Estate

Both my parents passed away last year, and now my siblings and I are in a big fight. I thought that once there wasn't anybody to compete for attention some of this craziness would go away. I was wrong. My brother is executor of the estate, and he refuses to move forward. He has made many glaring errors in his handling of things so far, and when he has been called on it he has told the rest of us how stupid we are. I found a bag of trash in front of the house before Christmas, and called him to tell him there were unpaid bills in the garbage with account numbers and large open balances. he sent me a nasty eamil that told me he wasn't born yesterday, and I didn't know what I was talking about. I'm a college professor, but Iguess in his eyes I'm too stupid to recognize a credit card bill. I made copies of all the bills and sent them to the family attorney who was shocked. My brother told him the bills didn't exist, and then swore that he had paid them in full. Not true. Oh well, I could go on for hours. I'm sitting at work getting ready to grade papers. My students are freaking out because they don't understand what to do. They get caught up in the wording, and don't realize how simple their task is. I try to break it down for them, but at some point they will have to realize they are in college now, and they are going to have to learn big words. They are for the most part a good group, some of the girls need to get out of the high school mindset, i guess it will take a while. All of now.
Peace
