Sunday, Sunday...
Gosh Sara, I would be pissed off too to have the neighbors wake ya up in the middle of the night. Nothing much going on around here today. I'm PMSing and have a headache so we've just hung around the house. Kylie has been tap dancing all over my last nerve all day. LOL!
Yesterday went well. Nice, quiet, fast burial service. Went back to g-ma & aunt's house to eat. Haven't seen my uncle or cousins in ages. My fave cousin who is like a sister to me lives 4 hours away in NC now & I haven't seen her since Christmas. So while the kids were playing, we relaxed, caught up with each other and ate pies, cakes, and goodies that friends and family had brought by until we made ourselves miserable. LOL! I think the hardest part of the whole ordeal was waiting on the hearse to bring my granny 'home'. Our family cemetary is on my g-pa & g-ma's 25 acre property at the end of a little gravel road back in the country. We all decided to get to the house early and all go together. Car after car came up the road and the uncles all got tired of looking out the windows to see who it was. I was standing in the bedroom that adjoins the living room and saw the funeral home's van, followed by the hearse. I said "hey guys, she's home" and we all stood & watched them pass by the house. Me & my aunt were standing with arms around each other & I just started bawling. It passed so slowly, I could hear in the back of my mind music playing and it just seemed so poetic. I honestly don't know how to describe it. Almost bittersweet, ya know? But now that its over, we're all dealing & doing well. We laugh & cry at memories but we know she's where she wanted to be.
On another note, I think I'm going to let HR know that I want to be considered for the job with Stephanie in the Internet Banking/ATM department. It is just her and whoever they decide on in the dept. She reports to BB too so I wouldn't be completely away from her but I think a change of scenery is in order. I'm getting burnout in our dept.
Guess I'll call it a night & prepare for the Monday blues tomorrow! ;)
