we can "discuss" what we want to do. He didn't seem in a great mood but it was near time for him to leave for work.
