    I have a pair of prescription glasses but am too scared to use them all the time.

    I lose them on the top of my head and sit on them so I have an extra pair of stupid glasses......

    Sometimes they are better than the 3D kind you get at the theater!

    So here's the latest gossip on the 'home front'?

    Last night called the city to pickup some matress and a couch. They have a great service where you can put large house items on the curb and they send a truck to pick them up, along with the trash on trash day.

    My brother came by to help me carry my items to the curb about dusk.


    When he came in he told me that he saw my other brother and his wife pull up to the house in his truck his wife then got out to look inside the trash cans!

    I was pretty surprised and wondered what would possibly compel them to do so.....

    --------------

    Then this morning, the same brother was sent a text message that my older sister called my younger sis because she wanted to talk to her.

    Mind you, This is the same sister (older) that wanted nothing to do with executing the estate, but now that the hearing is next week she wants to come to the table and talk?

    I wonder if it's money or her conscience that prompted her to call?

    --------------
    Everyone is starting to come out of the woodworks here during the 11th hour.
    I get the feeing that everyone is going to start to cry about what they want from the house and I wish they had a little more sense and not acted like jackholes from the start.


    No matter what happens I am going to be branded the 'bad guy' for doing all that I have done.

    The next week should be interesting.

    Richard, Is any of the contents in the house your dad or moms? If so maybe that is why they are looking? If so maybe they will want to sell it & get more money out of it? It could be part of the estate & probate? Just a thought.

    Maybe they were just checking to see that you didn't throw out something they could sell for a buck or two. At least that's what my 'steps' would have done. GL at the hearing!!!

    It isn't like they have offered to help clean it out - if they did, they'd have the first pick of "treasures" ... everyone knows that!

    RICHARD, you have done EVERYTHING RIGHT here.. (in fact, you're the one who has done everything, period!).

    Let these idiots come and scout out the leavings.. and show up at the hearing..

    Just smile and don't say a thing.

    I really like Helene's idea of you wearing a set of Clown glasses with the big nose and hairdo to the hearing!

    Don't say a word. Just keep smiling.

    http://ZenniOptical.com my friend! Prescription glasses for cheap! As little as $8 if you have a simple* prescription!

    *not like mine! I pay a bit extra because I am so blind and astigmatic as well! But I still got a good set of glasses for $24 total, instead of $400+ which is what I paid before, and that was with coupons and on sale!
