Please pass along my thanks for reminders 2, 3, and 4. My will has needed updating for three years now, and I just finally got the ball rolling on that by handing my current will to my MA lawyer at Saturday's housewarming party, and talking with her briefly about it. Not your usual housewarming conversation, but, as Anna preaches, it's important.

I'm also putting the pieces in place for my new emergency contact info, but hadn't remembered the Power of Attorney parts that make everything so much easier (and, in many cases, possible). Anna's reminder helped that one go "click."
