Whirlwind weeks

This week and next are sure to be crazy/busy for me. This has been my mind since 4pm this afternoon:

Call the vet to see if I can board the pets there this weekend, check. Call ENDO's office to make sure order for my blood work was submitted so I can get it done this afternoon, check. ENDO's receptionist says he has an open appt Friday morning, Feb 11 - not good, because I could be on a plane to the east coast at the time, but told her I'd call her back to see if it was still open if I don't have to travel Friday morning.

On the way to blood draw, mom calls with the funeral details - next Wednesday, Feb 16th, not this weekend. Relieved - I now have breathing room after two days in the MP office on Wed/Thu, and maybe I can still get that appt on Friday with ENDO. 

Got the Friday appt, yay. Still in transit to get blood drawn, call sister to start figuring out what day they should leave. She says mom forgot about dad's appt that could be on Wed next week....Ok, tail spin time. Blood draw. Home. Dad's appt is this Thu, not next Mon/Tue/Wed, good to go. Note - two hotels within 5 mins of cousins' house. Note - if I go, I'd have to leave Monday night so I could get a day of work in - I'm supposed to be designing a new database! - but I can come back with them on Thursday.

Check work email. Boss says Fri/Mon off is Ok. But now funeral is next Wed, what to do.....make travel arrangements for my parents/sister. Check work calendar and notice dad has another appt (let's just say it has to do with the 'exit area of his body') set for Wed the day of the funeral. Mom will reschedule. Call brother-in-law & sister to coordinate flights for her and mom/dad. Flights coordinated for coinciding arrival/departure times, car rental, hotel, check, check, check. Book my flights, check. Email boss with appt and flight info, check. Anything else?, check.....

I'm tired just thinking about the two weeks that are ahead of me. In the middle of it all, I have my ENDO appt on Friday - I've got a few questions for him which I hope he can clarify for me, and hopefully he'll be able to tell me what the plan is for my unidentifiable tissue, and tell me if my meds still need to be tweaked. To round it out, I hope it is not cold/snowing/miserable weather in New York next week - that would not be the best way to send someone off into the afterlife.
