↑This is how I looked Sunday Morning, after my two day battle with the "Blue Genie in the bottle from Bombay"

And what instigated this wasted of time you ask?
I will finally be sworn in as administrator for my brothers estate later this week, which will allow me to pay the debts against his estate, see to it that his ashes are scattered respectfully and close out this months long nightmare I've been living.

I just this morning found even more evidence of that fight. My external Harddrive was on the floor behind my PC: I already knew that there had been a physical altercation Sat night, my bedside table had been strewn across the room, lamp on the floor, my recliner had evidence of something nasty spilled (or perhaps I had a unpleasant blow out while seated)....
I know I was hurting Sunday, I stank to high heaven, and couldn't get a shower until Monday... boy was I rotten.
I'm clean now though, and my week of events is beginning.
Tomorrow I have a VA Dental appointment to get fitted for new Dentures, then I have to see about a car rental to get to Warrenton Ga where my Brother died, get sworn in, go to Thomson and his bank to get that money so I can pay the cremation fee, lawyers fees, court costs and back rent he owed.
Then whatever is left after all that will be distributed between myself and my three siblings that are his heirs (and one nephew)

This morning I woke up very cold, but found His Majesty was nestled up next to my leg asleep! What a joy that was since He doesn't come to my bed much since the Kittens arrived.
Of course when I reached down to stroke His Majesty Prince Tommy, Felix the devil cat roused and set about distrubing this tableau.

They are currently outside enjoying the cool weather, chasing leaves and being mad at me for putting their flea and tick drops on them.

I hope and pray we all have a great week, with safe travels and no more visits from the Blue Genie.
