At Peace

My Grandpa passed away Sunday night.  I am NOT upset about it...why?  He is happy now.  Grandma died over six years ago.  Three months after Paul and I were married.  Ever since he has always said "I just wanna go be with Ma".  He hasn't been the same since she passed away.

Yes I will miss him.  I mean he was my Grandpa.  He was my last living Grandparent.  I will probably loose a lot of my family with this death.  For some... no so sad.  For others, I hope it doesn't happen.  I have a lot of thoughts that go through my head.  Most I should just keep to myself for safe of others. 

Today was the visitation.  I did not go to the early one.  I have two and a half hours of sick time and two and a half hours of vacation time left at work.  I get one day unpaid and one day paid funeral time for Grandparents.  I have to use that vacation time up before March 15th or I loose it.  David had a cardiologist appointment the day before I get my time back.  I decided my sons beating heart was more useful of that time then the early 'boring' visitation.  I did go to the evening one.  Boring... they always are.  Not many people came, not even close to when Grandma passed away.  No one I knew showed.  Not surprised.

And the cousins mentioned in previous entry didn't say a word to me.  I ignored them myself.  I wasn't there for them anyways.  But the father of said cousins gave me the evilest look you could give anyone.  I wanted to get up and kick him in the nuts, but I didn't.  I should have smiled and winked at him... dammit I would think of that when it's to late.  Tomorrow is the funeral.  Maybe then... ha ha ha... no.

Wish me luck... something I totally do NOT want to do but I find more and more as I get older, you do a lot of shit you don't want to do.
