leaving for the Cape today

We are leaving for the Cape right after we go to Kevin’s Funeral. The actual service is in Orange. Then we will head to I-95 for the Cape. Please don’t let there be heavy traffic when we get there!

As I had hoped I got up early to finish any last minute packing. I ended up not going to bed until late. Mom went to bed around Midnight after shining her shoes. I hitnk she has done most of her packing.

My clothes for the funeral are all ironed and ready to go as well. I am wearing the dark denim pants with the black sweaters. I am wearing the black trotter shoes and the necklace from Mom to finish it off.

Mom had an extra wedding card so I don’t have to get one. I am going to give them money. I seem to remember that giving monetary gifts as wedding presents you are supposed to give the amount of the meal. I am also guessing this is going to be high class wedding.

In my effort to get back to sleep I started reading old entries and one I came across was Kate's Journal - September 10th, 2005. It was kind of funny and the reason I did this was a discussion on my journal writing list prompted me to do it. The poster asked if we ever read past or old journals and I told her yes. Its funny a few said no because it brought up bad memories for them.

I am also following a new blog as of today it is Taz's Corner. The author’s name is Laura and she just joined the Journal Writing list I am on. I sent her a welcome email and introduced myself to her. It looks like she writes mostly about Mail art (post cards, etc) and I guess she writes mostly about her pen pals.

Well I better close out and get ready for the day.
