Vacation needed

I ordered more thank you notes today from the funeral home. Hopefully, someone can pick them up as I will be working. Maybe if I address all the envelopes, put stamps and return address labels on them, perhaps it would expedite things? Dad is getting antsy, wants to get things in order. He has an iron infusion on Monday and hopes to make an appointment with his doctor and that she will recommend home care. Perhaps my mother's former aide can help. I have stopped reading the facebook page of the little baby that died from the chromosomal disorder. Funny thing to do immediately after sending the family flowers. But two of the posts were about fundraisers and reading the entries "does not serve a useful purpose" any more. My friend, who lives in a group home, needs comfort food, wants me to bring her Lay's potato chips. Really! I met my sister for lunch yesterday and we conversed well. I guess I was overly sensitive the day she called. Work was busy...I had to change the water in the buckets, cut the stems, add new flowers, take corsage and boutonniere orders for homecoming, sell bouquets and take orders. A customer came into the store to buy cards. She had taken her elderly client to the garage to get her car fixed. The client told her to go the the coffee shop and bring "tea, sweetener and a spoon." The aide said she needed a vacation.
