Lemming Tracks: It's Been Quite a Week - and it Ain't Over Yet

The Lemming has had quite a week. Make that quite a month.

My second-oldest daughter got married.

My father's condition took a turn for the worse.

My new son-in-law got really, really, sick; couldn't eat; a scary several days.

My son-in-law got better, my father got worse. Lots worse.

My father died.

I buried my father and mother's remains yesterday.

And it isn't over yet: I've got the other half of their remains left to bury in Illinois. They were cremated, you see, and the ashes comingled. It isn't as gross or weird as it sounds.

I need to get a bulletin ready for the local Knights of Columbus council. Before Sunday, if humanly possible.

But, hey: no pressure.

The point of going into this detail of my everyday life is in case you've noticed a slight change in tone in these posts. There's more about what's happening with me and the family, at Through One Dad's Eye, whose URL is smalltowndad.blogspot.com, because I changed the name of the blog after starting it.

Oh, well. Life goes on.
