I was always Dad’s favorite & little Sister was Mom’s.

When he passed away a couple of years ago, my mother and sister looted his estate (co-executors). What I wound up with fit in a shoebox & is worth about $2 at a garage sale (and old baseball book & a NYY tie).

After being upset over it a long time, I realized IT’S JUST STUFF/money - and let it go.

I had the best Dad - 40 years of awesome memories & wouldn’t trade that for any amount of money or stuff.

Mom & Sis got it all, and are still miserable. (And it drives them nuts that I just don’t care)

Good for you. Attitude and outlook is worth more than stuff.
