So here I am at Coffee Bean, with a hazelnut Latte and Apple pie, getting my act together. I was up at five this morning, with all the cats waiting for breakfast. Started Ma's laundry, set up breakfast, went to sleep after the second load went in the machine.
The weather has turned. I slept like a log - you know the kind, where the world could end and you couldn't give a damn. When I woke up, I had to bundle parents to the park to get their senior cash gift. Brought Ramon's papers with me, since he was posthumously eligible. Discovered the additional requirements for collecting his benefit.
So after lunch, I ran off to the xerox shop and had the relevant documents copied. Then returned to the park, where I ran into Ramon's cardio... We had a nice chat, and agreed it was a merciful thing Ramon went so suddenly, and at home, not while out checking the Christmas commotion downtown.
So... After that was done, it was off to Landmark to pay a bill. Due date today! Did that, felt righteous, and here I am, drinking a bomb of a hazelnut latte. Plus eating an apple pie that tops McDo anytime.
People tell me to take it easy... But I'm not one to sit still. Lie down, maybe, but I had things to do - and right now there are so many things to do! Plus I actually have a social calendar of sorts... Lunch with Ramon's family on Sunday, possible lunch on the 18th with my bestie, possible dinner on the 30th. Then there's the matter of laundry, cleaning out Ramon's stuff, etc.
Looks like I'll be OK. Ramon always said I would be able to hold it together after he was gone, so far so good. Now, I'm going to enjoy the rest of the free WiFi before my battery goes pfft.

He was adamant that, I shouldn't spend too much time in grief. Looking at it, the past eight years, waiting for that one heart attack, was my entire grieving process. Life goes on.

There's no one right way to do things, and you know yourself best. Just make sure you're taking care of yourself!
