Here for you my friend. All the way.
Trying to wrap your head around a property tax that is kind of huge while dealing with grief is too hard.
I hope you have a friend/lawyer/advocate who is there for you to help.
We most certainly are. xxxx
Take a deep breath....and remember that you are doing your very best.
It all seems like a very big mountain right now, but you are going to be OK.
One step at a time. xx ❤️

I left aftercare a month tomorrow and everything has gone to hell since; my mother dying, this issue with the inheritance now. I'm going to be 27 months
sober in two days and never have had to go through anything like this before in my 38 years of life.

Hang in there Reid, this is frustrating because you are in circumstances where there is not that much you can actually do. Ensuring that you have decent solicitors and accountants might actually be helpful in keeping you occupied and focused to a degree (on top of their professional help obviously)
Awesome seeing the Who live there. They looked and sounded better than when I saw them round about late 1981 I think. I remember they stopped performing for a couple of years.
This weekend has gone way too quick. I hope it was a sober one for everyone.

After my blip last week it has been a sober weekend.
Reid, I hope everything works out well but the amount of stress you must be under while dealing with grief sounds immense. Take care
Mesa, that's a great live performance of 'Who Are You'. Full of energy.

Giving up is NOT an option.

Just want to quickly report that things are going fine with my father. It is eerie how much we have in common, considering he didn’t raise me. We’ve been very busy the past 3 days. One more full day of activities tomorrow, and then he leaves to go home to Florida on Tuesday morning. He’s a nice man, and we all get along fine.

I had my appointment with the diabetes nurse at my doctor's practice this morning about my itchy foot. As the antihistamines are largely controlling the itching she thinks it could be caused by an allergy / allergic reaction rather than being a sign of diabetic neuropathy. Strange place to get an allergy but she advised me to continue to take the antihistamines for the next 7 days and she has booked a follow up appointment to see me next Monday. It's a face-to-face appointment as well rather than the telephone appointment I had this morning. I'm glad it's a face to face appointment as I much prefer them to telephone appointments. Trying to describe health problems over the phone isn't my strongest point as I tend to go off at tangents.

I had an updated call with my accountant this morning and things look better on the tax front as things stand now. My mind probably won't be fully at ease
until I know for certain and it's in writing, that's just the way I am I guess, even if there is a 1% chance that things will go bad I will dwell on that.
Happy Birthday Mags too,
