The first day of the rest of my life

Published January 8, 2006

Reading time: 1 minutes.

I didn’t get to sleep until four this morning, and that’s just guessing. They came and took Mom away and then we just all sat around talking for quite some time before the tiredness took over. It took me quite a while to fall asleep and I didn’t wake up until Ana came downstairs at about 8:00 this morning.

Ana took the news well, having been previously prepared for this by me, my dad, and my aunt. We just told her that her grandmother went to Heaven last night.

Today was very hard for me as I made various phone calls and spent the day helping out around the house. We cleaned up some stuff for Dad and we went through a lot of pictures. We’ll be putting some of those online on this site in the next few days.

More to follow.
