These last 2 weeks have probably been 2 of the worst weeks so far in my life.
The funeral was beautiful. So many people showed up to say goodbye and I've never seen so many flowers. The Franklin VFW came and did the 21 gun salute, which my papaw would have enjoyed. Correction : did enjoy.
After the funeral we all went to the Church and ate. The Church was nice enough to cook a TON of food for the family. Plus so many people sent food and brought food to my grandma's. They've sent flowers and presents and fruit baskets, and brought everything from catered food to home made lasagnas and cookies. You'd think our family would have gained weight, but we've all lost a ton.
The day after the funeral I got the flu. I'm just now coming off of it. I've been so sick for the last few days. A bunch of people in my family have it too. I just hope Josh doesn't get it since we leave for vacation in a few days.
Luckily I've got us mostly packed and ready to go. I've still got some stuff to do to get us ready, but not a lot.
I'm going to write my grandma a postcard everyday that I'm in florida. The other day, when I wasn't there, she was talking to my aunt and my mom and she started crying and said "when I'm sad, I need Nikki." (That's me.) And it broke my heart that I've been sick and not been able to be there. So all day everyday until we leave I'm going to spend time with my grandma.
I've been so scared to eat for the last few days that I've been living off crackers and water. Healthy, I know. But hey, I lost 9 pounds. So it's not all bad.
Gotta get ready and see the grandma..
