My grandmother passed away this morning. I'm not asking for any sympathy. In fact, I'm happy for her. Ever since her husband passed, she's been really lonely without him. And now she's back with him again, in peace.
I'll get to see some wonderful people, though, my parents, my dad's brothers, many aunts, uncles, and cousins. And my favorite baby cousin will end up getting to spend his first birthday with his grandmother, an unexpected treat.
And there's a great yarn shop in Cleveland.
However, my blogging schedule will not be what I expected it would be.
Thanks! Back soon. (And sorry for posting the same thing here as on my "non-knitting blog")

Posted by: Rachael at August 27, 2004 09:31 AMWhen my grandmother passed away, she was cremated. My mother then returned to Illinois to fetch her father's ashes (he had been dead for 40 years) and we took both of their ashes to my parents land in Southern Colorado where we returned them, together, to the earth. I completely understand what you meant by them together again.
Best Wishes!
Jon
