It was 5 months apart that Grum & Aunt Ann died. Wake and funeral went fine. Unexpected car expense while I was up there (front tirod!) but at least it was caught before it totally broke and I got in an accident

So YOU'RE the reason why there's Christmas creep! *waggles finger* Gosh, I don't even know how you know what to buy -- I have a hard enough time trying to get people to give me wishlists anytime before Black Friday.
There's never enough Legos... and unfortunately never enough money to "buy all the LEGOS!" (Which is really what would be very fun... the things we could build! ah!)
What isn't written above is Aunt Isabelle, Ann's twin, died the 28th. So in less than 6 months my grandfather has lost his wife of 55 years and both his younger sisters. Me being heartbroken for him isn't helpful for getting back on solid footing for my own grieving over Grum, but I can't help it. The people trying to be funny telling me to smile while I'm working are getting nasty direct words from me recently. I'm not not smiling because of the grief when I have it said to me (I'm focused on the task at hand!) but being told to smile is demeaning especially when you're grieving. Tell me a joke, dance like a fool.... do something worth me smiling... don't say it like you would command a dog to sit.
