Open Thread Post 85 - Getting rid of leftovers

The meat and green beans amounts were almost perfect. Very little left. Not true for everything else. Chips that aren't eaten by Wednesday when both my son and one of his best friends have left, will get donated to Graces of Gurley, along with all the extra sodas and a couple bags of buns. I gave away most of the bread pudding today. I love the stuff and could eat it all day, but I don't feel too healthy afterwards.

I had used plantable flowers, little daisy type plants, which Rock 2 had wrapped with burlap and various colorful sheer ribbon, as centerpieces. Those got planted by our back deck today.

I had to do some work (I took 4 hours PTO),took the dog to The Spot again, got the oil changed (1k miles over… I never do that), texted with multiple people and a catch-up phonecall this evening with my adopt-a-dad.

Another full day done and tonight I'll read and fall asleep early. I'm curious how my emotions will go now. I had The Last Songs in my head and went ahead and watched the movie of pictures I created for them, and cried sometime in the late morning. I feel like I’ll never get OVERWHELMED with grief again, but I could be very wrong. Only time will tell.
