What Purse?
Sometimes in life we all do things that simply make us shake our heads. Have you ever said to yourself…”What was I thinking”? Well if you are like me you weren’t thinking.
Like the time I gave my wife’s purse to charity with all her identification, credit cards and cash in it.
Harley (our dog) and I were watching the game I was waiting for all week, my day to relax. I had it all planned, no cell phone, snacks just us and the game. The doorbell rang, but my brain didn’t follow me to the door. Harley and I were both in the dog house. It took a lot of effort to sort out the mess I’d made.
We all get distracted and our actions and decisions become knee jerk rather than the usual logical and thoughtful process we normally go through. Most of the time there is no harm done but occasionally it can result in ruining what could have been a great day. Protect yourself from yourself, use Dovetail Organizer and when you have those lapses in judgement feel good knowing that you were prepared. I have.
Aging Parent Suddenly Becomes Ill...
I am the son of a man who is 96 years old. I am so proud of what he and my mother have accomplished. Then just over a year ago he suddenly became very ill and we needed the help of a full long term care facility. My mother knew very little about their finances, what insurance was in place, if their will was up to date, who their lawyer was and if he was even still practicing. We needed to resolve all these issues quickly. I live four hours away from my parents. It took four weeks to find all the documents and resolve all the issues to ensure my father was taken care of and that my mother could carry on without him. Although we knew this day would come it was something that none of us wanted to discuss or deal with. We were not prepared for this. Now we have the dovetail organizer. Everything has been discussed, copies put in secure locations and should something else occur, we are prepared. My mother doesn’t have to worry that this could happen again.
Sober Thoughts At 35,000 Feet...
My wife and I were flying south on our annual two week vacation when it occurred to me that our children had little or no idea where to find our vital information should something happen and this plane goes down. Who is our accountant? Where is the will? What insurance is in place? What investments do we have? How and where do we want to be remembered? Does my son Ben want my beloved fly fishing gear? When we returned, I purchased a copy of dovetail organizer and now we have had those discussions, it was simple, and it turns out he loves my fishing gear as much as I do. Peace of mind makes for a better vacation.
Discovering The Gap In Property Values
In 1974 my wife and I bought our dream home. A place to raise our kids, to enjoy barbeques with our new neighbours, our dog Teddy could run around and not bump into something. We loved it then and we still love it today. Barry, my insurance broker made sure that should a disaster happen we could rebuild. Barry retired in 1996 and I assumed that the new agent would look after making sure that we had the same thoughtful concern that Barry had. I was wrong. My wife purchased dovetail organizer to get my kids up to speed should something unexpected happen to us. (God bless her) While she was putting in the information she realized that although our home was worth five times what we had paid in 1974 our insurance didn’t reflect the increased value. We could have lost the one place that meant the world to us.
Cruising For Trouble
We love cruises. Joan, my wife, talked me into them ten years ago. I was reluctant like most men I guess, but the open sea, ports not yet explored drew me in. Today we love getting away and having our hotel travel with us. Not to mention the food. On our last cruise I was putting my wallet on the table of our balcony just as Joan was coming out. My wallet flew as though in slow motion over the railing and into sea below us. My credit cards, identification, drivers licence, insurance card, all gone! Joan had purchased a copy of dovetail organizer a few weeks before we left and had entered my information. We arrived at the next port, reported the loss and had our documents replaced almost immediately. We had detailed records. Do you know where your information is?
