Man, I haven’t even mentioned the car.
There my husband died 4/9/13. The funeral people tell me I must go to the dept of wills and such. But I must wait 30 days.
Now I don’t know why I must wait 30 days to get some piece of paper that will allow me to title the vehicle to my daughter, who was driving around in a piece of crap. It was a car over ten years old, paid for the day he bought it. Billy made sure I knew where the title was before he died. He wanted me to give it to Melissa.
Why couldn’t I title this car to my daughter on, say, 4/10? What was the gubmint doing telling me I must wait...no WAIT! the funeral people said 30 days but the will people said...too bad Ms. Fish, you are a day early, you must wait until TOMORROW, cannot retitle until THIRTY ONE days after death!
Why?
Nobody at the Czar of wills and shit knew the answer. I did a big write up on it and, of course, the head of the dept of wills is my Words With Pals friend and one staff member is in my choir.
I carried on bejeesus....WHY CAN’T I GIVE MY DEAD HUSBAND’S CAR TO MY DAUGHTER? WHY MUST I WAIT THIRTY ONE DAYS?
A lot of investigating and my choir member, who admires me greatly God love her, finds the answer.
It’s to appease the creditors. In other words, had my husband a car with some sort of lien on it, the 31 days gives that creditor time to file for their part of the dead person’s car.
Or something like that.
AND NONE OF THE BUREAUCRATS KNEW THE REASON! Only me, intrepid citizen reporter, got to the bottom of it.
Silly laws and silly rules control us all, folks.
and this Common Core....this is my NEXT mission.
This is Communism pure and simple.
I’m on it.
If you are going to tackle “Common Core” pleae keep us apprised! This is a national issue and spells doom for the schools.
YOU GO GIRL!
You are my mentor...if I wasn’t still working I would be at the local yokels every week to “cause trouble”.
BTW, the picture of you in the paper..you look MAAAHH-VELOUS!
“Its all about how you look, not who you are...After all, who cares who you are!! “ha.
