The 2025 Trivial Drivel Thread

Taking y’all on my wild ride with my mom’s trust and siblings (whether u like it or not).

Actually, it's been funny & interesting watching this dynamic play out.  

My MIL, my aunt and my mom all passed away in the last two years and I’m still finalizing my aunt’s trust/estate (as trustee/executor) and now co-managing my mom’s. My husband is handling his mom’s estate and also has been involved in my mom’s and aunt’s because he was the financial advisor to them both.

It’s emotionally grueling and hard work. The only (tiny) bright spot is it’s unlikely we’ll ever have to be trustees or executors again. It’s like when you’re young you get sucked into participating in weddings and baby showers and stuff that become exhausting and now I’m exhausted dealing with people dying, lol. 

But yes, some of the stupidity/drama makes me laugh.
