You could always assign the room to the dragons.
I started on the Codicil to my Will today. Well, not started, actually, because I had started it several years ago, but since my two children are, erm, “competitive,” I figure to avoid the bitterness and hurt that was present after both my parents’ deaths, I want things to be spelled out.
So I got a couple of paragraphs done, which basically includes the disposition of my books, paintings and shawls. I still have to decide what to do with the kitchenware, but I’m leaning towards grandkids for that. No fights. Of course, I could split the dishes and flatware down the middle... and I may do that. The Blue Willow design is what the kids knew when they were growing up, so why not?
Anyway, it’s kinda fun to think about what they would like to have of mine. Something productive...
Much better to have it laid out in advance, even if they end up doing trades.
My brother and I, fortunately, are not competitive.
