Back to work yesterday, though I ended up wishing I had not gone in. (I had planned to take three days' bereavement leave through Saturday, but changed my mind.) Whole new meaning to "dead week" this quarter. I was okay, though it's easy for grief to manifest as anger in the kitchen. Then the first xmas carol of the season I've heard came on, and I heard "through the years we all will be together, if the fates allow" and almost lost it. I bawled in the car on the way home.
I got the kindest card from my co-workers, even the ones who work in other buildings.
Today is day 2 of 9. What fun.
