Been somewhat busy with work and kid stuff the past couple of days. The funeral service for my co-worker is coming up this weekend so I will plan on going to that. I don't have the kids this weekend so it makes going a heck of a lot easier...
Since I heard Monday morning of his passing, I've been cycling back to nearly two years ago when a good friend who I met way back in 1992 passed away. Another good man leaving a wife and two kids (albeit much older than my co-worker's daughters). At the time, I told W that I really wanted to attend my friend's funeral and wake and needed her help since it was on a weekday when I had the kids. W didn't budge - said that it was enough that I went to the visitation. The sad thing was that W was also friends with the guy. One of those things I just have to let go of so that I can truly move on...
Things are being taken care of moving towards the house sale later this month. I strongly suspect that on that date or a couple of days later, I'll receive something in the mail from the courts saying that W has officially filed. Should it come, it will sting a bit but most of my grieving has passed.
