Sometimes that is the hardest thing to do though.

Once he moves, then I'll have the drive to myself. The old house has a different driveway.

It's REAL hard sometimes. But what can you do?

Yeah. Sometimes all you can do is go out and beat the crap out of something. HOPEFULLY something that can't beat back! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

We actually get along better now than we did. We spent 3 years not speaking after I moved back there. He talked Dad into giving him the whole place, and Mom bucked and told him that I had done all the work and put in a well and septic and I was [censored] sure keeping it. Made it pretty rough for a while.

I have a big dirt pile in my back yard for a backstop. When I get frustrated, I shoot. A lot.

It's not unusual for me to burn 100-200 rounds on a Saturday afternoon.

Good for your mom. Thankfully I don't have that problem. I'm an only child. Guess When I popped out the were afraid to have any more!

They've decided that my brother and I will split the big piece of property, and my sister will get the small piece and house that our parents live in now. It's about 1/4 mile away on a different piece of property.

Good deal, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone didn't buck up against that. Seems to happen WAY to much. Sad thing really. I hope your situation is different.

I know that it's just a matter of time for all of us, but I'd gladly give up my inheritance to keep my folks around. Mom and Dad have both been great to me, especially as I've gotten older and had kids.

I've tried every way I know to get them to make out a will, but Dad thinks just writing down his wishes will be ok. I'm afraid it'll turn out badly too.
