Family

Family isn't always the people we are related to by blood. I've always known that but it's been really obvious the last couple of weeks. Heather's Pop Pop passed away 2 weeks ago, he was like my Pop Pop. I couldn't have imagined not being there for Heather and her family to say goodbye. Last night I went to a wake for a co-worker who lost his wife suddenly last weekend. She was 54, she was too young. I walked into the funeral home to see many people I knew from work and as we were there for awhile it seemed as if half the building was there. I love my work family. They also clean up very nicely! I couldn't imagine what he's going through right now but he has an extended family who is there for him. I wish people didn't die. I know they do. I wish people wouldn't cry. I know they do. But we all have bigger families that we know to support us.. If you are reading this, you're my friend and I consider you in one way or another part of my crazy life family. I guess we really do get by with a little help from our friends!
