[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 622418, member: 1963"] I just got off the phone with mum, DDD, and I took your advice and apologized to her for not being a good giftee. We sort of laughed about it and it's settled. I think this is HOW she shows her love. Perhaps it is the easiest for her. We say the words to each other regularly and we mean them, but this is something more tangible. It just shocked me somewhat as she came out of her marriage in terrible financial shape. Dad left a lot of debts with mum's name on them. in my opinion! I hope mum lives long enough to spend her estate and die happy. If not, I hope she leaves the bulk of $$ and things to my younger sister. Her son, my nephew, is getting married in Taiwan. My sister doesn't know it, but if she can get over her flying phobia, her ticket to the wedding is paid. Mum has a credit on file with her travel agency and all sis will have to do is call to book her flight. I'm glad for that. [/QUOTE]
