Today is the 14th anniversary of my dad’s death, and the 42d anniversary of Whyisa’s dad’s death.
xshub and I are going to be driving up to northern NJ this coming Saturday to attend the funeral of the mom of a good friend of mine. She died at age 96. It’s going to be a quick round trip [8 hours total drive] because Friday is xshub’s bday and Sunday is our Christmas party.
Always a tough day for me...even after all these years. I know it is for you as well.
Sorry.
This is my first Christmas as an orphan. My sisters won’t be coming down to visit my mom, so I don’t know when I will see them.
RIP to your loved ones.
Have safe travels, and take some time to enjoy the trip.
