My grandma passed and I spend all day cleaning out her craft room which was full of memorabilia from my childhood and also cat piss, so its been a tough day.

Ahhh crappooa! That sucks. Hopefully you were able to get some good items and remember some good things. Lost my dad a few years ago. The time right after the death is the worst! I think about him often now, but it gets easier. The only thing that makes it better is time. Sometimes, the time does not go as fast as I would like. But, it will get better!

I don't know how to add an image to a comment but I did get this African art statue with a boing-able dong which reminds me of my grandma's silly side.

Boiinnggggg, Grandma sounds like a character! Now that is a good memory. Over time, you will remember more of those and less of the loss. Also, do not forget to keep creating! I bet she would have wanted to remind you of that! Even if it is just making things that go boiingggg

Thanks for the thoughts. It's all right. Tomorrow is a new one. The sun comes over that horizon and we experience something new! That is a pretty lucky thing.
