All was nice and as we are. Lili put some pictures over the coffin, a couple of stuffed animals at each side and a crochet blanket very similar to one she gave me for my birthday 3 years ago.
It was very hot though and my feet were so swollen that in some minutes I´ll go and place them high.
Tomorrow I will have to have another long time standing up. Dixie will take me to the place at the cemetary where they later incinerate the dead.
This is not yet a common custom in my country. But it is our custom.
I am tired and I only want to lie down for a while. It is not late, but I need my feet in better shape.
I´ll come later, my friends

I do not feel going to wakes. It just makes me sad.

I was sad enough for Lili and for her mother when she was so ill. Now everybody will be in peace
