What a day it has been..........

Well, today Tuesday was a very difficult day for most of the family. All the family from far away left and thank God arrived at their destinations safely which is a huge blessing!
I felt soooo empty and sad today! I missed my family tremendously and Grandpa...
wow! What a void I felt in my soul! I felt so empty!
In the morning, after I dropped Austin off, I went to Tios Elvin and Linette's house and stayed there until Yamel left for the airport. Tia made some delicious pancakes which I ate very happily. Then, I went to Ivette's house and washed my truck...Ivette made a very delicious lunch. The afternoon seem to go on forever. I cried often throughout the day and specially after I would think of Grandpa and see his photos around the house.
At night, Judy, Ivette and I got together as well and we went out to eat to help our depression! We all had the same kind of day...extremely sad and just wanted to be together with our family. Thanks Jude and Ivette for helping me feel a little bit better for a while. I think that it helped all of us.
Thank God for family! Thank you for reading this post on how I felt today. It's therapy to write about it.

Lichi de esa misma forma me sentía hoy, me parecía que la casa era demasiado grande y callada, estaba muy deprimida, pero estuvimos un rato en casa de mima con Iyita y después me sentí mucho mejor. Mi corazón se me aprieta cada vez que pienso que mi padre ya no está. No entiendo como vivir sin un ser tan querido que sepas que ya no existe.
Te quiero mucho, eres muy especial para mi.

As long as you have Love in your Heart, you'll never be alone. Our thoughts are with you in this difficult time, & we all know there's gonna be a glorious reunion in the near future. It's gonna be sweet!!

Nice words cousin. Thanks for sharing as you can imagine those of us who left also felt an empty sadness to return home and leave our wonderful family.

The important thing is to re-establish the normal routine and live our lives to the fullest, and especially for Pipo, who gave us such a wonderful gift through his examples.

I love you all!
