Hello GKU. I'm about to catch up on some Monday randomness but I have a what would you do situation. I am trying to decide go to services for a celebration of life or not. So go or no?
Situation : some one new to my volunteer group who I have met a handful of times lost her husband. I hate hate hate going to wakes / celebrations of life. Who enjoys them ? I get overwhelmed and cry. It reminds me of all the people I have lost. If it's not some one very close to me I think crying is not appropriate and I will weird people out. I'm to sensitive for this stuff. But I want to show support and some other volunteers will probably attend I would try to sit with them. Also it's going to be over an hour and a half away. It's in July still have time to think. I just bought a card to send to her. Is that enough?
So what would you do?
It's an hour and a half away. It's not someone in your family or someone you are close with. If it makes you uncomfortable you should not force yourself to go.

@wallflwr926 my plan will be to do relief during the day for the rest of the summer. See how that goes I just hate restraints and want no part of it. Working overnights it doesn't happen. Day time obviously it's a part of the job. So conflicted. But I did overnights all last week and what's left of this week and I can't do this again.

I only have a wedding band. I am happy with that. I wasn't engaged. We decided to get married and then did it. I like that it was mutual.
A few people made comments like oooh well maybe in a few years on an anniversary tor husband will get you and engagement ring. It's weird to me to hear that.
First, why do people think I need and engagement ring after I am married? Second. We picked out our bands together so I already got what I wanted. My band is the only piece of jewelry I wear. Jewelry is just not my style.
Only bringing this up because it just happened again. And I'm surprised it keeps happening.
People are so entitled and nosy.
My engagement ring is a very small diamond. It was my mother-in-laws first ring and I love it. I've never wanted something big. But I keep hearing how I should be dropping hints for an upgrade. Lol

I never expected comments like that. But maybe because I am just not the type to make them? Simple is good. Fancy is good. There is no uniform engagement/wedding bands. It's supposed to be whatever floats your boat. People are strange
Yeah I'd never make those commend either. I'm very much a "you do you" person. I have no interest in other people's stuff. LOL
My sister-in-law picked out a "non-traditional" engagement ring for this area (emerald I think) and all of her older relatives were hair patting her and suggesting ways to "make it work".

It was SO GOOD. My shoulders felt relaxed for the first time in however.
There was an awkward moment when she misjudged some distance and a finger grazed...an area. We both ignored it (or she didn't notice) and then I'm just laying there thinking "keep looking relaxed and happy...but not TOO happy."
