Just a quick update. I'm back, sort of. The funeral service was awful and beautiful. weemonkey6 did such a fantastic job singing Hear You Me at the end that I doubt there were many dry eyes in the place. I know mine weren't, and really I had maintained quite well until then. But the weather! A "Hollywood funeral" weemonkey6 called it, with rain POURING down and thunder booming away throughout the Mass. Really bizarre. Maybe Mom ordered it, special for us.

Anyway, am now contending with mountains of paperwork, but making good progress. And I am going to try to catch up on my reading at Black Pearl Sails, and here at LJ, too, though it may take a while. I did read ladywarringford's latest chapter of her story, PotC: Between The Raindrops this morning and it was just wonderful. If you like het romance, don't miss it. She's a wonderful writer.

Again, many thanks to all of you for the kind thoughts, prayers, and virtual hugs. It made such a difference.

As ladymora says, "I have a deep and abiding love for you all." Which is no more than the truth.

Will now post two recipes to prettygoodfood, and then... arg!... paperwork and numerous errands!

{{{hugs you all}}}

That kind of weather is very unusual around here, and practically unheard of in October -- it's more of a Spring thing, if anything. It was amazing. And yes, beautiful. We all came back to the house (after standing around in the pouring rain at the cemetary) and lit all the candles and a fire in the fireplace.

Today it's sunny and 70 degrees. Very cheering!
