Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

And now Jacqueline. It’s not fair.

This is where I’ve been stuck. For weeks. It’s not fucking FAIR. I feel like a little kid stomping my feet in a tantrum, wailing about how it’s just not fair.

Also, urn math is beyond me. I can’t figure volumes.

Apparently, that’s what I can be good for. So feel free to query me or other mathys.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Nice allusion, shrift

If it helps, 8 cups=4 pints=2 qts= half gallon. Approx 2 liters.

I love the box reuse and luggage tags Beverly!

I am so boring with my plain old plot in an ordinary cemetery. It’s nice to lie down on it occasionally, though.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I am glad to think of JZ haunting the house: The smell of ink, and a tiny chill the hair on my neck.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I am also stuck on the unfairness of it all.

I love the idea of Jacqueline's urn sitting on that desk. It's just so perfectly her. And the desk story definitely hits differently reading it again now.

ltc is packed and ready to go for the first day of 2nd grade tomorrow. Hopefully she'll get enough sleep tonight.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I am so boring with my plain old plot in an ordinary cemetery. It’s nice to lie down on it occasionally, though.

I've found a list of local-ish places that do green burials. I need to actually call them and set up a tour and ask about pricing and suchlike, but at least it's the beginnings of a plan.

Javachik, neither do I! I had a teeny baby a second ago!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Susan, my father-in-law is in the one in Langley. Nice spot, but I would anticipate they would be out of room before all that much longer.

If it helps, 8 cups=4 pints=2 qts= half gallon. Approx 2 liters.

So basically, it just needs to be able to hold a large bottle of Coke.
