That Work Thing: One Thing I Am Grateful For

I am grateful that the company I work for gives us Breavement Pay.

My Aunt Grace died unexpectedly last week and her funeral was this afternoon. Grace was my dad’s last sibling to pass away.  My mom was very close to her and took her passing very hard.

It was really nice to have the day off with pay so I could be there for my mom and my cousins.  Lots of tears, hugs and laughter were shared.

Lots of memories. 

My Aunt Grace was a good lady.

After the funeral my mom, sister, brother, niece and two of my cousins went out for a late lunch.  It was nice.  Relaxing.  We shared stories and laughed some more.

Now I am relaxing at home.  My pup is sleeping at my feet while I watch TV.

I am grateful to be paid for today. 

Life is good.
