'bout time to be posting again
It has been a very sociable few days.
After starting on the Teresa phone tree Friday, I had folks over for dinner. It was simple: spaghetti, salad, and apple pie a la mode. Calling people with the news felt a little sureal, as I took a couple of days to accept it myself. Dinner was pleasant, but not the fun evening originally envisioned.
Saturday![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
moriven and I did a demo with Paul. Afterwards, Paul and compassstarlady came over for the afternoon to play cards and hang out. We had a reprise of Friday night's dinner (fortunately, spaghetti sauce just gets better).
Sunday we had a nice trip to the farmers' market beforefalzalot and I went up to ysabella_dolfin's house. Ysa draped falzalot for a german dress. Falzalot got a good deal done, with some coaching from stella_nordicaand me. I got four pink! dresses done most of the way for my nieces. I just have the buttons to go!
Today, I worked from home, to wait for yet another oven repair guy. He has to replace the control board, which he won't have in stock for a week and a half. The drama continues. If I don't have an oven soon I might hurt something.
I also went to pick up our framed scrolls. They look so good. We put them up as soon as moriven got home.
We aren't going to the war this weekend, so we can go to the funeral instead. I'm pleased beyond measure that my darling suggested from the first that this was the right way to go. What a good husband I have :) I'll definitely be bringing some flowers and I picked up some of the tiny paper umbrellas, too. It just seemed like the right thing to do. She'd hate for us to be completely glum.
Funeral info, so it doesn't get lost in the posts: http://klwilliams.livejournal.com/12602
I'm off to more sewing.

Too true. I just can't see her wanting us to be so unhappy we can't remember the good stuff. It's just who she was.
