Canton Chinese
We took Mom to the chinese place last night. Mmm good! When I got to Mom's she was looking at old pictures from her childhood. She was real happy. I thought to myself, "This is part of the process. We just can't rush her to do anything right now. If she wants to look at pictures and that makes her happy, then that's what she should do." We chided her some for the M&M's, cakes, oreos, ice cream and oatmeal cream pies in her house. She also eats those chicken pot pies. :) She doesn't understand why she owes Bill Thackston $1,600. That does seem like a lot of money for what he's doing, whatever that is. Reynolds - do you remember what all he's doing? Mom went to the N. Fulton annex and got Dad's car put into her name. She said it took no time at all. So she certainly doesn't need Bill for anything like that. She called me last night, very excited, to tell me Max has had strep throat and they were all sick with colds, but now that they're all better, the Cantors are taking her out to dinner Sat. night. Knowing Abbey, I bet she remembered yesterday was Dad's birthday. And Sunday Mom's meeting Roose at MVT for lunch. Roose is all for Mom moving up there so maybe she can persuade her.

Kathy, the $1600 was to file Dad's will with the Fulton Co Probate court (Did mom ever take him the original document?) and the part that Mr.Thackston was worried about was the 'notice of Debtors and Creditors' that he was going to publish in the Fulton Daily Report, which is Fulton Counties legal organ (communication & notifications). I think he said that he would need to have this published for a 4 month period and then freeze Dad's assets for another six months. Basically, the payment to Mr. Thackston is to protect Dad & Mom's assets. Mom does not care for Mr. Thackston, but I think she should let him handle the probate process and then let her make a change to another attorney. I recommended Doug Hill (Jane & Judge Hill's son) to her and she said "well he's such a young kid". I told mom that Doug had been practicing law for 26 years.
