Photo Post.

Didn't feel up to posting yesterday. I had a really bad day. Today's been better, I guess. I'm posting family photos from over the years.

I'll probably post tomorrow. We're meeting with the priest this Saturday about the Mass, we need to pick out music and readings, and I need to work on whatever eulogy I'm going to be reading. This week will suck.

Again I have to say that your Grandmother is stunning. Those pictures of her in her wedding dress are absolutely gorgeous! I have never seen pictures of either of my grandmothers' weddings (they probably didn't have any, both getting married in teh 30s as they did).

It sounds as though you were amazingly blessed to have her in your life. How is your Grandfather handling things?

*continued prayers*

He's having ok days and bad ones. He said it's worst in the evening, after we've called and he's fed the cat and there's just ...quiet... It's been hard for him to want to talk to Ma or me on the phone, as well, since we both sound like Gramma. He's been talking to Steven a lot though.

It's funny, her photog actually put her wedding photo in the window of his studio to advertise. She and my great-grandmother were walking in Providence and did a double take.

I've seen bridal portraits from teens and 20s. Maybe your parents have some stashed away somewhere?

Your grandma looks amazing in her wedding dress. I'm so sorry that she was taken away from you so suddenly. :(

I hope you're doing better.

Yesterday was a little better. Tomorrow's probably going to be really hard, though. I imagine I'll be flooding everyone's flist again. I'm glad I'm working tomorrow, though. It will keep me busy.

That's still wild how much you and your gradmother look alike.

It really is. It's funny, we sound a lot alike, too. It's been hard for my grandfather to talk to Ma or me on the phone because of it.

This helped me when I lost my dad. It was hard to do, but in the end I think it helped me. I have a few suggestions, that you might like, whenever you are ready to talk more. Love you hon...*HUGS*

It did feel like it helped a little. Like I've said, yesterday was a little better, tomorrow will probably not be so hot. I'm happy for suggestions, if you want to email them. That way, I can look when I'm feeling up to it.

Ok, will see about doing that. Internetz here is a little spotty and I have to be super careful with my laptop right now so it might be a little delayed. Head is hurting big time now too, so going back to bed in a few.

Your grandma is gorgeous! I just love her wedding pictures.

I hope that the days will start to get better for you. I'm thinking of you.

I hope they will. The first big one was yesterday.

I love seeing photos! Thanks for sharing.

:) It felt good to share them. It was nice to remember happier times. I got your card yesterday. Thank you so much!
