saucy_dryad: (trying to resonate concrete)
In case you were wondering, what really spurred my burning need to get back to exercising regularly was a pair of jeans.

in which I'm bit of an idiot )

Now I must go to the grocery store to buy a tub of Godiva ice cream in celebration gather many nutritious foodstuffs in preparation for the long siege of NaNoWriMo.

... I am being spam-ish. I should be doing laundry, NaNo prep and a whole lot of housework. Instead, I ask you this:

So.

We'll be having a Memorial Service for Dad on Sunday, November 11th (which also happens to be Veterans' Day) at the VFW post. The Honor Guard will do a rifle salute, play taps, and then fold and present Mom with the flag.*

After, it'll just be drinks and food and sharing memories, and at some point in the future Dad's ashes will be scattered off an aircraft carrier.**



*My sister handled booking the VFW (Dad was Post Commander some years ago) and is taking care of the food, so I took over the 'services,' such as they are. Long story short, we're doing military honours. And I nearly lost it when I was talking to the man in charge of the Honor Guard. guh.

**If I've not mentioned it, Dad was a pilot. As a child, I only knew him as a corporate pilot, but he got his training in the Navy. He was a test pilot, and also flew reconnaissance, but most of all he loved his days flying from the carriers. Yep; my dad was a flyboy!



All may yet be very well.
