well I finally got back into blogger. so things have been busy.I have been making my final arrangements so that it's all done and then I can relax.
I have finished plans for the cemetery,chosen the reverend,decided on the funeral home, coffin,music and where the chapel service will be. People may think I am odd or strange, maybe even a little crazy and perhaps I am, but I feel so good to have this opportunity to make my own arrangements the way I want them rather than leaving it to someone else. I even get to make my own purple pillow :). Well I guess that is all and I may have very few updates. I don't have any appointments until march so I hope things stay quiet until then.

Velda, I don't it's odd at all. I think it's good that you have it all taken care of now. In fact, I think it's something we should all do- regardless of our health.
ReplyDeleteVelda, I think this is great to have it all taken care in advance ~ much easier for your family, too. My dad did the same and it was comforting to know that his wishes were followed.

I don't think you are crazy at all. I truly believe it eases the burden of those left behind. (((HUGS))) and glad you are feeling good with the arrangements.
