Mom's Funeral in May?

Apr 15, 2023 03:22


I did fall asleep and woke up with my alarm at 7 AM.

Mom's priest friend emailed me back. He's in Europe until the end of the month. He said that he's willing to do the funeral service, although he'll need to send a letter to the Archdiocese of Detroit introducing himself. He's retired, but his last parish was in the Chicago area. So I need to think about what to do. Mom would really like him to do the service. I texted Mom's friend Kate in Vancouver to see what would be better for her. Kate said that May was okay, but earlier May is better.

It's a gray and gloomy day, but it's keeping the house cool. Took a nap. Now the sun has come out. Saturday looks good for a drive. Sunday it's going to rain.

Swept the dining room. How does cat litter get tracked all over the place? Packed the bills that I need to do something on (including my tax forms, which I need to do on Sunday).

Ugh. I have an upset stomach. I will lie down for a half hour only and then get in the shower!

In Lincoln now. I'm taking a break while the refrigerator shelves soak. I'm going over them with cleanser, but want to wipe down the glass shelves with glass cleaner to make them shine after they dry.

I don't think that I'm going to finish tonight. I'd like to have only the kitchen floor and bathroom left when I leave. The down side of driving on Sunday is that it might rain, but it also is supposed to get a lot cooler, which would be good for the cats. I worry about leaving them in a hot car when I stop at a rest stop.

Okay, the refrigerator is clean and the oven is clean. The oven didn't require any elbow grease--let's hear it for oven cleaner. I'm calling it a night.

Mimi was surprisingly subdued when I got home. I expected her to chew me out for being out late. Maybe she was asleep.

Oh! It looks the rain on Sunday will end by the time that I leave! Awesome!
