Life is okay and then it's fucking awful. jfc.
Update. I haven't down this in soooo long. Sorry, Tumblr is like, this thing that sucks you in and never spits you back up. LJ just doesn't have all the distractingly pretty graphics LJ.
But I mentioned awfulness, didn't I?
Leanna's mom passed away last friday morning. It's been... hard. She was something like second mother to me, and I've never lost anyone I was close to before. How do you get through 27 years of life without experiencing the loss of a loved one? I don't even know. Anyway, I was in Kaladar on Saturday, visiting with Leanna and the family. God. I'm so bad at that kind of thing, but I couldn't <i>not</i> be there. Leanna's my best friend and I think I needed it too. And then I cried the whole drive back to Marmora, because I can't cry in front of people, apparently.
The service is tomorrow. I was able to switch my shifts around so I have the day off, so I'm heading out to Marmora again tonight and my mom's gonna come with me. I'm really glad she is.
Do I have any other, non-depressing news? Ah, Jen's still living here with me. Mike's gone back to teach. They're saving up for a belated honeymoon (three years belated) planned just before Christmas, so Jen's decided to keep working 'til then. She's heading up north with him after his Christmas holiday, so I'll have the house to myself again after that. Not that I dislike the company or anything, and this is actually their place, but it's still weird having to share sometimes.
We've got a trip to the States planned for next weekend. I got my enhanced driver's licence about a month ago, so we can hop over the border so long as it's by car. We're mostly just planning a shopping trip.
So, that's my life. I just keep truckin' through.
