So today was my Grandpa Shepherd's funeral. It was very sad, and I even cried a little bit. I mean, he was my grandpa. I'll miss him a lot. I'm just glad I have something to remember him by forever. My grandpa was an avid quilter. He even made quilts that took up to 20 years. He learned how to quilt from the Relief Society people when he was on his mission in Hawaii. He made quilts for each of his grandkids. And I was lucky enough to receive one. I will cherish it always.
After the funeral, we had the luncheon, during which I met cousins I didn't even know I had, who happen to be my age, and very nice people. I ran around and played line tag with them today, then went outside and had a snowball fight outside. I hurt my hand catching a snow/frozen ice ball, but had a lot of fun anyway.
We got home and cleaned up for a while. Then my friend said "Hey, do you want to go swimming now?" and I told her I'd better ask my mom first... so I called her quickly, got an okay to go, ran downstairs quickly to let her know that Yes, I could go, but just as I pressed the enter key on the message, she told me "Sorry, just left. Come Friday, maybe."
Just what I needed. I was thinking that it would be nice to get out and just chill for a while but NO, they just happened to have to leave just as I was given the okay to go too. Couldn't she have waited 15 more seconds? ACK. Bad day.
