Need to clone again....

So, how do I go about guarding a store and its contents when everyone knows the owner has died...and there's only myself and my brother, and he has to come back to California, can't neglect his own life any longer and still have a business left. I may have to fly over again and just be a 'body in the store' with the lights on, then tag-team with him a week at a time. Looking into sending an unemployed friend over there now - still would be expensive, but at least we could both catch up on our 'real lives' while we wait interminably for the state to get the dang death certificates to us. Can't do a blamed thing without them.

My brother emptied one of the shipping containers in the back (a story in itself - my dad sold fireplaces and woodstoves - lots and lots of pipe...), and then loaded the more valuable stuff into it with cut-proof locks, plus we had a security system installed. Here's hoping there's still something left by the time the state lets us deal with it.

I begin to understand how these things can take years to completely resolve, if this is considered a relatively simple one. Flying back and forth from Hawaii may become my hobby this summer. 0.o

I hope that things get worked out soon. The state/government can be so slow at times.

Oh, ((((Prim)))). This sounds so stressful and you already do so much. I hope that you don't have to do too much flying.

And I thought cleaning out my Mom's apartment (where she lived 36 years) was bad! Fortunately my brother has been making weekly trips between Florida and Virginia to check in on Mom...

I wish you and your brother the best in sorting all this out :( {{{{Primsong}}}}}
