Goodbye, March '09.....

Well. It's been quite a month. The story so far....
I decided to aux. pioneer for the first time in March. But I was derailed two weeks in by suddenly needing oral surgery. (I feel the need to complain now....: both wisdom teeth were cut out, with no epinephrine so it took longer to heal, and I looked like a chipmunk for days.)

After that nightmare, I managed to get back out in service (and try to get my time in), and then my grandmother was admitted to the hospital twice in one week. It was hard to tell how she would do, since there were good days and bad days, but she was pretty bad by the time I got here on Tuesday. She died last night, and thankfully it was expected by then and a lot of family and friends were able to be there. I spent all day in the hospital with family, waiting, and calling people to tell them what was going on.

Let's just say... not the best week of my life so far.

So now there are funeral arrangements, the family divvying up Nan's jewelry, keeping Pa company, trying to find photos for the viewing.

I'm so tired now in so many different ways. Wired and sleepy and hungry, at once.
I'm going home tonight, to sleep in my own bed. That'll help, anyway.

Hope you all are well, and that you had a better month. :)
