No Arguments today
I went to my sisters as I normally do on Tuesday and my brother came over to get me to write some checks and brought pizza. He wanted me to pay for his gas and I told him I didn't think it was right and so wouldn't. He also wanted to spend more money on fixing up the houses he was going to inherit but I told him we can't spend money on anything other than paying off mom and dad's bills now that they are both gone. I'm not sure if it is completely right but I know that we can't spend my fathers money on things we want. I have to be responsible with his money as the trustee of his estate.
Besides, my brother has gotten over $200,000 form my parents over the last 15 years. I don't want to spend more of their money on things he will be inheriting. Part of that money will be mine and my sister's once the inheritance is given out. Spending it now on things he will inherit is basically stealing our inheritance form us. If he had not been dependent on them for his whole life and sucking money form them all this time all of us would have more inheritance coming. It is not fair for him to suck away more of it now.
But the main thing is that he didn't argue with me. I think he is starting to understand what he has been doing all his life living off of them and is maybe feeling regrets about it. I'm worried that he will not be able to handle his finances on his own, but I do not intend to help him. And I do not intend to let him take any more form the rest of us. He iw still living off my parent's money now but wants more of it. Once we all get our inheritance then he will be on his own.
I'm feeling good about today tho, I had felt that it might have been stressful before but once it was over and he was gone I felt happy for a little while. I also watched the first two episodes of the newest Doctor Who which I had not gotten a chance to see until now. It was a pretty good day.
It would have been better if I hadn't gotten ten phone calls today, tho.
I hope this feeling will last. It is kinda like it was before all of this started six months ago. My hopes are for it all to be fine once the inheritance is settled and I can once more be only dealing with my own life again. But I do have some worries over what my status will be where I am living now with the new influx of property and money. I like it here a lot and I hope I will not be forced to move.
