This has been a long long long day.
I stayed over at the ancestral homestead since we were leaving in the middle of the night, and dozed on Dad's recliner.
We got to the airport crazy early - it took a lot less time for us to find parking and get to the terminal than estimated, so we were in line before the Southwest airport workers were even on duty. Whee!
Our flights were largely uneventful, but I had a helluva headache by the time we landed in Long Island.
Oof.

Now we're sitting around the hotel waiting for our dinner delivery.
We have a graveside service tomorrow afternoon at a National Cemetery. The last living sibling of Aunt Irma's generation, her sister Aida, who must be 91 or so, will be there, having been released from the hospital for the occasion.

I am quite exhausted now, and Mom has declared that I can stop being "in charge" and relax. So of course I've plugged into the wireless and am reading fanfiction. Fun times.

Any minute now, our dinner will arrive. Foooood. I can't wait.

Looking forward to seeing (and meeting) family tomorrow.
