In a schadenfreude-y sort of way.
I spotted some news and it seems Royal Caribbean is the one running a nine-month around-the-world cruise.

Timelies all!
Mr. S is “watching” movies on Netflix, which seems to be as much fast-forwarding as watching. Ah, the ADHD brain…

ltc moves from show to show on her Netflix list, watching the five second previews without picking a show, for what feels like hours until I say "Pick a show or don't get a show."

I skipped. But Grandma Edith passed away. I didn't post on FB because all family hasn't been told.
I would say it's unfair but she was 101. I have both my parents and my last grandparent lived to 101. So I was blessed.

It's lucky indeed that she was a part of your life for so long, askye, and I'm sorry that she's gone now.

Thank you. At one point my uncle and aunt were talking about how even though they knew this was going to happen and were prepared it still was unexpected in ways.
And I ended up saying "It's always sudden." And someone agreed.
My dad wasn't there. We had gone fishing (and actually got a call while fishing that she was slipping away) and originally wasn't going to come because he was tired. Once I realized it was really the end I called him and he came but then she slipped away before he got there.
There will be a grave side service either Wed or Thurday with immediate family & direct descendants & families. And ex wives if you include my mom and an aunt...who I don't consider an ex aunt.
And then a celebration of life later with everyone.
I brought 2 dresses down, a colorful sundress that I love and get compliments on and a black dress that is ok. I think I'm going to wear the colorful dress. I don't know if I'll be the only one in color. There is a necklace that Grandma bought when we were on our Tour of UK. My aunt gave it to me tonight and I went to put it on and the clasp broke off. I wanted to wear it and I'm still going to see if I can.
I called work this afternoon to give them a heads up. The HR manager took me off the schedule for this week. I'm going to call tomorrow and let them know and say if I can keep the rest of the week and be back Sunday.
