Just
posted the last week that was post, so now I am starting a new week
that was post.
Last
night around 11pm Leo came into my bedroom in tears, he had spilt his
drink over his laptop causing it to not work. He is upset about
breaking it, I am annoyed but getting angry isn't going to change
anything.
Monday
was my dad's funeral there was a good turn out like around 80 people
I was glad that all my girls and grandsons attended, mum held up well
she shed some tears and I managed to read
my letter to dad without getting upset.
I
placed my letter to dad on his coffin to be buried with him also
there was a letter from Jessica as well as Hayley and Denni.
Tuesday
was another busy day, had an appointment at Leo's school then Jessica
had to go and hand in her lease review then home and off to the
doctors I go. Today is the first day of second school term.
Wednesday
I did nothing and went nowhere, I did have to wake Leo at 7.50 and
again at 8.00am to get ready for school.
Thursday
was another day doing nothing and going nowhere, Leo here for the
night.
Friday
morning when I got up I found Leo awake and sitting on the lounge and
when I went to turn the TV on Foxtel (pay tv) wasn't working. I had
to turn the box off at the power point and turn it back on again to
get it to work.
Had
a fine day and a wet afternoon, Leo here again tonight while his mum
is working.
Saturday
morning Tim & I drove Leo home before we went over too mum's to
pick up the cans & bottles from dad's wake. It is a cool slightly
wet day.
Mum
was ok she is holding up well, she has been watching a lot of TV
because she needs to be doing something otherwise she starts to think
about going through dad's stuff something she is ready to do as she
feels it will be too hard to do. Just after dad died Dawson packed up
dad's odds and ends into a clear plastic container and left sitting
on the table dad used this upset my sister she felt it was wrong and
mum was just getting rid of dad's stuff.
The
rest of the day was spent writing letters to pen pals and doing
nothing much.
Feels to me like you are still grieving for your father - which is where you should be. I am so sorry about your father.
ReplyDeleteYou have had a harrowing week when all said and done Jo-Anne.
ReplyDeleteSounds like Mum's handling in a healthy way. People need to step back and see how the other person grieves before complaining IMHO. "Glad" to see your tv works about like ours, lol!
ReplyDeleteOh, Hon,
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear about your dad. My condolences.
Sandie.....Yes I am and thank you for the kind words
