I'm trying not to dwell too much... Mostly because every time I start thinking about it I cry! But at the end of the day I'm still gonna have a courthouse wedding and God willing everyone will stay healthy for next year when everything is rescheduled.Oh no, this is so sad.
My sister passed away on March 6th. We were planning a Memorial Luncheon for her last Sunday. We felt it was best to cancel since we were expecting about 80 people.
We will have it when things settle down. Probably in the summer.
My Mother in Law passed last Thursday. Originally, there was going to be a wake, but of course there is no wake and now her funeral set for tomorrow, is going to be private. There will be 15 of us, (if my kids and I even go) my husbands 3 siblings, their spouses and children. Many people are very sad/disappointed that they can't come.
The siblings planned to have all of us go to a restaurant after the service. I said that the kids and I weren't going. Then yesterday all restaurants in our state were closed. So, now one brother is hosting everybody at his house. We are not going. We have been told to NOT gather in groups, to stay home etc. Why they are getting together is beyond me.
Personally, I wanted to postpone the funeral. I feel like so many people aren't taking this seriously.
Its sad that my sweet Mother in Law passed during this pandemic, but it is what it is.
Well, we homeschool, so for the most part, our days are business as usual; however...

- The library sent out an email yesterday that said they didn't care what items people had signed out...books, DVD's, whatever, that they didn't want anybody to return anything, there would be no late fees, and that all items had been renewed until April 30th. (Wish I would have anticipated that move and stocked up on a few extra things before they closed. At the time, I didn't want the hassle of trying to return stuff in the midst of everything else, so didn't make a book run when I could have.)
