Feels like a long day

Started by getting up at 10:00, expecting to hear from my therapist. She did call, a bit before 11 and I told her everything that was going on.
Then I had coffee, and showered, and
mashfanficchick ordered food to be delivered to zer mother's house, and we left for there. It was raining a little.
Cousin Linda had texted me yesterday asking me to call her so I did, and when we eventually got to talk, she wants to come visit Oldest Brother, along with Cousin Steve. I said I would ask Oldest Brother if that was something he would like. She also filled me in on the family doings. Rick and Martha are expecting another baby, and Erika is getting married.
I also called middle Brother's group home twice, and there was no answer either time. Very odd, i hope the phone isn't out of order, which has happened before.
Anyway, after the food was delivered and we ate, we worked in the house. RK brought over some packing stuff
mashfanficchick ordered from U-Haul. He stayed for awhile.
We left at 5:00 because I was supposed to meet the Kid and her boyfriend at the hospital at 6:00. I got there a little after 6"00 and they were still on the way.
Oldest Brother has been moved to the hospice unit. It is very peaceful, and the room is very nice, with a couch and a chair. He was about the same as he's been. The Kid and her boyfriend arrived somewhat after 7:00, and we had a lovely visit, really. The visiting hours seem to be different, they didn't make the announcement that they were over til 9:00. We stayed til the end, and sang Happy Birthday. He seemed to enjoy our visit.
They Ubered home, I took the bus. I got here in time to Skype the FWiB. Then I fed the pets and made dinner, and then called Linda back.
And now
mashfanficchick is calling about plans for tomorrow.
Anyway, one other sad thing, my friend Lynn S, the one Chris and I went to visit last fall, died last night from the pancreatic cancer. The same thing Oldest Brother has. I emailed Chris to let him know. I knew Lynn wasn't doing well but I didn't think it would be this fast.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Linda and the rest of the family.
3. Smoked salmon crepe for lunch.
4. Oldest Brother seemed to enjoy himself.
