I have been to two funerals this last week; first Ryan’s grandma’s and then my grandpa’s. It took 9 planes to get from NC to ID, then ID to NC, then NC to IL, then IL to NC. I just got back, and I am exhausted! Many things went wrong during the trip (losing a laptop for one), but it all worked out in the end (we got the computer back!), and I am glad I was able to go to both funerals and visit/console both sides of my family. They sure do bring out opposite sides of my personality.
