Stillness

I got the call this evening, my grandma passed away while I was at youth group. Such a weird mix of emotions. Sadness for the loss of a life loved. Sadness for my grandpa, and him losing the one who he loved most in life. And sadness for my mom losing her mom. I can't even imagine!
But relief, because I'm no longer waiting for the call. I got the call, and can now move into grieving mode. I'm trying to find a flight, and figure out how to get there and back, dancing around my summer schedule which picks up this week. Luckily, knowing this could happen at any moment, most everything is covered, or I am able to pass it off.
I'm kind of just sitting here in shock at the moment. Not sure what to think or do.
And, hoping to find a cheap flight.
On the bright side, I was surrounded by people I love when I got the news.
My uncle passed away when I was in high school, also on a Wednesday. I also went to youth group.
I guess it's a good place to grieve...even when you're the one in charge!
