LONG WEEK

OKAY SIS HERE YOU GO. MY SISTER TOLD ME EITHER AT THANKSGIVING OR THIS PAST WEEK THAT I NEEDED TO UPDATE MY BLOG. SO HERE IT IS.SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED IN THE LAST MONTH. IT SEEMS ALL I DO IS WORK. WELL IT HAS BEEN A LONG WEEK . LAST MONDAY THE 8TH MY MOM CALLED ME AT WORK TO SAY THAT MY DADS DAD HAD PASSED AWAY. WE KNEW THAT IT WAS COMING BUT IT WAS STILL DIFFICULT TO HANDLE. MY BROTHER FLEW IN ON TUESDAY AND THEN MY SISTER AND FAMILY CAME IN ON WEDNESDAY. IT WAS NICE TO GET TO BE WITH THEM AGAIN SO SOON EVEN THOUGH IT WAS FOR A FUNERAL. WE ALSO HAD VARIOUS COUSINS COMING IN FROM ALL OVER. ON WEDNESDAY DAD DROVE MOM, LONNY AND I OVER TO MATADOR TO THE FUNERAL HOME. ALL I COULD THINK WAS GRANDADDY DID NOT LOOK LIKE HIMSELF, SO SKINNY. SOME BODY HAD BUTTONED THE SIDES OF HIS OVERALLS AND HE NEVER HAD THEM BUTTONED( MAINLY BECAUSE HE COULD NEVER GET THEM BUTTONED).I KEPT TELLING MY DAD I WANTED THEM UNBUTTONED. SOMEONE DID THAT BEFORE THE FUNERAL. IT WAS NICE TO SEE ALL OF MY DADS FAMILY BUT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES. I GOT TO SPEND SOME TIME WITH MY COUSIN AMY WHO I HAD NOT SEEN IN A VERY LONG TIME AND EVERYTHING I DID THAT SHE THOUGHT WAS WEIRD SHE REFFERED TO IT AS "A TEXAS THING". I REALY ENJOYED IT.I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET SOME CHRISTMAS SHOPPING DONE BUT NOT DOING A VERY GOOD JOB. I HOPE TO GET SOME DONE SOON OR SOMEBODY IS NOT GOING TO GET ANYTHING FOR XMAS. WELL THAT IT IS ABOUT IT . I HOPE TO GET SOME PICTURES OF THE KIDS POSTED SOON ,IF I CAN FIGURE IT ALL OUT. I HOPE EVERYBODY HAS A BLESSED CHRISTMAS.
