Just had a nice long chat with Dad - he's doing pretty well, immersed in getting all the family trust crap sorted out - his brother was the primary trustee, so now all the banks need to see that death certificate, and then they need to see Grandma's death certificate, and add to that, he's using some of the trust money to buy a house down there in Albuquerque, so there's more thick stacks of paper to wade through and wait on bank and bureaucracy to grind their way towards a signature.
But we got off money when I told him he's not allowed to die so that I can get my inheritance, though I wouldn't say no to the odd cash gift. He got the spare 512MB chip from my new iMac, and he's thinking about finally upgrading his piece of crap PC for another iMac (Mom's got one already) He was sort of puzzling over the scarf I sent in the same package, but a little sputtering of 'It's not for you! It's for Mom!' he got the clue that I just wanted to send a nice scarf with turtles to my mommy.
The closing might be a bit delayed, but it's a nice house, and there might even be room for both of my grandfathers, Mom's art and Dad's office. There's a fenced yard, and it's close to walk-space, so they're talking and I'm hoping they'll get a dog soon, too. I'm all for more animal companionship (I say this with a giant lump of fur pressing his forehead into my elbow) and Dad (and Mom) could use an excuse for exercise.
