Michael and I are power of attorney for a number of people and I am certainly learning the hard way that it is important to get your documents organized. I am trying to help with some one's affairs and must admit it is hard when I don't know where to find the appropriate documents. I am sure that the person involved once knew but once several strokes take over knowledge about these things is lost.
My plan is to have things organized before Christmas. I plan to live for many years: going to exercise, do crosswords, play my instruments: all the things that help keep a person mentally and physically healthy. However, if something should happen I do not want someone to have to search for the documents and records that they need to make things happen and clear up my affairs. It is interesting that we think that we are well organized but I must admit that things are not even ready here and I am known by some people as a well organized person. Wow, how bad is it for others. Don't ask I already know!
Now, you have some idea why I have not been on the blog for a couple days. Many documents to look for.
Time to practise my bassoon and then start getting some more papers organized. This is a lessona and probably an exercise to help remind what things I need to do.
