My previous emphasis for MKE has been on improving my relationship with my husband. He passed away in April, so I am in the process of defining my new life without him. I certainly am able to do that without MKE, but the process is solid, and I believe it will make my journey more productive in the process.
Since April, I have been ensuring his will has been properly executed. At the end of this week, I believe I will have completed those immediate tasks and can plan a more leisurely approach to the rest of the things I need to do to ensure our affairs are in order.
Creating a new DMP is going to help. Also, several aspects that will be coming up in future weeks will help me stay on track with tasks — I have a lot of them.
I’m retired. I’m financially comfortable. I run a small non-profit in our local community. I have a lot of stuff that needs to be rehomed to make my life less cluttered as well as making things easier for my extended family when my time to pass comes around.
The benefits of removing “stuff” that is no longer, umm…needed will be increased flexibility as well as an ability to implement some new things I want to accomplish.
I’m working toward balance in my spiritual, emotional, and physical life. My dream is to complete deferred maintenance on my 1900 Victorian home rendering a solid home for the remainder of my life, travel – possibly to Antarctica, but I have a few other destinations in mind, and build our non-profit animal welfare group to the point it is sustainable after I am gone.
