mmm

Morno!

sup?

Snuggled in at work, noodling around. Got the email sorted out, look at what's next. You

?

sorry, was about

have achieved late breakfast

That's not nothing.

There we go.

Okay. Friend and her brother came in like one or two in the morning. Finally got twenty minutes of sleep, then got woke up by the hospital. B died at like 2:30 in the morning. My friend came back at four, slept till 9. She's making arrangements with the funeral home about 2 hours away where B where used to live

I'm good. I'm glad that B didn't die on Christmas Eve or Day. Her grandkids don't need that association more than it has.

true

🫂 back

thank you though

May she rest peacefully and in love.

Thanks, Shady. My friend is not really hurting, shes doing her duty. My friend's brother seems almost relieved his mother isn't suffering anymore

As long as everyone is ok with accepteding that It IS OK TO FEEL THAT WAY.

Yeah

We shall see. there is a chance that some of the older folks in B's community are not going to approve of delay.

Which may get a large middle finger as I can tell you now both B's son and daughter are thinking Dec 27 at soonest

It is very difficult to schedule things around the holidays

that is FINE

A week is NORMAL

If my friend had her way it would be like Mid January

old farts

Right now, My friend is more 'my nephews do not need to associate Christmas with death'

Your friend is 1000% correct.

I agree

She is far more concerned with the younger generation than B's peers, though she has no malice towards the latter

ANd again, B's peers can get bent

One would hope adults would put the youngster's needs ahead of their own.

B had one friend who was better than she deserved, forgive me for saying so. I think she'll understand. A decent woman

Maybe she can run interference with the others. Bring a damn cassarole and shut your mouths for the kid's sake.

Well, the real problem maybe cousins. They may want a say in Aunt B's funeral

To which my friend doesn't want to offend, but it's not their call

Correct

It's HER mom

Okay. Guests here.

God bless.

Good god nieces

they're going with their mom on an hour and a half trip to the funeral home just to support

good kids, yes

Okay. Crowds fading. House at peace.

Bless.
