Well, I survived the 29th. When I really think about the fact that dad isn't in this world I feel strange, kind of dizzy-like. I guess some things are so hard to fathom. *sigh*
Today, I fought with amazon.com because they double billed me and caused my acct. to be overdrawn. There's nothing like trying to explain to Shantini in India what the problem is. Ack, so I switched gears made a couple of email & will wait for them to get around to it. Frustrating.
To distract myself I went along with Madelyn's idea of making a Star of India (wasn't really in the mood after talking to Shantini). But it was nice and creative even though it took a couple of hours and didn't work on our lamp. So we taped it into a 6-point star and hung it over her bed. Of course Tess had to have one, too. She looked up from cutting her 6th piece of paper into teeny tiny pieces that were spread all around her on the floor like confetti and begged for one. LOL
So I guess the girls rescued me from a potential funk. I'll have to remember that next time I seem hell bent on only seeing the negative.
