Where there's a will...

I have a confession - we don't have a will.  We've spent a lot of this weekend trying to prepare for getting one done.  Asking ourselves all sorts of difficult questions like:

1. Who would look after Charlotte when we're gone?
2. Do we want to be buried or cremated?
3. What are our wishes with respect to medical treatment?
4. Who should we choose as an executor of our estate?

There all sorts of tricky questions - we made good progress - hopefully we can arrange to see a lawyer with the next week or two.

We also phoned our employee assistance providers today to see what kind of things they offered.  Low and behold - Stefan's provides 25% off lawyer fees - talk about good timing!

We also started the sesame street detox program today.  I'm sure I'm not the only mom out there that results to mr. boob tube with a sick child.  Detox involved:

1. A walk to newport village;
2. Baking in the kitchen - I made chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, Superchuck made a lovely concoction of flour, water, toddler puffs - and mushed up chocolate chip oatmeal cookies;
3. Washing up the results of our baking.

We are now just about to sit down to a lovely steak dinner provided by Deb, Donnette, Carmel and Claudine - thanks ladies!
