Day 81

Today was kind of the calm before the storm. There were still preparations to be made, several wonderful guests stopped by, and more family arrived, but it wasn’t a high-stress day on most counts. It’s so good to be together. 

Tomorrow, the day of the funeral, will be a big day. It will naturally be difficult, but I think it will be a proper celebration of life. Hopefully we will hit the mark, and it will be #kathytastic. I have felt honored to be included in some of the preparations. 

I’m feeling less inspired tonight than I was last night. I made a fresh batch of brownies, but we were too tired for B.B. Time. I will sleep well tonight. 

Something great about today: strawberry pretzel salad  Mmmm.  (Disclaimer, that might not be the exact recipe for the one we had, but it seems reasonable, and the photo looks the same. Also, I didn’t take this photo. It’s from the recipe website above.)
