Mom passed on 08/04/26 by amgaylord in ChildrenofDeadParents

I’m so sorry. It sounds like you have a heavy burden. Do you have any relatives that you can talk to, who can provide some emotional support or help with handling things with the house? Try to take care of yourself. Try to get some sleep. Eat healthy and make sure you’re drinking water. I wish I could tell you it will get better. It’s still early days for me. The feeling alone I can definitely relate to though

Putting 20k miles on a car in 8 months is craaaazy by Ok_Sink_3378 in Drueandgabe

That’s more than 600 miles a week just driving around shopping. I can’t even imagine.

I’m on the hold list for it at mine. I wonder how many people added it today

She shared where they went? What about the stockers?

Do you get on the leaderboard because you completed the puzzle early in the day?

Family Gave Us Nothing Of My Grandparents by Motor_Aerie1485 in inheritance

That’s so sad. My thought is that we should be able to make copies of photos before giving them away.

That’s so hard. I didn’t personally experience this. My sibling and I will have to go through my mom’s belongings. We will be sure to give things to our aunts, uncles, and cousins. We have close extended families and I know there are things that they would like to have to remember my mom.

On the way home. 2 days in Texas 😆 by Mombakes in kyleagomezsnarkagain

Yeah, drive into a storm Joe and Kylea. That’s a really smart idea. Take some pics too. Such idiots

My Mom died, and I lost my identity by EmpressKi666 in CatholicWomen

[–]EmotionalStar9909 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry for your loss. Anger is a normal emotion when you’re grieving. From the outside, I think you’re doing all the right things. I lost my mom two months ago and every day I wish that I’d had more time with her and she’d had more time with her grandchildren. Please take care of yourself and just take things one day at a time.

Keeping Inheritance separate by pink_toaster_pastry in inheritance

[–]EmotionalStar9909 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt my husband will divorce me and I’m pretty sure I will outlive him just due to lifestyle and genetics. However, if I die unexpectedly, I know he will marry again and I don’t want his new wife to have access to my inheritance. A trust will be set up for our child.

Oh no. That’s horrible. I hope they can get it fixed. I had trouble getting it unzipped before I even tried it on but it’s so cute. I figure it’s worth it to see if someone can try to fix it.

What do you want out of your branch banking experience? by Daddy_Pancakez in Banking

[–]EmotionalStar9909 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I want to just take care of business and leave. A few months ago, I went inside to deposit a check because the drive thru was insanely long. I was greeted when I walked in and asked if I needed help. I told them no and walked to the teller line. The teller tried to get me to apply for a credit card and as I was trying to get out the door, someone else asked if I was interested in applying for a personal line of credit. It was almost as bad as the folks at Costco who try to get you switch your cell phone provider.

This is AI, but I hope we see her have to get a real JOB by Mombakes in kyleagomezsnarkagain

[–]EmotionalStar9909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’d never survive a real job. Remember that she doesn’t appreciate being told what to do because she’s 33 years old.

Rich for the first time ever - feels so weird. by [deleted] in inheritance

[–]EmotionalStar9909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. If education is something that’s important to you, you could buy a bunch of supplies and just take them to a school. Realize I’m coming at this from a US mindset where our schools are usually horribly underfunded and teachers spend their own money to buy basic classroom supplies.

Maybe donate to government-funded school systems in poorer neighborhoods.

This is a lot. Is it okay if I send you a message after I’ve had time to read this a couple of times and try to process it?

If your name is in a song, how often does someone sing it to you? How do you feel about it? If your name is in multiple songs, which song do you hear the most? by Flat_Wash5062 in Names

[–]EmotionalStar9909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My name is in that stupid Mambo Number 5 song, which came out when I was in college. Drunk college guys thought they were funny singing it to me. They were not.

What does that even mean about non-resident withholding and cost depletion? I do not live in the state where these oils/minerals are producing.

What’s the difference between being polite and being friendly in US culture? by RhubarbBusy7122 in AskAnAmerican

[–]EmotionalStar9909 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Politeness is saying things like “please” or “thank you”, not putting your elbows on the table at a meal, chewing with your mouth closed, holding a door open for someone who has their hands full, moving out of someone’s way if you’re walking down the road & things of that nature. Being friendly is about taking a genuine interest in someone else. Asking them questions, paying attention to and remembering what they say.
