So, what's the plan #today?

Finish yesterday's plan, its nice to have a four day weekend.
Well, we did have a few things this morn, needed to hit the bank, and was going to hit breakfast at a Black Bear Diner (if you have one of these in your area and haven't tried it, do so, especially for breakfast), I have a check I forgot to deposit earlier in the week. Woke up a bit lat at 0830, but I had stayed up to around 2330, so that was mostly expectable, albeit I wasn't up much last night, so a little odd. Lets see, what's the temperature...

7°F feels like -5°...
House to car, to restaurant to car to bank... Yeah, too cold for even that, I am so not leaving the house. I swear, since Vik died, the universe doesn't want me going out for breakfast like we used to, last time I tried when I had some time to kill before work, power was out in that part of Bridgeton killing both restaurant choices. I could've gone elsewhere, but that would've given me a choice of Denny's or going out of my way which would've eaten up a chunk of the time I had, so that was out.

So, I guess the check'll get deposited via app, not sure I want to run out tomorrow, but we'll see, I prefer to hand the check over to a teller.

Tomorrow will likely be estate matters, I need to call Farmers, a check arrived a week ago, some kind of refund on what I could swear was a joint account, but its only made out to Vik, so that's a problem. And have to call Fidelity to make some account changes, they gave me his 401K, but my finance planner wanted it an inherited IRA, so gotta get that done, should be relatively simple. Also gotta reach out to e*Trade, somewhere I have the instructions from a few months ago on how to take over his stock shares as I was the beneficiary.
Outside of those, got a lawyer working on the stuff I'm not a beneficiary of, probate court fun of course, hence the lawyer, St Louis County requires a lawyer for all estate filings. Once all that stuff is done, I'm pulling everything out of e*Trade (owned by Morgan Stanley) and Morgan Stanley, not just for consolidation, but because they're owned by Bank of America, who I hate with a passion for various reasons. Once his Apple card is closed, that'll be the last I deal with Goldman Sachs, because they are such a dumb outdated company. Really, they required me to mail paperwork to their legal department showing he'd died, and yet two months later, I'm still get bills as well as 2+ late notices a week. Heck, the account would've been paid off back in August, but they refused, since I'm not on the account, they won't take my money, only his, at least until they accept that he died. Seriously, this is an investment company, or at least how I know the name, can you imagine this company handling your investments? At least they'll be secure, but considering how outdated they are, they're the only company I'm dealing with that doesn't have any way to handle things online, I can't imagine how good their advice could be.
Oh, yesterday I got one step closer to closing the Chase account, which would be nice as technically its a joint account, so my credit is taking a hit from it, but I don't have access officially, though I do have ways to get in there.

Boy, that got long, no?
Any how, things are kinda going, doing what I have to do, keeping on keeping on.
