Wills

Finally, we have finished writing our wills. Perhaps, dear reader, you’re in them, but you’ll have to wait and see.

It’s a strange experience, thinking about what happens are you wander off the mortal coil. For me, the hardest bits were figuring out the edge cases, such as if we both die, and their godparents are also dead, what happens to Octavia? At the point it’s probably world war 3, so our will probably won’t we worth the paper it’s written on, but we still needed a plan.

What made it a LOT easier was having two trustees of the will that we really trust. No matter what happens, minus global thermonuclear warfare, it feels like things will be ok once we’re gone.
