Early morning calls

[flossybeth]

Received a text from my husband at 8.30 telling me my mum was trying to get in touch - sinking feeling (along with, can it wait until after I've done school drop off). So I gave her a ring and asked her if it important and could it wait 30 minutes. No, she had to tell me now - even worse of a sinking feeling.

 

Turns out my 72 year old aunt is getting married

 

Great news, although I really to get my mum to work on her news breaking skills - yes I'm very happy for my Aunt but it really could have waited 30 minutes!

Ha ha. Could be worse. I've been here six years and never had a phone call. I got the news that my grandad had died, and one of my friends via Facebook. :-/

My husband was told his mum had passed away via Facebook ....... about 7 weeks ago. He only got to actually speak to a family member about two weeks after her funeral. Everything was done via Facebook, email, and we attended her funeral via Skype. First world communications eh
