Just heading out to Mr T to get more Alessi cutlery and to use a £5.00 off £40.00 womble I found in the car park of another store on Monday. Printed some more Reloaded vouchers and some Beanz to make up the price and pay next to nothing.
Need to shop as having a really bad day and been in tears most of it.
I care for my Mum basically full time and my brothers( who do nothing ) and sisters ( who do what suits them) have said that Mum needs another signatory on her building society ( I sign at the mo and she does when she can get to town) so that it is 2 to sign all the time. Dad left a bit of money in B/S and a smallish ISA (about £3000.00). The ISA money went into the budget account and as my brother and sister ( who are Dads executors) did not sort out my Mum's Italian pension ( as Dad was Italian) most of the money has gone on paying her bills. Now my sister is making a fuss about the money and I said ok I will get together the statements so you can all see where it has gone. However when I was on hols im September my brother took all the statements home. So I called him ( I dont usually talk to him as he took most of my parents money already for 3 failed business's and left them with a 50 year interest only £60.000.00 mortgage) and asked for the statements back so I could order any missing ones.
He talked over me as he usually does and said it was not a witchhunt and they would all draw a line in the sand. He always talk like that and then he said that her finances had been mismanaged and they all neeeded to deal with it. So I tried to talk to my other brother \ he also shouted me down, so I came home and wrote them all an email listing all the ways I have saved my parents money in the last 5 years. I.E Council tax benefit, pension credit, atttendance allowance, £100.00 cashback , cheaper insurances and free shopping.
I then told them that if they think they can do a better job then ok but I won't be looking after her anymore.
Very sad as I have put my parents 1st for at least 5 years when my own life is falling apart.
So sorry to ramble off to fleece Mr T now.0 -
