so i spent all day with mom, grandma, and aunt lucille. tomorrow's gonna be a tough day, but not as tough as wednesday... the funeral. it's gonna be closed-casket because of the swelling... grandma decided she wants us to remember him as he was, not as he died. she didn't want to see it again either......

i dunno.

last night after the store closed, patty let me make grandpa a bear. in WWII, his unit was called the polar bears, because during WWI, they had been stationed way up north. so i made a polar bear in camouflage. grandma liked it.
