Jun. 23rd, 2007 10:39 amso yesterday was irritating, after the first post that I made, Ruthie continued to not nap for basically the whole rest of the day, and was extremely cranky/fussy because of it. The less said about that the better, I guess. ah well
In other news, this afternoon I'm going to the memorial service for that ex-coworker who died a couple weeks ago. I'm kind of dreading it. I realized that I've not ever actually been to a memorial/funeral/anything like that, except the one for my grandfather which doesn't really count since I was only what, 15. So, I'll probably bawl a lot, I guess. I don't know. I wasn't exactly best friends with Mike or anything, but I knew him fairly well and he was a great guy so it will definitely be hard.
I just hope the thing isn't too overly-religious such as to make me cringe. Mike wasn't very religious that I could see, but that doesn't necessarily seem to have anything to do with anything. We shall see.
Meanwhile I'm a bit worried about leaving the kids w/my mom, because she has injured her foot and it gives her a lot of pain if she does too much carrying (i.e., Ruthie). So send her pain-free vibes if you can.
OK, time to go figure out what to wear.
edit I found Mike's obit online: here I'm not sure why it says he was "working toward" becoming a US citizen; I thought he already had completed that process, but maybe I'm wrong.
