Funerals are always so hard and, like you, I don't rebound well. I'm glad your kids were ok with that nut case there. It was all over our news as well. How fantastic that you got to meet Jennifer! I'd love to be able to meet both of you some day. Hope this week turns out much better for you. On another note, so sorry about my bad commenting lately. With the colder weather my hands have been bothering me but I'm sure it's going to get better. With not reading and commenting I sure do seem to be missing a lot.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387389557243960084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-75744648033698290972009-11-10T18:59:42.403-05:002009-11-10T18:59:42.403-05:00Funerals are always hard and a couple of them clos...Funerals are always hard and a couple of them close together is an even bigger bummer.

How awful would it have been had all those terrible things occurred while you were off with your friends out of town? So although the stress of the shooting location and the passing of your neighbor & friend's aunt were a lot to take in, at least you were able to be there to do something and your cruise was guilt free.<br /><br />And I think it is wonderful that you got to meet a blogging buddy. And even better that the connection in real life was as enjoyable as it was online. That must have been your reward to balance out all the sad stuff.The Bumbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08334162339045336577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-50868560296103074632009-11-08T21:36:39.687-05:002009-11-08T21:36:39.687-05:00I'm sorry you had such a stressful week.

I'm relieved to know your kids are okay. So sorry you have had such a rough week.

It's great that you were able to meet another blogger, Literate Housewife is an awesome woman so I don't wonder that you found so much to talk about.
