As weeks go, this beats all...I have little I can say and yet it feels like I need to talk my mouth off.
If you missed it, one of my uncles passed on late Friday.  His wake is going to be on Wednesday night, his funeral Thursday morning.  It doesn't matter that I didn't feel close to him, it's still a family member and my heart feels particularly heavy.
I've never been to either a wake or a funeral, so I'm trying to arrange to go with my parents, which is now pretty much assured...the only thing we're trying to work out is departure time for both of these things.  Later today I'll make sure my suit and best dress clothes still fit me (if they don't, I'll get appropriate attire tomorrow night).
I should mention this too because it has me torn: The certification exam I had scheduled for Friday now happens to be the day after the funeral.  I have a lot of doubts about the appropriateness of taking the exam and feel that I should push it back two weeks to the next Friday opening (which would be February 4).  We discussed it over breakfast this morning and my parents feel I should go for it anyway, but...
...emotionally speaking, Idk if that's the right thing to do.  As it stands now, my heart is so heavy that I can't hear it and it can't hear me.
