Death

Yesterday was kind of a crazy day. Crazy as in you have your whole day planned and then one thing throws it off and you dont know what to do with yourself. A bunch of friends, their kids and my family planned on going swimming. We get to the pool to find out it is closed and then we are stuck wondering what to do. Should we plan something else, should we just go on with our day. Well we did try to find something else to do for our kids to do but it all just flopped. I had to go to the store and had to prepare for a funeral.

Which brings me to today. In my little town of 500 we had an amazing lady who has been through breast cancer, sickness, and much more die in a car accident. I really dont know how to explain my feelings. She was/is an amazing lady always opening her home and her heart to people. Makes me wonder why good people have to die. Yeah it's the whole circle of life thing but good people should have that chance to live longer.

confession: i havent done laundry in a week and a half and i am dreading it. who would of thought we had so much clothes.

So sorry to hear! :(

All of the more reason to take care of yourself. You never know when it's going to end. Really!

Peace to you.

It's always hard to think you are doing one thing and then have to come up with a filler when that doesn't work out. It's furthermore complicated when you are preoccupied with an upcoming funeral and all the feelings that go along with that. No wonder you had a crazy day.

By the way, I totally hear you on the laundry. I swear that stuff multiplies on its own.

I'm so sorry to hear of your (and your town's) loss! :( How horrible to have fought for your life so many times and to have it just end in an accident.
