I don’t think I’ve done anything this week that doesn’t fall into the category of organizing – I’ve arranged a wake, cleaned out my father’s office which had as much stuff packed into it as the rest of the house combined, and made all the telephone calls required to inform companies and the government that he had died. If nothing else, the constant repetition of the information makes it seem like it’s been more than a week.

On the flip side, never having done any of these things before I’ve learned a lot about just diving in and figuring it out as you go and what a lot I’ve learned! Aside from one or two local opportunists, everyone has been very helpful which is also a good reminder as to the true nature of the majority of humanity.  It’s also possible to let laughter (the real kind) process grief and keep everything in perspective.

I’m hoping this week to fit in a little more organizing of my own work although that may be wishful thinking.  Sometimes you do just have to go with the flow and let things take their course.
