Day Three....yippee! :-)

Today was a work day except I woke up with a post red wine headache/migraine that would not go away...even with the good drugs I took. We stopped by a few banks to switch around some funds and to pick up his mom's death certificates that we need for tomorrow morning's meeting with our estate lawyer. We then headed over to Doug's moms to dive into the 30+ years of stuff. Our goal was to go through as much stuff as possible and divide up what was to be kept and what was yard sale stuff. The only roadblock was that there is a person in his mom's will that gets first dibs at the "houselhold furnishings" (long story) so I couldn't really just start moving things around and make decisions other than things I found that I knew were Doug's or family things. I did manage to find some pretty cool things like Doug's marine picture from when I was like 6 and some great old pictures of his grandparents and him when he was very young. All in all we spent about 6 hours there and even though we went through alot, there was no where for it to go AND it doesn't look like we even made a dent. I'm starting to think we should have rented that Uhaul and drove here. Doug's sister was a blessing and met us at his moms and took Jack, Ryan, and Ali to the animal park and then back to our hotel to swim. We kept AJ to be our muscle man. :-) We also had a locksmith out to the house to change the locks and tomorrow we are meeting ADT at the house to put in a security system and then meet our lawyer downtown. Again, Doug's sis is meeting us to take the kids to the zoo.....amazing! Right now Doug is golfing with a friend and we are awaiting our pizza delivery. What an exhausting day but thank goodness my headache has finally left the building!
