Money makes the world go round
Jun. 4th, 2014 09:20 pmAbout two months after dad died I received a phone call from one of my aunts, letting me know he had had a life insurance policy. The only reason we were told was because one of the aunts had tried to claim it, but wasn't listed on it. My sister, mom, and I were. So since December we've been fighting with this company trying to get this straightened out.
Finally, the check came the other day. But only one, and with just my name on it. So we don't know if my sister is going to get a check as well, or what the hell is going on. My mom, apparently, isn't getting anything, even though she was listed, because my parents were divorced, which is beyond complete and utter bullshit, but that's a rant for another day. My brother wasn't listed because my dad got the policy before he was born and never changed it. The plan now is to just divide the money 4 ways.
It's not a lot of money, a pretty small amount, actually, but it will help all of us, if they company actually does it right and sends us the right amount. So tomorrow I have to call them up and see if they're sending a second check to my sister. I am so tired of this. Why can't it be simple?
Not much going on. I'm supposed to be starting a new position at work, but have been in limbo for the past two weeks while they figure out what they're doing. Very frustrating.
I think I just need a very long vacation.
