I'm the kind of person that when you ask me if I want the good news or the bad news first, I choose the bad news to get it over with. So, in keeping with that philosophy, I'll update on a bad thing first as I try to catch up on my random thoughts.
About two weeks ago Annie's mother's maternal grandmother passed away. It was a bit of a shock. The family was very distraught, and to further depress the family, everyone knew that the paternal grandmother was also dying. She passed away a few days later. Two great-grandmothers in less than a week. It was a very emotional time, and Annie went to stay with the family for several days. After the funerals, Nana asked if I would join them on a Mother and Mother Memorial Ride. I decided that I could work over the weekend to catch up on whatever I've let slip from work, and I agreed to go. I spent pretty much the entire day on the motorcycle, and we had a great time with some much needed laughter and fun.
Still a bit melancholy...
