Jul. 9th, 2009 06:55 pmI just dropped Juliana off at the airport. Her grandfather died yesterday and his funeral is Saturday. We've known he was dying for a couple of weeks, so it wasn't a surprise.
Clearly, I'm not going. I've got way too much to do to prepare for the vigil and doing two serious trips on back-to-back weekends were going to be really, really hard on me.
However, Juliana may need some help finishing her robes at her vigil and before court. They are too bulky to work on on the plane or in the car (plus the terror that the airlines would lose them if she put them in checked baggage), so she's not working on them this weekend. She still needs to do the sleeves and lining, attach sleeves and lining, tack lining at shoulders, hem, and tack the front to the lining (I think). I can't touch the wool (it bites me if I look at it), so I'm useless for this.
In an ironic twist of fate, I will be attending a local funeral while she is gone. A local prior baroness of the group died last week, just before the holiday.
