Wakes, and weight
If you want to catch up, go two entries back. It will explain some of what is ahead. One entry back? Is me adding a weight loss ticker. I started Weight Watchers a few weeks ago, and I'm gonna try to keep up here, as well as IRL.
I went to the wake tonight. Buck and Storm came, too. It was...weird. They did a LOT of reconstructive work, and the casket was open. Storm had to go look, so I had Buck take her up.
Anyhow, Storm said he just had a big scar on the side of his head. Buck informed me that it was definitely his 'good' side facing out. Nat seems...ok. Not good, or happy...just ok. Tomorrow after the burial, will tell the tale. I expect Thursday to have a lot of phone calls. Friday, us locals take over, heh. I'm gonna put everyone on alert, and we'll go from there.
I want this to be over. I've evidently found my 'numb' but I'm not sure its a good thing, or a bad thing. I managed to not cry at the funeral home...well, just teared up. No stupid sobbing. I need to figure out if this is permanent, or just for now.
Other things...I'm on more potent anti-bacterial meds. Evidently, no one felt the need to tell me the dr's office called yesterday, so I didn't get the new 'script till today, but at least its only one day. And, I have the joy of another test after this round is done. To be sure they worked, and the blood is out of the urine. So exciting!
Tomorrow is the weigh-in, and here's to smaller numbers.
I'm off to bed...its gonna be a long day.
