#not asking for sympathy or well wishes or whatever. my grandmother died on friday.
#she was sick for about 2 months. honestly to an extent it's kind of a relief that she's not suffering anymore.
#i cried on friday. i haven't cried since. but i've had waves of having to remember she's gone that make me sad.
#this is the grandma who taught me to crochet. and basically to cope i've thrown myself into sewing and crocheting and knitting.
#i didn't really realize that's what i was doing to cope but now i'm realizing this is what i'm doing.
#but literally after getting the text that she was gone i got an email that one of the shows i'm working on fell into chaos
#from 2 people catching covid and one losing their voice and having to throw on a bunch of understudies.
#but i was like i can't think of that i gotta go be with my family. i can maybe deal with that later.
#so after we collected her stuff from the nursing home and sat at home for a few hours i went to that theater to get my mind off of things
#and going there and dealing with chaos that wasn't my life made me feel a little better. getting to sew some repairs helped.
#the director at one point turned to me and said 'what a day. from 2 understudies to 6.'
#and i said 'yeah. i saw your email and i was like this is really the worst day of my life.' but she thought i was joking.
#i was sort of joking but sort of not. seeing that email on top of leaving work early to run home was too much for my brain in that moment.
#(i also have not told anyone in that show that it happened. they had no clue what my morning had been like.)
#then apparently after i left the show before intermission someone ripped a costume. so saturday i went back to the theater
#to sew a patch under the tear to fix it. and do a little more fixes.
#then i hung out with my brother and his girlfriend and i crocheted while we watched survivor.
#and today i finished up a knitting project i started a while ago (Ranger Cowl) and crocheted more stuff for another show.
#and now i'm knitting a hat for my brother that i promised him last winter and put off for a while.
#so yeah. yay crafts. yay crafting therapy.
#(also don't worry. i didn't find out she was gone via text. my brother called me to say it was imminent. then a text 45min later confirmed.)
#(and my family has encouraged me to keep working on my various shows through this since it does help me to have things to do)
#(my mom had initially wanted me to stay at work friday morning because otherwise we'd just be sitting around feeling sad. but i left.)
#(but my supervisor at work and costume head at the other show who do know told me to not come in tomorrow)
