What is still to come...

Here's what's going on over the next few days.

I'm probably going to be more or less absent from the interwebs. The wake is on Monday night, and the funeral is on Tuesday. We have several family members who will be staying with us starting tomorrow night, and our computer room is also our guest room. So my internet hours will depend largely on the sleeping pattern of whoever is staying in this room.

Tuesday at eleven is the funeral--I'll be singing the song I sang at Madrigal, "Breath of Heaven," as the prelude. They asked me to lead the songs, but I said point-blank that I don't trust myself not to cry. ESPECIALLY during "Eagle's Wings." I always cry during that one.

And on a happier note, yesterday I finally got to meet a very special someone--her name is Emma, she's one month old, and she's my newest cousin. And she is soooooooooo cute!! She's got the darkest eyes I've ever seen on a baby, and thick dark hair...which her mother insists will turn blonde eventually, as her older siblings have done. And I got to hold her and everything! She's a strong baby! :D :D :D

...and apologies to msbbt and bishonen_girl, who I sort of blew off for the few minutes when I was holding the baby ^^;; Sorry, girls--I fail really hard ^^;;

In the meantime, I'm trying to decide if I should take advantage of tonight and hang out online all night...or go sit in the basement and watch Over the Hedge (I saw it in the theatre, but we rented it so I want to watch it again) and knit for a while. Decisions, decisions...
