It's still Dean.
ReplyDeleteSorry to have missed the Black Friar thread. I have been super focused on getting the service ready for Saturday. Clergy are under-valued!! There are so many details. For example, I need to call the restaurant tomorrow to see if they have a small table, relatively high, which can be used to display the urn. Fortunately, I have some beautiful altar linens that a friend left to me some years ago. I am mentally exhaustified and heading to bed! Sleep!!! Ahhhhhhhh!!!
ReplyDeleteOdd memories. . . . my mother had small pox as a child. She nursed me for several months. They had to try four or five times before a small pox vaccination would take. When I was nearly forty, they tried again before I left for China. It took. Just barely. One tiny tiny blister.
ReplyDeleteI'm printing out the service leaflets now. I believe it will be a very nice service, tailored to the needs of the family. Tonight I learned that the sister I am closest to is having me do the service entirely to suit her older sister. I guess that's okay, though I would like to have done some for each of them, and certainly something tailored to the dear brother who died. People are funny…and dear.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I chose the "White Lace" photo for today because it is the 3rd Anniversary of Youngest's wedding! He and his bride are the parents of Grandson. That little guy is a wonder. He can be happy and bouncy all day long, then smile his way through a 104.5F fever in the evening! I want to be just like him someday. ♡
ReplyDeleteWow, puddle. Smallpox is a big one. I must be the same way about shingles. The vaccine isn't a sure thing yet anyway, but I can never take it because I need to stay on the anti-viral. Sometimes I want to try again to go off the med. But for that I would need to have a good amount of the anti-viral on hand, to quell the shingles should it rear its ugly head.
ReplyDeleteFamilies, and deaths, and funerals. . . . My father's parents' deaths made my mother strategize for the rest of her life to avoid a repeat. . . .
