...learning the ropes and blowing out candles

It's taken me almost two months to sort out our bills...and to pay them. Jack has four different accounts, with money coming out of all of them, depending on if it were business or personal. I have my own account. It was easier to keep it separate, now I'm not so sure. Aside from closing any accounts yet, I think I have a handle on it. So Bill's, I know when you're coming, I know when you're due and I roughly know how much you will want. BRING IT ON!!

That is only one aspect. I still have to deal with name changes, his estate, and to figure out who insured our cars, home etc.. I guess Jack paid annually on those, so I'll wait until the next premium is due. Scarlett O'Hara would do the same thing:)

Today is Andy's birthday. He is married to my sister Pam. The funny thing about that is he has known Jack the longest.  My brother, Greg and Jack, were boy scouts together, one year apart. Jack was afraid to ask me out because of Greg. Andy goes back further...they grew up in the same neighborhood. Although Andy was alot younger, Jack was part of the Gillaspey household. In current time, Jack used to tease Andy about helping him reach the urinal.

If my sister Pam is my rock, Andy is my boulder. He has my back. I know I can speak for Andy when I say, he not only lost a brother-in-law...he lost a brother.
Jack would also want to know if Andy got his birthday spanking yet...that was so Jack, always creating a laugh.
Happy Birthday Andy Boy!! I love you.
