sabotlours | Getting Shit Done

My sister arrived safely yesterday and headed off to stay at Mom's. Kitty arrived a little later and we headed off to our hotel. It was then time to relax and plan our next course of action.

Today we did various tasks. We picked out an outfit for Mom, and Sis brought it over to the funeral home. I did more mundane tasks like stopping the mail and cancelling her newspaper subscription. Kitty went with Sis to buy floral arrangements. I called a restaurant near the cemetery and arranged for an "after the burial" luncheon. It's nice to have "fuck you" money now so I can pay for a luncheon for 30-40 people and not give a damn on what it costs. We're gonna send off Mom the right way! Open bar!!!

All of her oxygen equipment has been sent back. Her hearing aids have been returned for an almost-full refund. Tomorrow we get rid of the wheelchair I had arranged for her. Then I head off to a local bakery to buy a bunch of tasty treats for the memorial service. My Sis and I have planned out a return visit in less than a month to do the (in)famous "keep or toss" process that happens after every death.
