Me at my lawyer's office this morning about an hour ago |
Just got back from my lawyer's office in Rehoboth Beach.
Yesterday I received the documents for new power of attorney, medical directives and wills for both me and Bill through e-mail.
Man, life is complicated especially when one if preparing to leave life.
Since Bill and I are officially married now I felt it was time to update all of our legal documents for end of life.

I had a number of changes to make to the first draft of the documents. I had to put my former boss and long time friend Dave S. as executor of both of our wills. Dave is in the business of settling estates and executorships. In my Previous Life I used to work as operations manager for Dave in the bank trust department. Yes folks, I had a life before hotel front desk clerk life. Dave is good at what he does but I was concerned that since his practice is in Pennsylvania he would not be able to be the executor of our estates. Dave said he could but he would have to do it as an individual. Thank you Dave. That takes a load off of my mind.

I also had to add the two newest babies to my beneficiaries. My grandnieces are having babies. Wow, what does that make me. Old.
I was so hesitant to drive down to my lawyer's office in Rehoboth Beach because of the heaving summertime traffic. But I decided appearing in person was the most efficient way to show the changes I wanted to our legal documents. And yes, the traffic was heavy. Very heavy.
But we got the changes in and just returned home. Hopefully this is the last draft of our documents and we can sign them and put them away until we depart this earth that seems in so much turmoil today.
