The last few days have had a shadow over them as my Wife's Sister's Mother-in-law was in palliative care for the final countdown.
Final Child is still a believer in the Fat Man (not me), we have our suspicions but he's a canny child and a sack full is a sack full. After that had been pillaged we received the news Old Dear had indeed gone to Jesus. Of all the days. So for the rest of eternity Christmas Day will be also known as the day Grandma passed.
Lunch at Mrs George's Aunty's was nice though. Good food, good people. Cousin Anthony now has a 2013 Ford Focus ST with an import 2.5(?) litre and a turbo literally made at Boeing. He says it needs a few dyno runs to tune it but should be good for 250ish hp. Cousin Chris was the usual pain though. He has to add his part to Every. Single. Fucking. Sentence. and for some reason I'm the one he needs to impress the most. And the more I tried to ignore him, the more he addressed his idiotic comments directly to me. Ugh.
Dinner was good though. We ended up at aforementioned Sister-in-law's and while they were understandably still quite upset, I think we were the welcome distraction. BBQ dinner, novelty antlers and bubble mix all helped perk up a weird old day.
