The day after Dan told me about his grandma, she died. He asked me if I'd go to the funeral with him (which is on Tuesday), obviously, I'd go anyway. She was an absolutely delightful woman, and though I only met her once, she still made an impact.
Her and her husband were married for over 60 years, and received a telegram from the Queen congratulating them on 60 years.
Dan's grandad just celebrated his 90th birthday, so I cannot imagine how this man is feeling right now. I suppose the only thing that can console him is to know that his entire family is thinking of him right now.
At least she got to meet her granddaughter before she died.
My "exercise regime" is going slightly better. I've been at work more, walking more and doing a lot more cycling. However, the weather has taken a turn for the worse so I much prefer sitting inside in front of the fire; stupid climate.
This time last year we were complaining about how hot it was in March, of all months. Now, some places have been closed off because there's so much snow. Currently have the fire on, in spring.
My shift has been cancelled tonight, so I'm going to play on Sims while I complain about how chilly it is in here.
