.~~~stressing about how to get the group to the widow's sister's house several towns away -- maybe 50 mins from me -- more for mins for the others ~~~


My colleague's widow called late this morning and I missed the call. My work friend missed his call too. We are invited to a "dinner party" for our friend.
So now we are behind time. And we have to time-coordinate with an ex-colleague who quit last year but who also dearly loved the colleague who died. Both men. (ARGH)


Men are impossible to deal with. I don't know how they manage in the world.
Because of those two guys, I have no idea when hubby and I are supposed to go to the widow's sister's house --- the time is a very open ended. I need to wait until the work colleague takes care of some things. He is far in the opposite direction from the widow's sister's house



Anyway, my tasks.
1. Let hubby nap. When he wakes up tell him to fix himself some rotisserie chicken I just bought.
2. I bought some cookies from a gourmet bakery to take to the sister's house.
3. A few days ago I printed and enlarged some pictures of the last time we were together last July. At that time, I also bought frames and pretty gift bags with gift cards and names so that the three people (widow, ex-colleague, current colleague) can have their own bag.


My sis says that cookies and framed pictures is enough to bring to the "dinner party."
