Thank you.

Life is very complicated currently...little sleep and lots of stress. My wife and I made some major decisions 6 months ago. Some things we knew would happen sometime/someway and others due to increasing age, no children/heirs to continue our businesses, etc. and recent serious medical issues. All our properties except where we live are for sale or sold. Business interests are ending. 2 C3s have been sold in the last couple weeks. A major property sale was completed yesterday. And on and on. My goal is to have all transition completed by spring or early summer. Then I hope to relax & enjoy retirement. We have been very blessed beyond anything we could have dreamed of 50 years when we had our first date. We will still live conservatively by many standards but comfortably. Besides enjoying life my next goal involves ways of “giving back” until and after our final breaths.

Thanks again.

No problem on my end here and I hope all will go well for you in the future.

Often times other members will hi-jack a thread and ask about their problems and it can get a bit confusing when the original thread starter has not come with any response. The member who hi-jacks a thread may not realize that it can make the thread a bit confusing trying to keep everything straight in the responses .

It just makes it harder when people who hi-jack a thread do not start their own thread.
