My mom had a grandfather clock I really liked, I told her right out, when she died I wanted her to leave me that clock in her will.
Well, we laughed about it and, she said, "sure " my 2 sisters were there and, heard all of this.
Mom died and, my older sister called a couple of weeks later and told me they were all at mom's house, "dispersing " her things.
My younger sister took the living room furniture and a TV, my niece took the almost new dining room set, my older sister took a bedroom set. All of this was done without me, without even asking me if I wanted anything, without giving me enough notice, so I could be there.
I don't know where the clock is, my sister said she doesn't know either.
