Awww, that's so sad about your collegue, hopefully you won't have to go to another memorial service for a long long time Mari. I understand about staying home to relax and how it's totally necessary in order to get back to the grind. You do what you know you need to and don't worry about what people think.
I am doing okay so far, have to go get blood drawn today for my upcoming dr appt. I really hate having to get it done but when you take a lot of medications you need to monitor your liver functions and other things. I also have to go return a pair of shoes I got my DH that were completely the wrong size. I swear they were the right size but sadly they really weren't, I don't know how I got them in place of what I thought I was getting. But then that's how it goes sometimes, you pick up one thing and are positive its what you wanted only to find later it's completely not.
Ou TV died yesterday morning and DH worked hard all day setting up a computer as a TV since we had the right video card it wasn't too hard, but he had to fiddle around with the hard drive and whatnot for hours. I am lucky he's so good with stuff like that.

Jackie was so upset it died on us like that, so I knew we had to either get another TV or get that computer set up for us ASAP.
