Thank you
@KathrynAnne . I am still feeling rather lost and now I have to start my executor role. It seems daunting so I'm going to make a list and plod through at my own pace. Apart from the bungalow being in a trust and grandchildren being left money in a trust there's nothing I can't do by myself. I'm setting myself a target of having everything ready for the solicitor by the end of February. It shouldn't really take me that long but I find I'm getting emotional if I do too much at once.
My aunt phoned me to see how I am and then told me she loved the funeral and would like something like that for herself when the time comes. So I must have done something right!! She's 87 and always on the go! I used to visit her occasionally when dad was still alive to remind myself that old age isn't always that terrifying!! I'm hoping to see her more now that I have more time, and my cousins.
