Just a few more days...

We are almost to the break (although I did agree to work one day over break).  Catherine gets home tomorrow, and I'm so excited to have her around for nearly THREE WEEKS!  I'm so grateful that she wants to spend this much time with us.  She has her own apartment and could go back if she wanted to, but she mentioned she will be here until at least Andrew's birthday in the beginning of January.  How did we get so lucky and have such an amazing daughter?

I spent yesterday visiting my Dad's cousin for a bit.  We social distanced, but it was so good to see them.  Today I dropped my grandmother's fruit order to her.  We both sat social distanced again and wore masks.  It was so wonderful to get to spend some time with her.  I am worried about her.  I worry about her getting COVID, and I worry about her mentally.  I know that she is lonely, and these dark, cold days don't help.  I try to reach out to her, but I just worry that she seems a little sad.  While tomorrow is never promised, she is almost 90, and it kills me to think that her last Christmas on Earth could be spend this way.  She is healthy overall and doing well, but you just never know.

Still lots to do this week, but life is full of so many blessings!
