I realize that I have not posted much recently. Perhaps this is partly because I am tired and bummed out by the winter. But there are other reasons as well.As I may already have mentioned, my mother (who just turned 100) has Alzheimer's disease. She is now in the Baycrest facility in Toronto. But since she was originally living in the Province of Quebec, I ended up being in control of her financial affairs.
But this status also results in me having to submit an annual report to the Public Curator's Office.
This report was in fact submitted a year ago, but now it is under audit, which means that now I have to supply them with the following sort of information;
" - a copy of the bank books or the statements for the accounts bearing numbers 04741-xxxxxxx, 04741-xxxxxxy and 04701-xxxxxxz for the period of November 3, 2008 to December 31, 2009;
- a proof of the registration name of these accounts;
- a copy of all the deposit certificates;
- the receipts for the accommodation and boarding expenses paid in the amount of 45 460,00 $;
- the vouchers for the caregivers paid (41 040,00 $);"
I admit that there is an accountant doing some of the work, but this whole business has kept me occupied for the last couple of months.
The photo of me above was one taken in early January by a friend with a disposable camera. I have converted it so that it can be viewed in 3D by any of you who happen to have ChromaDepth 3D glasses.
