Well, my mom passed away very early yesterday morning, so my plans have certainly changed from what they were a few days ago. Yesterday & today were take out & heat & eat foods as we made arrangements. The funeral service can’t take place until Tuesday with the wake on Monday from 4-8 pm. My DD & DDIL had previously arranged to take their moms to a local restaurant for a delayed Mothers Day brunch this Sunday. It’s the #1 Sunday brunch in our area & it’s booked weeks in advance. I decided I still want to do that, spending time with them will make my heart happy. After that I will be joining my siblings & their kids to go thru photos at mom’s house & make the photo boards to display at the funeral home. Another family member has offered to have catered meal with fried chicken & salads delivered for us as we do that. Memorial Day will just be something light before we go to the wake. We’ll have a luncheon in a banquet facility after the funeral on Tuesday with chicken & roast beef, potatoes, pasta & vegetables. My sisters & I will meet for breakfast Wednesday morning, then go to the cemetery together to remember our parents. It’s going to be a long weekend.
