well - I have another funeral to go to today - and it's still only January......yeah.....not looking forward to going, and would rather not go at all - but I know I should go, and I should also be there for another family member (a member of their family, is who has passed away).
 Maybe I'll just stay for the service itself that is being held at the church, and skip the graveside part and the reception afterwards - I went to the afternoon "viewing" yesterday, and there's only so much I can handle.  So,    I guess I'll finish getting ready, and go.
 two funerals, and this year has just begun...not sure I'm looking forward to this coming year or not....anybody's guess, what's in store. :/
