Didn’t post about this yesterday when I first heard, as not all my sisters had heard yet.

We’ve been expecting this for about two years now, ever since the first time he got pneumonia. However he went quietly in his sleep.

I’ve been working off and on. It’s a nice distraction even if I lose focus pretty easily.

Ariel’s generally taken it well. She knew my grandpa a little bit but not too well. She just needed to be held at first, then today she had a complete meltdown. Took a solid 10-15 minutes for her to let it all out, insisting all the time that it was just because the cat bit her.

I won’t be doing my newsletter this week or next, due  to the funeral not being until Monday, which means I won’t be home when I would normally be doing next week’s newsletter.
