Tammy, drinking and the funds, or lack there of.

Tammy, you may or may not realize after tonight what you meant to us. Your presence was needed as a reminder, that you are you. Tammy. Our cousin. And even though many of us are furious with your dad. You still came.

The fact that you walked in and came right to us, it means more then I think you will ever know. That is what some of us needed to see. That showed us that through all the BS with our parents. Us cousins can still be there for each other.

The wake was far less dramatic then I thought it would be. Everyone was pretty good. No cops were involved. Shock. No one really seemed to be drunk or under some sort of influence. Shock. But tomorrow is another day.

I just can't wait till this is all over, so my parents don't have to pay for any more of this. If the family doesn't give the Funeral Home at least $1100.00 tomorrow morning there will be no service. After counting the envelopes we are about $600 shy. So my mom is going to pay the difference, and the other $6000 is on my cousins to deal with.

So glad my Uncle and Aunt are chipping in, or the fact that they didn't show really puts the last nail in the coffin. (pun intended) So now my mother has no siblings, they are all dead either figuratively or litterly.

Oh tomorrow should be a humdinger of a day...
