Ok guys, I just need Heloise to come to my house, cause I am a social faux pas, anyway...
Here's the deal. My neice got married in Hawaii on February 18. Her reception is this Saturday 4 hours from here. She wanted to have a hog roast like we did for our reception, so my gift to her was a hog and the roasting. I am supposed to pick up the hog at 10am Saturday (which adds an hour to the trip). The reception starts at 5. Also, this is one of the 2 nieces that lived with me 6 days a week until she was almost 3 while her mom finished school.
husband's grandmother passed away last night. She was 98, I think. She lived in a nursing home. I've only met her a couple of times. husband doesn't "like" hospitals/homes/dying, so he visisted once a year if forced, even tho she lived very close. He doesn't even visit his parents in the hospital when they are there for whatever reason (which is fairly frequent). I'm sure the funeral will be Saturday. I hope it will be at 10, but I'm guessing it will be noon, and if its at noon, it will make the hog late getting to the reception. And being the reception is a long ways away, I can't just ask a buddy to run the hog over for me...
I'm praying I don't have to choose, but if I do, what's the right thing to do here???
(I guess I'll also throw in the neice's mom's mother almost died Monday night, and neice's mom made the decision to take her off the ventilator, but was not going to let it impact the reception, it would go on. However, when they took her off the ventilator, she rallied and pulled thru on her own...)
