What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

That's a good idea! Have the best friend be in charge of a sign-up sheet. Just give them her number!

*makes notes to self*
I think that’s a good approach. It my extended family someone is designated as the coordinator (usually outside the immediate circle of mourners). Their “job” is to coordinate support through the mourning period.

I’m not sure where it originates from, probably a mix of the two cultures (Native American and Great Plains). We also have a set mourning period (1 year) with structured events and roles.
 
I thought we would lose my mom in November. I still find myself weepy to think about. But, we've had to have tough discussions since then. So I know what her wishes are in certain cases. It's not fun, but necessary.
My Mom had been preparing for years, prepaid everything. She even wrote a letter to be read at the funeral. I wish sometimes she wasn't that prepared but it did make things much easier for us.

I'm sorry you almost lost your mom, but glad you didn't. I hope she continues doing well for a long time! But it is good to have the conversations, especially before it gets too late... my parents left things almost too late & that made getting some things in order more difficult.

Most of our conversations were centered around emergency situations and DNR. I needed to know, not just my dad. He's older and slowing down...so one of us younguns need the info.
 
So the Niners are coming back up here to take on the Hawks. ....interesting.
Of course we have to wait until the game playing now is over to see who the Broncos are hosting.
The possibility of the Weed Bowl is coming.
