Personal rant time

Okay so mom died in 2021. We did the stuff we're supposed to do but conflicting info kept coming from the professionals and like everytime we turned around everything was harder and more complicated then was said or should've been.

For some reason, the house and her small amount in her bank acct, not her rrsps which my sis and I had already had transferred to us thank god bc that paid for her $10,000!!!! Taxes jfc. Had to go into probate. Luckily all her funeral arrangements had already been preplanned and prepaid and the lawyers said not to worry bc all their end had too Ha. Spoiler

So in April 2022 my last contact with law office was that it could be up to two years bc of back logs in court. Which yikes but fair. Fast forward to feb 2023 and my sis is impatient bc she wants the money from me buying her out of the house (which I've lived in since mom had gone into long term care in 2017) which I get it she wants her own place and with the inheritance and my half she'd have a nice chunk for a down payment.

Turns out they never started probate. 🥰🥲 so she lights a fire under them and suddenly it's rush rush rush. And then we get hit with a 6300$ bill. Lol. 5k to them and 1300 to the courts to process. Now in theory, I should've been able to access moms estate account, which shockingly juuuuuust had enough in it after LTC refund and a refund for a wheelchair. But for whatever reason couldn't. So I paid out of my own cash the 1300 and was liek yeah waiting until it's cleared then y'all can have your money. Which like...: you should give a discount?? Or even an apology. When I went in to sign paperwork and was like hey yeah so why didn't this happen last year the lawyer literally leaned back in his chair and threw his hands up and shrugged. Sir that is not a valid response. Christ.

Anyways. It's done. They're paid. Your girl owns half a house with her sister and currently trying to get a mortgage set up bc my bank won't give me one despite excellent credit, a 14,000$ down payment for a 70,000 mortgage. According to their stress test I couldn't afford the (at max end) 850 a month payments. Do they not realize a one bedroom in my town is now averaging 1300$ a month? Plus utilities Lol. Anyways.

So roomie and I are going to his bank and trying to set up through them. He'll be put down on the deed as well to help him out, but yeah. Trust me wasn't an easy decision bc this could come back to bite me in the ass, but ten plus years living together and a shit ton of trauma and shit I think we'll okay. He's ready to even sign documents saying if we do "break up" that he wants no part of the house bc it's mine. I literally helped my dad build it when I was 9. "Helped" haha. But I told him if he does help pay then at some point going forward he can build a garage and that sold him. Now to get rid of all the crap in here OMg. Please send good vibes going forward please.

If you use or have used a wheelchair and are or have been in college please respond,,, I am moving into a dorm in September and I don’t know if it’s wheelchair accessible??? So did you notice non-accessible dorms having doors big enough to fit wheelchairs?

I don’t need a bar in the bathroom or anything I just need the doors to be big enough to fit a wheelchair. I didn’t get the accessible housing bc I felt like I didn’t need it and now I’m panicking because I thought I wouldn’t need it cuz I’d be fine with regular dorms…if the doors are big enough to fit a wheelchair. And now I’m not sure if they are.

I know it’s probably college-specific but still, I’d just like to hear others experiences! So maybe I can calm down about it. Bc I am panicking. I think I’d have to wait at least a semester just to get on the waiting list for accessible dorms…how am I going to wait a semester if I can’t get my chair in the dorm 🥲
