It's a "feeling down" kind of day. My former grandmother-in-law passed away last week and the funeral is tomorrow. I talked with the ex about me coming out for it. I wanted to go, and I was welcome to of course, but with Ryan it'd be really difficult. I wouldn't want to drag him cross-country, so I'd have to take a red-eye, make a quick dash the service and then head right back to the airport. The ex agreed that that would be kind of an absurd trip to make. Still, I'm sitting here feeling a little guilty over the selfishness of not making the effort. It's true that I can pay my respects from anywhere, and I sent off condolence cards, but it's not the same as being there to say goodbye and support a family who still considers me as a member (as I them). I'm just glad I got to honor her request for new pictures of Ryan just before she passed.

She was an awesome woman, always positive, strong, but soft-hearted, always with a smile and open arms. I'll miss her very much. Requiescat in pacem, Grandma V.
