Hard day

Heather's headstone was put into place without us realizing it, so we got - quite a shock on Saturday morning. (Look, it was probably a weird request for dad to ask that we be notified and be there for when it was delivered but they said 'yes' so it would have been nice to know...)

I compartmentalize really well and kept more of my reaction in than I would have as we were doing things after. It hit pretty hard last night, this feeling that it's really real and there's no waking up from this and carried through today.

I've lived with this for almost 8 months now - and, still, a part of me hadn't processed it. Still hasn't really. So I'm sitting here at Buzz, trying desperately to pull myself together before dinner with Nick and AJ, and wondering why I can't just find a cave to go and hibernate in for the next - year.

Bagels, yes. Actually, I do need to find time in the next crazy two months to see you and Evan.

Sheep and Wool festival is May 4 and 5. I think soft yarns and cuddly sheep may be just the antidote. You can come spend the weekend or just come for a day. :)

Ack, I'd love to but Katherine and Brian's wedding is on the 5th and I'm driving up to the hotel on the 4th. D: Blast; I'd been hoping that festival was on a different weekend.
