A Day Spent With Family

We left around 9am and got home after 5pm. It was a day to gather with family. Our vehicle was the last to arrive at the cemetery so once we got there (a little before noon), we went on with the graveside time. We sang a couple of hymns, read a couple of scriptures, and, Nathan said a few words, told a new story that he had learned last night about Woody. Some of us stayed till the casket was lowered, but others headed off with Aunt Melany to explore the nearby creek. That helped with sadness with the younger ones! Once everyone gathered together again, we headed off to have a family meal. We enjoyed the food and the fellowship amongst outselves. After we ate, we headed back up the road and went to the momument company to order the headstone. I pretty much had in mind what I wanted and with everyone's help, we soon found one we all liked. We gave the information needed and then headed off to our respective homes. We got back to Shelbyville and Nathan and Graham left us to go look at a car that Graham was interested in purchasing...a red Ford Fusion...same year as mine...so now there are three Ford Fusions in our family...white (mine), white (Abigail's) and red (Graham's). Abigail's is a newer year than Graham's and mine. Kathy dropped me off at my house and the rest headed home. We're all pretty weary aftet our long day. I got home in time for prayer meeting and decided that would go since I have been out of pocket for the last few weeks. It was good to be back with our group. I came home and had a bite to eat...not really too hungry since I had a pretty big meal for lunch. And, now there is a decision to be made...to continue the blog or not...since it was started to keep people informed about Woody, should I keep on doing it sinc the main subject for the blog is no longer with us?? I'm not sure that I can just stop it "cold turkey," since I have been doing it for so many years. I'll think about it...but for the moment I think you will still hear from me regularly...pretty ingrained in me after 15 1/2 years. So...for the moment...to be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
